Polymeric Adsorbents Market Forecasts to 2030 – Global Analysis By Product (Methacrylic (Methacrylic Ester Copolymer), Modified Aromatic (Brominated Aromatic Matrix), Aromatic (Crosslinked Polystyrenic Matrix) and Other Products), Type, Process, Application, End User and By Geography


According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Polymeric Adsorbents Market is accounted for $130.0 million in 2023 and is expected to reach $215.6 million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period. Polymeric adsorbents are materials composed of polymer molecules that have been designed to selectively capture and remove specific substances from a solution or gas mixture through adsorption. Adsorption is a process where molecules of a solute adhere to the surface of a solid material, known as the adsorbent. They are utilized in various applications such as purification processes in industries like pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, water treatment, and environmental remediation.

According to a report published by the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately half a million deaths occur every year across the globe due to unsafe food, with most of the affected people being children under the age of five.
