DRIVING FACTORS

"Increasing Need for Clean Water to Amplify Market Growth"

Availability of clean water is highly important to maintain good health. Consuming contaminated water can led to many health complications such as diarrhea, and food poisoning. This has increased the demand for clean water among people. Alumina ceramic membranes can be used to effectively filter out impurities from water.

The use of these membranes is not just limited to producing clean and pure water. They also have numerous applications in the medical sector, food, and beverage industry, and also biotech industries. Most of the industries need water treatment solutions that are cost-effective and efficient. Ceramic membranes are considered to be ideal for filtering impurities from water. They have very small pores and allow only the smallest of impurities to pass through. These membranes are used in the food and beverage industry, as they help in increasing the shelf life of the products by removing impurities from them. All of these factors have helped in the growth and development of the market.

"Use of Alumina Ceramic Membranes in Oil and Gas Sector to Propel Market Growth "

These membranes have wide range of applications, and are adopted in many industries including oil and gas. Crude oil has a lot of impurities and it is crucial to purify crude oil and gas before processing them into various other substances. Alumina membranes are suitable in such situations. They are used for upstreaming and down streaming oil, gas and water in order to purify and separate them

By using these membranes in the oil industry, contamination of surroundings is also reduced. Implementing alumina ceramic membranes is not a cost-effective method of purification, but it is also an eco-friendly way of taking out the impurities. Therefore, there will be no negative impact on the environment. All of these factors are increasing the alumina ceramic membrane market share.

RESTRAINING FACTOR

"Energy Intensive Production Process Involved in Production of Alumina Ceramic Membranes to Decrease Market Growth"

An important factor that can restrain the growth and development of the market is the complexity involved in production. Manufacturing alumina membranes is an energy intensive procedure and require large amount of power. This in turn increases the cost involved making it expensive. This can hinder the development of the market.

Both the operational and capital costs that are associated with ceramic membrane systems are also high. This makes them less affordable and competitive in a market where there are cheaper options available for manufacturers. Lack of standardization in producing these membranes can be another negative influence on the market.
