Global Ceramic Membrane Market Overview
Ceramic membranes have high abrasion resistance and are extremely durable. They are one of the artificial membranes made from inorganic materials such as titania, alumina, zirconia, and others. These materials are chemically, thermally, and mechanically stable and are mostly bio-inert. Thus, they are ideal for many applications in the chemical processing and pharmaceutical industry and in water & wastewater treatment industry. They generally are composed of an asymmetrical structure and usually have two to three different levels of porosity. An intermediate level of layer is often applied to decrease the overall surface roughness. When in application, these membranes are grouped together often in housing and show excellent properties such as high temperature stability, resistance to chemical activity, a high degree of operational efficiency under varying pressure ranges among others. The global ceramic membrane market accounted for US$ 5.2 billion in 2019 and is estimated to be US$ 15.8 billion by 2029 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 11.9%.
Impact of COVID-19 on the market
Amid the COVID-19 crisis, the global market for ceramic filters estimated at US$1.5 Billion in the year 2020, is projected to reach a revised size of US$3.7 Billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 14.3% over the period 2020-2027. As economies around the world are suffering from the impact of Covid-19, businesses are experiencing losses, workers are without jobs, and many face the challenge of a complete upheaval of lifestyle. However, pharmaceutical companies taking centre stage in the Covid-19 fight. The biotech entities are investigating SARs-Cov-2 at an unprecedented rate and a significant amount of funds are being put into the R&D. With the several candidates in trial, the public and private sectors are expected to work in unison for the estimative period, until a vaccine is developed for Covid-19. This report will quantify the impact of this pandemic on the ceramic membrane market.
Global Ceramic Membrane Market Dynamics
Due to the growing demand for potable water, concerns about water scarcity and water desalination processes are expected to rise during the forecast period. According to an article published by “United States Water Purifier Market Forecast & Opportunities, 2020”,the water purifier market in the US is expected to grow at a moderate growth rate of 6% for the forecasted period 2015-20. In the same article it was stated that Midwest states of the US were accounted for the largest share of the country’s water purifier demand, followed by the Western states in the year 2014, this increase in the need of pure water increases the demand of the ceramic membrane which helps in the growth of the market. Wastewater purification is the largest application industry of ceramic membranes, which accounted for more than half of the total ceramic membrane market in 2014. Due to the growing demand for potable water, concerns about water scarcity and water desalination processes are expected to rise during the forecast period.
Demand from the end-user industry
Ceramic membranes are used in a wide range of end user industries, such as biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, dairy, food & beverages, chemical and petrochemical, microelectronics, metal finishing, and power generation. Pharmaceutical applications are one of the most promising segments and the segment is expected to witness robust growth over the forecast period. In the industry they are used for a variety of purposes including pharmaceutics separation from wastewater, oil water separation, germs & virus retention, organic solvent filtration, separation of dyes & pigments, acids & caustic filtration, among others. In pharmaceutical applications, the usage of conventional membranes is not suitable owing to their efficiency, ability and economic factors and hence, the industry has started shifting its focus towards usage of ceramic membranes. In the food & beverage industry, ceramic membranes are employed for a variety of application such as juice, wine & beer clarification, juice concentration, sterilization, separation and fractionation of milk and whey, as well as desalination of whey, product dewatering, as well as drinking water purification.
Conversely, high initial capital investments and heavier weight compared to the polymeric membrane are anticipated to hamper the growth of the global ceramic membrane market during the forecast period.
