Cross-flow Membrane Equipment and Consumable Revenue to Top $19 Billion In 2019
The sales of cross-flow membrane equipment and consumables will grow robustly
over the next four years and reach $19 billion in 2019. This is the prediction
of the McIlvaine Company in RO, UF, MF World Market. There are a number of
drivers for the growth not only in reverse osmosis (RO) but also
microfiltration, nanofiltration and ultrafiltration.
Reduced available water per capita. The world population continues to grow.
Industry and agriculture consume more water. Due to pollution and other factors,
the amount of available potable water is not increasing.
Decreasing costs of desalination as opposed to alternatives.
Growth in ultrapure water demand at power, semiconductor and pharmaceutical
plants.
Tougher wastewater discharge limits.
Continuing population shifts to more arid regions.
Countries with the lowest amounts of rainfall per capita are among the fastest
growing. Within countries there is a continuing population shift to more arid
regions e.g. shrinkage in the Northeast U.S. and growth in the Southwest. There
are two sources of additional water supply. If the region abuts the sea,
desalination becomes an increasingly attractive option. Water reuse is often the
most economical option. The average power plant is near enough to a municipal
wastewater treatment plant to economically utilize the discharge. However,
cross-flow membrane technology is required to bring the water up to the quality
needed.
The fastest growing market for cross-flow membranes revolves around gas turbine
combined cycle plants. Low cost gas is making these generators the choice for
the majority of power plants. The cross-flow membrane technology is needed to
provide the ultrapure boiler feedwater and also to purify the wastewater from
cooling and other processes.
There are some very attractive niche areas. The use of cross-flow membranes in
biotechnology and other pharmaceutical processing is increasing. The membranes
provide product separation. The food industry also uses cross-flow membranes in
dairy, wine and other production operations. The oil and gas industry has
increased its cross-flow membrane use due to the need for hydraulic fracturing
in the extraction process.
