什麼是離子交換膜?
離子交換膜 (IEM) 是一種薄的半透片或薄膜,設計用於從水處理廠的流體中分離陽離子和陰離子。它依賴於能夠從流體流中分離、濃縮和排除離子物質的離子物質。它以氯鹼、碳氫化合物、全氟化碳、無機、複合和部分鹵化變體的形式被廣泛使用。與傳統離子交換膜相比,它更具成本效益,有助於去除溶解的無機離子和再生樹脂。 IEM 也用於電解、色譜分離和水軟化過程,以去除水中的鈣、鎂和有毒金屬。
COVID-19大流行的爆發為離子交換膜產業帶來了嚴重的問題,給許多國家帶來了前所未有的挑戰。社交距離規範和封鎖措施的執行導致企業縮減產能或暫時暫停生產過程。此外,由於冠狀病毒在全球廣泛傳播,勞動力短缺也出現了。由於運輸限制,化學、廢水、石油和天然氣等各種最終用途產業停產,導致對離子交換膜的需求下降。此外,有限的跨境流動也阻礙了離子交換膜的進出口。多重檢查和碼頭的引入增加了運輸成本,並導致整體供應略有延遲。除此之外,由於商品和服務流動受到限制以及勞動力短缺,許多參與者面臨巨大損失。然而,隨著部分業務重新開放,離子交換膜的需求預計將增加。因此,疫情後,由於人們對增強安全和健康的意識不斷增強,全球範圍內對離子交換膜的需求不斷增加。
目前,對IEM生產綠色氫氣的需求不斷增加是積極影響市場的主要因素之一。此外,各國管理機構都鼓勵採用清潔和攜帶式水,這正在加強市場的成長。除此之外,醫療保健領域擴大利用入耳式微電極來治療腎衰竭並清除個體中的毒素和身體廢物,這提供了積極的市場前景。此外,化學工業中生產燒鹼、燒鹼以及氯和氫基礎化學產品對 IEM 的需求不斷成長,也促進了市場的成長。除此之外,各國不斷增加的廢水處理項目以鼓勵消費和使用安全衛生的水,也支持了市場的成長。此外,全球眾多產業對有效廢水和放射性廢液處理解決方案的需求不斷增加。與此一致的是,IEM 的採用越來越多,因為它們有助於去除廢水中的硬度、重金屬和雜質,為行業投資者提供了利潤豐厚的成長機會。

The market structure is moderately fragmented with the presence of a large number of global and regional players operating in the industry due to the increase in innovations and emergence of small regional players. 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.
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.
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.
