Global Membrane Bioreactor System Market Size, Trends, and Analysis- Forecasts to 2026 By Product (Hollow Fiber, Flat Sheet, Multi-Tubular), By Configuration (Submerged, Side Stream), By Application (Municipal Wastewater Treatment, Industrial Wastewater Treatment), By Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, MEA, and CSA); End-User Landscape, Company Market Share Analysis & Competitor Analysis
The global membrane bioreactor systems market is valued at USD 7.5 billion in 2021 to reach a value of USD 12.5 billion by 2026, with a CAGR value of 6.2%. Rising concerns regarding the shortage of fresh water and increasing water pollution levels have compelled the international and national governments to introduce stringent rules and regulations to install water treatment systems and eradicate contaminated solids present in the industrial waste water flows. The rising water scarcity is increasing the awareness among countries to install recycling systems or wastewater treatment plants that enable the industries to reuse the water for other utilities. Also, the increasing urbanization, construction projects, commercialization, and infrastructural development, mining, and agricultural activities are the leading cause behind water wastage and water pollution. The urban and developed cities are facing tremendous water shortage issues. Increasing population in countries is resulting in more water usage as well as wastage, causing scarcity of water. The release of contaminated substances into water flows, sludge effluents, and other activities are adversely affecting the availability of freshwater for usage and are creating environmental issues. Hence with the rising water pollution and industrialization, the market for membrane bioreactor system will grow rapidly from 2021 to 2026.
Membrane Bioreactors are extensively beneficial as they facilitate high-quality output even when applied domestically. The incorporation of membrane bioreactor systems in wastewater treatment plants is more efficient and has better usability as compared to the conventional water treatment methods. The launch of technologically advanced bioreactors have helped gain recognition and established in the market. The cost-effective nature of the membrane bioreactor systems has attracted many end-users to apply them in water treatment and reuse industrial wastewater efficiently.
Based on product type of the bioreactors, the market is segmented into hollow fiber, flat sheet, multi-tubular. Hollow fibers are most significantly used in the membrane bioreactor system market and hence have the largest share. These fibres are extensively beneficial for filtration processes like microfiltration, and are extremely narrow in diameter so that they render a high packing density, and deliver certain specific filter configurations that are not provided by any other product. These also exhibit and process high feed streams and can break off solids. The multi-tubular membrane is expected to witness the fastest growth in the membrane bioreactor system market from 2021 to 2026
Submerged, and side stream are the two configuration segments of the membrane bioreactor market. Submerged configuration is a majorly preferred configuration in the membrane bioreactor system market and hence have the largest shares in the market. This configuration consumes an extremely low level of energy, has better efficiency in biodegradation, and a significantly low rate of fouling. The submerged configuration is also beneficial in the industrial application of membrane bioreactor systems and facilitates ease in operation when applied along with hollow fibers. The submerged configuration also facilitates flexibility and sludge retention time. These configurations are usually utilized in large-scale applications.
The side stream configuration is expected to witness gradual growth in the forecasted period. These configurations are majorly used in small-scale applications. These facilitate the ability to design and use the required size of the membrane. It also enables operational and maintenance advantages to the end-users, as compared to the submerged configuration.
On the basis of application, the market is segmented into municipal wastewater treatment, industrial wastewater treatment. The municipal wastewater treatment is the most common applicational purpose of the membrane bioreactor system market and hence holds the largest shares as of 2020. The submerged configuration is extensively used in the tanks of wastewater treatments. Increasing infrastructural projects, systems, and structures in urban cities are increasing the need for municipal wastewater treatment plants. The increasing adoption of municipal-funded wastewater treatment plans are driving the growth of the market.
As per the geographical analysis, the market can be classified into North America (the US, Canada, and Mexico), Asia Pacific (India, China, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, and Rest of Asia Pacific), Europe (Germany, United Kingdom, Italy, France, Spain, Netherlands, and Rest of Europe), Middle East & Africa (Saudi Arabia, UAE) and Central & South America (Brazil, Peru, and Rest of South America).
The Asia Pacific (India, China, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, and Rest of Asia Pacific) region will be the fastest growing segment in the membrane bioreactor system market. The countries like India and China are some of the biggest users of membrane bioreactors in the Asia Pacific region, owing to their fast progressions in urbanization, industrialization, major wastewater treatment projects, and other mining and agricultural projects. Also, other countries like Indonesia and the Philippines are significantly contributing to the demand for membrane bioreactors in the market. The growing stringent regulations in various Asia Pacific countries regarding the reuse of water and low effluent emission are increasing the awareness about water conservation and filtration, which is where the countries extensively demand membrane bioreactors. On the other hand, North America will be the largest segment in the market.
