Membrane Separation Technologies - Market Size, Market Share, Market Leaders, Demand Forecast, Sales, Company Profiles, Market Research, Industry Trends
US membrane materials demand will grow 8.3 percent annually through 2008, driven by rising penetration into water and wastewater treatment and food and beverage processing. Polymeric membranes will remain dominant while nonpolymeric types grow the fastest. Ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis applications will lead gains.
This study analyzes the $1.8 billion US membrane materials industry. It presents historical demand data (1993, 1998, 2003) and forecasts to 2008 and 2013 by membrane type (e.g., cellulosic, polysulfone and nylon, polytetrafluoroethylene, acrylic, silicone rubber, ceramic); by application (e.g., microfiltration, reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, pervaporation, gas separation, nanofiltration); and by market.
The study also examines the market environment, details industry structure and market share, and profiles 42 leading competitors including Pall, Millipore, Hydranautics, Ionics, GE Osmonics, CUNO, Dow Chemical, and Koch Membrane.
