Why Is Food and Beverage Sector Using PVDF Membranes?
The World Bank estimates that approximately 2.2 billion people across the world do not have access to safely managed drinking water services. Water pollution has become one of the greatest risks to sustainable development, economic progress, and poverty eradication, due to the gaps in the access to water supply and sanitation, surging rainfall variability, booming population, soaring pollution levels, and water-intensive patterns of growth. Thus, the burgeoning demand for clean water will boost the adoption of polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes worldwide. Moreover, the surging public awareness on the health issues arising due to the consumption of toxic food and beverages will accelerate the PVDF membrane market at a CAGR of 7.9% during 2018–2023. At this rate, the market revenue is expected to rise from $720.1 million in 2017 to $1,142.0 million by 2023. This will be because food and beverage companies use PVDF membranes to filter out toxic materials from edible products. The...
