Granular Filter Market to Exceed $1.7 Billion Next Year
Sales of granular media filters to purify water will exceed $1.7 billion in
2015. This is the latest forecast in Liquid Filtration and Media World Markets
published by the McIlvaine Company. (www.mcilvainecompany.com)
Granular Filter Market ($ Millions)
World Region 2015
Total 1,749
Africa 69
CIS 63
East Asia 724
Eastern Europe 37
Middle East 65
NAFTA 241
South & Central America 117
West Asia 280
Western Europe 153
East Asia will be the largest purchaser due to the investment in drinking and
wastewater facilities for the rapidly growing urban populations throughout the
region. West Asia will be the second largest regional purchaser with NAFTA close
behind.
Granular media filters are the first choice for drinking water plants around the
world. They are also used in wastewater plants. They are loaded with sand to
remove particulate. They can also be loaded with activated carbon to remove
contaminants which affect water taste. There is competition from membrane
filtration but granular media filter suppliers have held market share despite
the prediction that the more efficient membrane systems would greatly reduce the
granular media filter sales.
One of the biggest growth areas is in the purification of water in the oil and
gas industry. Conventional onshore oil and gas extraction requires much less
filtration than unconventional onshore and offshore extraction. One of the more
challenging applications is aboard offshore oil platforms where space and low
maintenance are of prime importance.
Another growing application is for tertiary filtration of wastewater being
discharged from municipal treatment plants. If this water is going to reused by
power plants, filtration is required. Large numbers of power plants are planning
to use treated municipal wastewater in the future.
