The volume of new entrants is low in the ion exchange membrane industry on account of the low product differentiation and switching costs.

What is an Ion Exchange Membrane?

Ion exchange membrane (IEM) is a thin semipermeable sheet or film designed for the separation of cations and anions from fluids in water treatment plants. It relies on ionic species that enable the separation, concentration, and exclusion of ionic material from the fluid flow. It is widely available as chlor-alkali, hydrocarbon, perfluorocarbon, inorganic, and composite and partially halogenated variants. It is more cost-effective and assists in removing dissolved inorganic ions and regenerating resins compared to traditional ion exchange membranes. IEM is also utilized in electrolysis, chromatographic separations, and water softening processes for removing the calcium, magnesium, and toxic metals from the water.

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has caused a severe problem for the ion exchange membrane industry and imposed unprecedented challenges on numerous countries. The enforcement of social distancing norms and lockdown measures caused players to downscale capacity or temporarily pause the production process. In addition, the shortage of labor was witnessed due to the widespread coronavirus across the globe. Due to the transportation restrictions, various end-use industries, such as chemical, wastewater, and oil and gas, shut down their operations, which declined the demand for ion exchange membranes. Moreover, the limited cross-border movement has hampered the exports and imports of ion exchange membranes. The introduction of multiple checks and terminals increased the transportation cost and caused a slight delay in overall supply. Apart from this, many players faced huge losses due to the restrictions on the movement of goods and services and the shortage of labor. However, amid partial business reopening, the demand for ion exchange membranes was expected to increase. As a result, post-pandemic, due to the rising awareness among individuals about enhanced safety and health, the demand for ion exchange membranes is rising worldwide.

Ion Exchange Membrane Market Trends:

At present, the increasing demand for IEMs to produce green hydrogen represents one of the major factors influencing the market positively. In addition, governing agencies of various countries are encouraging the adoption of clean and portable water, which is strengthening the growth of the market. Apart from this, the growing utilization of IEMs in the healthcare sector to treat renal failure and remove toxins and body waste among individuals is offering a positive market outlook. Additionally, the rising demand for IEMs in the chemical industry for manufacturing caustic soda, caustic potash, and chlorine and hydrogen-basic chemical products is contributing to the growth of the market. Besides this, the increasing wastewater treatment projects in various countries to encourage the consumption and usage of safe and hygienic water are supporting the growth of the market. Moreover, there is a rise in the need for effective wastewater and radioactive liquid waste treatment solutions across numerous industries around the world. In line with this, the increasing adoption of IEMs, as they assist in removing hardness, heavy metals, and impurities from wastewater, is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors.
