Report Includes

  • An overview of the markets and technologies for ultrafiltration membranes.
  • Analyses of global market trends, with data from 2015, estimates for 2016, and projections of CAGRs through 2021.
  • An in-depth analysis of the technical and market drivers relating to the market for ultrafiltration (UF) membrane products.
  • Evaluation of the current worth of UF modules, cassettes, dialyzers, and other devices by application.
  • Discussion covering industry structure and dynamics, along with technological developments.
  • Information on major applications of the technology: food and beverage processing, biopharmaceuticals manufacture, hemodialysis, potable water production, wastewater treatment and industrial processes.
  • Profiles of major players in the industry along with a competitive analysis.

SCOPE OF REPORT

This report presents the forecast for ultrafiltration membrane technologies for 2016 through 2021 on a volume and value basis. Value is measured in millions of U.S. dollars, unadjusted for inflation, while volume is measure in thousand square feet area units. These forecasts are further broken down by end applications. Individual end-applications are further broken down by membrane material and by geographical region. Estimated values used are based on manufacturers' revenues.

The end-user application breakdown includes:

  • Hemodialysis.
  • Industrial processes.
  • Food and beverage.
  • Potable water.
  • Biopharmaceuticals.
  • Wastewater.

The report covers the following membrane material:

  • Ceramic and others.
  • Polymers.

The regional breakdown focuses on the following geographical areas:

  • North America.
  • Europe.
  • Asia-Pacific (APAC).
  • Rest of the world (RoW).

Chapter Two, “Executive Summary,” provides a broad level breakdown of the dollar sales of UF membrane technology, by end-use application.

Chapter Three, “Overview of Ultrafiltration Membrane Technology,” defines the relevant terms, describes the evolution of ultrafiltration and provides a broad level overview of membrane materials, geographical regions and end-use applications.

Chapter Four, “Global Markets for Individual End-use Applications,” provides a qualitative and quantitative threadbare analysis of individual end-use application markets and their prospects.

Chapter Five, “Stakeholder Analysis,” defines and explains stakeholder categories, and profiles the leading companies in the UF membrane industry.

Chapter Six, “U.S. Patent Analysis,” analyzes relevant patents by categories, allottees, countries and duration.
