This third edition of Profile of the International Filtration and Separation Industry looks at all aspects, both quantitative and qualitative, of the market for filtration and separation equipment, as it exists in early 1999. It must be understood that the defining phrase should actually be read as "filtration and other mechanical separation", because filtration is a separation process, and because there are separation processes that are not covered by this report, such as distillation or adsorption. Unlike the two previous editions of the Profile, this report covers all parts of the filtration and separation industry, to better reflect the actual business undertaken by the suppliers listed in the directory section. This means that engine filters of all kinds are covered, as well as commercial and domestic water and air filters. Chapter 1 continues with an overview of the world economy. Chapter 2 covers the international filtration and separation market, with a summary of major trends, market size figures and forecasts to 2003, as well as trade data.
