Global market for membrane bioreactors to reach US$1.3 billion by 2015 with a significant increased in applications of membrane technology creating new products and opportunities to increase efficiency and profitability of the processor. However, concerns regarding membrane fouling, high installation costs and high maintenance and operational costs still remain a major concern for industry players in the membrane bioreactors market across Asia Pacific, Middle East, Europe and the region .
Membrane bioreactor technology has been in use for a long time and has given a new dimension to wastewater treatment, water filtration and purification processes. Membrane bioreactor systems have become an effective treatment method to transform wastewater into high-quality effluent that can be discharged into the environment. World market for membrane bioreactors is projected to exceed US$1.3 billion by the year 2015. The growth is primarily driven by rising use of membrane bioreactors for commercial, industrial, offshore, shipboard and municipal applications, among others. Additionally, promising applications such as groundwater remediation, treatment of chlorinated solvents in wastewater, landfill leachate treatment contributes to the market growth. There is a significant growth in demand for membrane bioreactor systems in regions including Australia, Middle East, Iberia, India and China. Asia-Pacific dominates the world membrane bioreactors market; with Asia Pacific maintain its dominance propelled by the commissioning of Greenfield projects in several emerging markets including China, and refurbish/retrofit opportunities in other mature markets. Against this new development, World Membrane Bioreactors Conference 2011 is a timely platform for delegates to gain fresh insights for immediate implementation as well as to make informed membrane bioreactor decisions. It is an excellent time to learn more about design considerations that will ensure the best value for your dollar, smart features that guarantee trouble-free performance, and operational strategies to handle unexpected situations. If you are responsible for identifying new strategies and making critical decisions affecting your design, operations and the risks and benefits of different membrane product, either directly or indirectly, this event is a must attend for you as this is the only platform available in 2011 that you can secure a share in this lucrative multi billion dollars business across Asia Pacific, Middle East, Europe and the region.
