Ultrafiltration Membranes:Technologies and the U.S. Market

June 02, 2010

Wellesley, Mass. – According to a new technical market research report, ULTRAFILTRATION MEMBRANES: TECHNOLOGIES AND THE U.S. MARKET (MST044C) from BCC Research (www.bccresearch.com), the value of the U.S. market for ultrafiltration membranes is an estimated $932 million in 2010, but is expected to increase to more than $1.2 billion in 2015, for a 5-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%.

The U.S. ultrafiltration market is a highly fragmented business made up of widely divergent sectors. Although initially designed for industrial effluent treatment, UF has found market application in many other arenas, including hemodialysis, food and beverage processing, biopharmaceuticals manufacturing, potable water production, industrial processes for ultrapure water generation, and the recycle/recovery of water and raw materials.

Because UF applications are so varied, and often specialized, membranes, module designs, and systems are configured specifically for particular industry needs with little product standardization. For this reason, and because a large number of systems are custom-made, costs can be higher than some other membrane methods.

This BCC market research report provides an in-depth analysis of the technical and market drivers relating to the market, evaluating the current worth of UF modules, cassettes, dialyzers, and other devices by application.

It is intended for those who require a thorough analysis of the industry that traces significant developments and forecasts important trends, quantifies the various market sectors, and profiles companies active in those areas. Because of the fragmented nature of the industry, it is difficult to find studies that gather extensive data from diverse resources and analyze it in the context of a comprehensive document. This report contains a unique collection of membrane-related information and conclusions that is difficult to find elsewhere.

Senior marketing personnel, venture capitalists, executive planners, research directors, government officials, and suppliers to the membrane industry who want to discover and exploit current or projected market niches should find this report of value. Novice readers who wish to understand how regulations, market pressures, and technology interact in the ultrafiltration membrane arena also will find the study worthwhile.
