United States Membrane Bioreactor Market is predicted to proliferate significantly during the forecast period of 2024-2028. The rising need for water treatment solutions across the nation is the main factor driving the country’s market. Freshwater supplies are continually diminishing, consequently, fueling the demand for clean drinking water among consumers. The growing environmental concerns about effective sanitation and wastewater disposal are also boosting the United States membrane bioreactor (MBR) market.
A few other factors that are aiding this country’s market are the increased number of residential, commercial, and industrial complexes that presently use MBRs for wastewater and the emergence of buried MBRs. These systems are lightweight, small, cost- and energy-effective, and can aerate to produce tangential liquid flow across the membranes.
Furthermore, the increased use of eco-friendly water and wastewater management technologies in a variety of sectors, including the chemical, pharmaceutical, power, food and beverage, and textile industries, is supporting the market growth. It is anticipated that other factors, such as rapid industrialization and the enforcement of supportive government policies to replace the current wastewater treatment facilities with MBRs, will fuel the growth of the membrane bioreactor market in the United States from 2024 to 2028.
Industrial and municipal wastewater is treated using a membrane bioreactor. A perm-selective or semi-permeable membrane technology, such as microfiltration (MF) or ultrafiltration, is paired with a suspended growth bioreactor (UF). Vacuum or gravity-driven and pressure-driven systems are the two most used membrane types for MBR systems. They separate the sediments from the sludge concentration while maintaining the position of floating particles. Compared to conventional methods, they are effective against illnesses, such as cryptosporidium and giardia and have regulated biomass retention, improved effluent quality, and a low carbon impact.
MBR is a cutting-edge technology that can manage a variety of water impurities, including nitrogen, bacteria, suspended particles, pathogens, and other contaminants, present in industrial and municipal waste. For the treatment of wastewater, it is better than moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) and conventional activated sludge processes (ASP). It is used for microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF), nanofiltration (NF), and reverse osmosis. As MBRs have smaller reactor diameters and higher sludge concentrations than traditional systems, they create less sludge. Longer solid retention times (SRT) in membrane bioreactors also enable better biological treatment.
Increasing demand for Clean water Boosts Membrane Bioreactor Usage in the United States
The constantly rising population and rapid industrialization have boosted the demand for chemically treated water among consumers needing clean and drinkable water. For instance, between July 2021 and July 2022, the United States’ population expanded by 0.38%, which is somewhat higher than the historically low of 0.16%, recorded during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. This population growth has emerged as one of the primary drivers of the country's increased need for clean water, which, eventually, is expected to propel the market in the coming years.
Due to rapid industrialization in the country, the scarcity of freshwater resources has increased, and water quality has also deteriorated which has forced the governments to emphasize water treatment technologies in order to provide clean and usable water. For instance, in 2022, California surfaced as the largest manufacturing state in the United States, employing 1,541,000 workers across 24,304 enterprises. The proliferation of workers in the industrial setting has demanded the requirement of more fresh water, which has stimulated the installation of membrane bioreactors in water treatment plants.
Rising Application of Membrane Bioreactor Systems
Recent Developments
- The Navajo Water Project - Various organizations are performing excellent
work related to water. for instance, DigDeep, a nonprofit devoted to
giving clean water to every American, is one group that serves as an
inspiration. In the Navajo Nation, where 30% of people lack running water,
their Navajo Water Project brings safe, clean drinking water to houses. 2% of the
WaterSprout's 2022 earnings were given to DigDeep and its continuing
initiatives.
- The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
received more than USD 50 billion under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law
(BIL), also known as the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, which was
signed by President Biden in November 2021. These funds are used to make
revolutionary improvements to the nation's drinking water, wastewater, and stormwater
infrastructure nationwide.
- Clean Water State Revolving Fund - The Poly-Fluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) and other
developing pollutants in wastewater and stormwater infrastructure are handled
by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Legislation (BIL). The legislation provided
USD 1 billion over 5 years. States, water systems, and communities may
also use extra funds from the USD 11.7 billion in The Clean Water State
Revolving Fund General Supplemental Funds to invest in initiatives that address
PFAS in clean water infrastructure.
- The President of the United States, Joe Biden,
unveiled a plan for investing USD 111 billion in water infrastructure. The
proposal aims at delivering USD 56 billion in grants and low-cost flexible
loans to states, Tribes, territories, and underprivileged areas around the
country in order to update outdated drinking water, stormwater, and wastewater
infrastructure by scaling up current, effective initiatives.
- In 2021, Washington-based Kubota Membrane U.S.A.
Corporation, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Kubota Corporation &
headquarters, has received an order for a submerged membrane-based membrane bioreactor
wastewater treatment system for the Big Creek Water Reclamation Facility in
Fulton County, Georgia, USA.
Outline of order details
- In 2020, Toray Membrane USA Inc and M|MBR Systems LLC, a
company that offers flat-sheet membrane bioreactor systems as a service, decided
to sign an exclusive supply contract that includes MBR retrofit
applications. The new collaboration combines the knowledge of both businesses,
provides MBR solutions to the municipal and industrial industries, and focuses
on modernizing more established membrane technology.
Challenges
The operation and maintenance of the mechanical parts of membrane bioreactors, which is a complicated technology, needs technical expertise. Due to the advanced nature of MBR, a skilled and qualified crew is necessary. Apart from this, specialists are also required to manage sophisticated system maintenance as membrane degradation may lead to a significant loss of money. However, there is a shortage of skilled workforce, which is well-trained for any health hazards connected to chemical handling and cleaning, for MBR operations. This serves as a huge setback for the United States membrane bioreactor market.
