Challenges

  • Inability to Remove Chemicals
  • Lack in the Availability of Raw Materials
  • High Production Costs

Activated carbon filters are very expensive and not everyone can afford them. People prefer conventional methods for the purification of the water rather than purchasing an activated carbon filter. These filters are attached to many types of components that are not cost-effective, hence, the selling price also increases. Therefore, it is anticipated to restrain the market’s growth.


Market Segmentation

The global activated carbon filter market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by application into industrial water pollution treatment, drinking water purification, food & beverage, pharmaceutical, and others. Out of these types of segments, the industrial water pollution treatment segment is estimated to gain the largest market share over the projected time frame. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the presence of large amounts of waste generated by industrial dumps, which is then thrown in the rivers that can be a source of pure water. A report released in 2021 suggests that industries dump approximately 300–400 MT of polluted waste into the water every year across the globe. Additionally, the unavailability of fresh and clean water is another factor that contributes to the expansion of industrial water pollution treatment, which is further forecast to escalate the activated carbon filter market. With rapid urbanization, India has almost 70% of its surface water is unfit for consumption. Also, around 40 million liters of wastewater enter rivers every year.

The global activated carbon filter market is also segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by type into stainless steel shell, carbon steel shell, and others. Amongst these segments, the stainless steel shell segment is expected to garner a significant share. Stainless steel is highly utilized, since it comprises more chromium content than a carbon steel shell, therefore, it can also handle better heat distribution. Furthermore, the carbon steel shells are observed to be more prone to rusting, on the other hand, stainless steel is less corrosive. Owing to which, it can deal with severe weather conditions. As of 2021, the total global production volume of stainless steel was estimated to be around 60 million tons.
