A research study titled, “Membrane Bioreactor Systems Market by Application, Type,
and Configuration - Global Industry Analysis and Forecast to 2025” published by
Crystal Market Research, states that the membrane bioreactor systems market is
projected to be around $6 billion by 2025.
Membrane bioreactor
technology combines membrane filtration and biologically activated sludge
process. It is an advanced technology for wastewater treatment that has
successfully applied at an ever increasing rate around the world. Conventional
activated sludge processes (CAS) cannot cope with either fluctuations in
wastewater flow rate or composition of wastewater. MBR is a process variation
on conventional CAS processes. The MBR process includes a suspended growth
activated sludge system which uses a membrane for solid/liquid separation. This
compact system produces a high quality effluent which is suitable for reuse
applications and can be used as a high quality feed for reverse osmosis
treatment.
With increasing need for wastewater
treatment owing to depleting sources of freshwater and concerns related to land
and water pollution, MBR systems have emerged as a critical component in
wastewater treatment. According to the United Nations World Water Development
Report (WWDR) 2017, it is estimated that over 80% of wastewater worldwide is
released into the environment without treatment. With increasing shortage of
freshwater around the world, now technologies related to MBR systems are being
developed to treat industrial and municipal wastewater.
The hollow fiber MBR
segment held a major share of the global membrane bioreactor systems market in
2016. Hollow fibers have high packing density because of the small strand
diameter. As the strands are highly flexible, certain filter configuration
which cannot be achieved using other treatment systems can be achieved using
hollow fiber MBRs. Flat sheet MBR segment held the second largest share of the
global MBR systems market in 2016.

Municipal wastewater
treatment segment held the largest share of the MBR systems market in 2016
owing to their improved capabilities in treating wastewater for large
populations and their low footprint. The market is expected to witness robust
growth over the forecast period. According to the WWDR 2017, high-income
countries treat about 70% of their industrial and municipal wastewater on an
average. The trends drop to 38% and 28% from upper middle income and lower
middle income countries.
On the basis of
configuration, submerged MBRs are anticipated to witness impressive growth over
the forecast period. These MBRs are highly efficient for treatment of polymeric
industrial wastewater. Submerged MBRs are widely used in municipal wastewater
treatment processes using low pressure membrane modules. These membranes
consume low energy and allow compactness in design. In sidestream
configuration, membrane modules are installed outside the bioreactor. They are
commercially used in industrial applications for high-strength wastewater.
Emerging markets such as
China, India and other emerging economies in Asia-Pacific are expected to
dominate the global MBR systems market over the forecast period, due to rising
demand for treatment of municipal wastewater in these countries. With rising
population and scarcity of freshwater sources, wastewater treatment is emerging
as one of the primary focuses in governance and administration in these
countries.
The key players in this
market emphasize on increasing their presence in the global market through
collaborations such as mergers, acquisitions and agreements. For instance, in
March 2017, Suez Environnement Company along with Caisse de dépôt et placement
du Québec (CDPQ), acquired GE Water & Process Technologies from General
Electric Company in order to strengthen its position in the global MBR systems
market.

Market Opportunities
Development
of novel techniques and processes for improving the efficiency of membrane
bioreactors hold the key opportunities for future applications of MBR systems.
Technologies such as electrically enhanced bioreactor systems are being studied
to improve wastewater purification methodologies. Such systems use electric
currents to remove contaminants from wastewater. These systems can prove more
efficient in treating wastewater and are considerably less susceptible to
membrane fouling. With development of MBR systems which consume less power and
produce high quality effluents, MBR systems market will witness lucrative
growth over the forecast period.
