Market Growth Factors
The rapid growth of the global pharmaceutical industry is critical for a positive global market outlook. The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is increasing the demand for personalized medicines, biopharmaceuticals, and cell-based products, all of which require the effective separation of complex biological products. Consequently, these systems improve resin yield and recovery, and reduce waste and water consumption by exploiting electrostatic charge as well as density, shape, polarity, solubility, diffusivity, and volatility of the separating materials.
Market growth is expected to be fueled by an increase in the use of magnetic separators in commercial production of plastics and chemicals. The market is also benefitting from advancements in upstream bioprocessing, which reduce the number of steps involved in removing biohazardous by-products. The biotechnological institutes, therefore, have been adopting high-performance gas and supercritical fluid chromatography, centrifugation and electrophoresis instruments to separate these sensitive high molecular weight compounds.
Growing infrastructural developments in the healthcare industry in developing economies and a rapid surge in biotechnology-specific research & development (R&D) activities across the globe are expected to propel the market for commercial biotechnology separation systems over the forecast period. The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the use of commercial biotechnology separation systems for creating critical biopharmaceuticals including vaccines.
