"PS & PES is projected to be the second-largest subsegment type, in terms of value, under the polymeric segment"
PES (Polyethersulfone) owns exceptional properties such as thermal stability, mechanical strength, high flux, and chemical resistance and thus is known to be a high-performance thermoplastic polymer. In hollow fiber ultrafiltration systems, PES is used as the support layer, which provides high structural stability to the membrane and facilitates permeate flow. This support layer ,which is porous in nature, allows solvents to pass through it and retains the active layer that performs the separation. The high compaction resistance property of PS (polysulfone) makes it a better material to use under high pressure conditions. It is stable in aqueous acids and bases and many non-polar solvents; however, it is soluble in dichloromethane and methyl pyrrolidone.
"Food & beverage accounted for the third-largest share of the application subsegment of the hollow fiber ultrafiltration market, in terms of value, under the industrial segment"
The food & beverage industry is highly competitive and dynamic in nature. In the past few years there has been an increase in awareness regarding health. Due to this, there is a demand for high-quality products which are safe and nutritious. Therefore, utilizing the right membrane filtration solution to accomplish the required goal is necessary. In this sector utilizing membranes has become a necessity as it helps in processing milk, cheese, and whey proteins. Utilizing the efficient membrane filtration technology helps this industry's manufacturers to concentrate, clarify, and purify products, including bottled water, juice, and wine. They can also be used for enzyme recovery, processing cheese whey, and removal of pathogens from milk.
"Middle East & Africa is the fourth-largest market for hollow fiber ultrafiltration"
Middle East & Africa holds the fourth-largest market share globally in the hollow fiber ultrafiltration market due to several key factors. The region has less than 1% of water resources for domestic and industrial consumption. Around 5% of the world's population resides in the region and has very scarce water resources, posing the major threat of water scarcity. Population growth and limited freshwater resources are some of the major reasons for the reuse and recycling of wastewater in the region. Increasing urbanization and improving the Middle East & Africa's business environment will further drive water & wastewater treatment activities. The region has multinational membrane manufacturing companies and innovation firms in water technology.
