In order to be competitive and to be ready to reply to customers’ needs it is a necessary to be able to anticipate market trends.
Also in filtration and separation market is possible to rely on studies and sector researches that track global events, social developments and needs distributed for different geographical areas of the world in limited periods.
Thanks to this research, scientists and economists estimate that the industrial filtration market is going to grow significantly. In 10-year period this market will rise up from $ 98.13 billion in 2021 to about $ 152.05 billion by 2023.
This growth refers to the development and engineering of systems and devices useful for the filtration and retention of harmful substances and pollutants that contaminate water, air and soil.
Any industrial activity that produces products or services always involves the emission of pollutants and the exploitation of available raw materials.
This is especially true for companies operating in the chemical, pharmaceutical, mineral processing personal care, and manufacturing sectors.
The use of filtration and purification systems in this area is absolutely necessary: air filters to limit the emission of substances, filters on gases discharged into the environment. The segments most attentive about new advanced-technology solutions in filtration activity as well the limitation of toxic substances are the chemical and petrochemical industry, as well as the healthcare industry. It is important to note that all sectors related to this induced are also involved in the adoption of filtration systems: just think of transport and distribution and related infrastructures.
What has happened due to the Covid 19 pandemic from 2020 has accelerated even more the need to use industrial filtration systems, in public places, hospitals, companies, domestic environments in all realities with dense concentration of people. It is precisely the spread of Covid 19 that has been the driving force and will continue to be the trigger that characterizes the development and increase in volume of the industrial filtration market.
Experts say that in heavily urbanized areas, filtration systems are indispensable since it is in these areas that the greatest consumption of energy, raw materials with consequent waste also to be understood as emissions into the air or groundwater is concentrated. A concrete example can be found in countries such as China or India. In these areas characterized by highest percentages of population the recycling and purification systems are not always ensured. Here the systems of proper drainage or conveyance of water with sewer networks aqueducts and suitable pipelines filtration is the only solution to protect health and pursue the basic standards of hygiene.
Moreover in these areas starting from September 2021 the governments themselves have implemented programs to control air quality and limit pollutants: the Indian Central Pollution Control Board announced the launch of a program whose name is national Air Quality Monitoring program (also called NAMP) in order to prevent, control and reduce air pollution (oxides of nitrogen and sulfor dioxide in various cities). For sure the filtration industry is expected to boost the request of filters and so this will have consequences on filtration and separation market.
This is not the only example and concrete case that will affect the filtration market. Other governments, aware and well attentive to the current dynamics related to air pollution, are also adopting procedures, regulations that will affect the filter sector. The Federal Water Pollution Act (FWPCA) and Clean Water Act focuses on different laws created in order to let private houses be equipped with septic systems.
All these rules and all these projects require economic expenditure, i.e. high costs, in order to be realised. Initially there are to consider the costs to equip yourself with filtration systems to which must be added the costs for energy to start and keep in operation the filtration systems that must be kept active for long continuous periods.
The experts are very confident about the data they have collected and their forecasts of growth for this market are based on various geographical areas analysed: from North America, Europe, Eurasia, Pacific, Latin America, South America and Africa.
A further benefit in using these researches is to be able to provide the industries acting in this sector with all the tools and analysis proven by the numbers. So that they are able to plan in advance the strategies and the commercial growth for the coming years. In this way, companies can structure their production to be competitive and anticipate the needs of the population in total alignment with government programs.
The analysis confirms that the market is and will continue to grow also based on what happened in previous decades.
In recent decades, even we do not consider the consequences prologued by the spread of Covid19, the need for aseptic environments has always been growing.
The population grow means purification of drinking water and also purification of foods and beverages. Together with growing population and urbanization there is the demand for clean energy, clean water, safe food, non-toxic materials and recycled products. The request is increasing day by day. In any case, the effects of production on the environment and pollution damage have always been there: with the evolution and increase of the global population, air, water and soil pollution has always been a negative result.
This can therefore confirm that over the years the need to limit and preserve the territory with the use of filtration systems has always been existing. In the future, assuming that the world population will continue to increase, these systems and therefore this type of industry will always play a fundamental and indispensable role.
