IV products are used in the assisting, preventing, and treatment of various disorders, including ostomy, cancer, respiratory, and ophthalmic diseases. It includes products like catheters, cannulas, and IV fluid bags. They are used to deliver nutrients, fluids, and drugs such as antibiotics, analgesics, and antipyretics. They are also used for blood transfusions and to correction of electrolyte imbalances in patients. These products use the intravenous route of administration that allows rapid delivery of medication and fluids.

Sludge is a mixture of liquids and solids generated during the treatment of wastewater. It contains water along with different organic materials, chemicals, pathogens, and diverse microorganisms. The sludge produced by different industries comprise pollutants (heavy metals, pathogens, and organic pollutants) and compounds of agricultural value (organic matter, phosphorus, potassium, nitrogen, calcium, magnesium, and sulfur). The treatment of sludge depends on the pollution load of the treated water and the technical characteristics of the sludge. The market for industrial sludge treatment can be considered an emerging market due to the rapid industrialization and the need for fresh and clean water across the globe.

The global hip prosthesis market is growing at a steady rate and will post a CAGR of 2.57% during the forecast period. The volume in the large joint reconstruction market such as hips will grow at a steady rate during the forecast period due to healthcare policies that offer people with deductible plans, resulting in an increase in the number of hip procedures being conducted.

CRT-Ps are an advanced implantable form of conventional pacemakers. They help the heart function efficiently by monitoring its signals and coordinating with the ventricles to contract at the same time. These devices resynchronize the heart's rhythm to improve breathlessness and fatigue, and avoid dizziness and fainting in individuals. Physicians surgically implant the CRT-P under the skin, below the collarbone. They connect the electrical leads through a blood vessel into the heart. Unlike conventional pacemakers, CRT-Ps have two leads: one placed into the right ventricle and the other in the right atrium. An extra lead is implanted on the left side of the heart to stimulate the left ventricle, assisting the heart to pump efficiently. The implantation process and the use of these devices can cause infections around the implant site and damage the blood vessels, heart wall, and other organs.

Bluetooth speakers are wireless portable audio devices that receive audio signal over low-power radio waves instead of audio cables. For ideal exchange of data, the receiver should be within the defined range of wireless transfer capability of the speaker. The Bluetooth speaker market includes the following types of devices: AConly Bluetooth speakers, DC-only Bluetooth speakers, and AC/DC Bluetooth speakers.

The global aluminum market for the building and construction sector is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.1% during 2016-2020. The market is driven by the rapid industrialization in developing countries, leading to an increase in investments in building and construction. The global urban population is set to rise by more than 70% by 2050, and the global construction market is expected to reach $12 trillion by 2020.

Airport e-gates are replacing the manual verification and validation at the arrival and departure terminals. Manual checking could lead to human errors, resulting in the bypassing of a potential threat. This also leads to long waiting queues in the airport, which, in turn, lead to dissatisfied customers.

Textile chemicals are widely used in processing fiber. Some of the major processes include bleaching, dyeing, printing, conditioning, and finishing. They are also used as reducing agents, softening agents, and in sequestration. These are also easy to use due to their fluid nature and as a result of which they can be employed in a variety of reactive dye types.

A scar is a patch of fibrous tissue (containing a protein called collagen) that is formed over a wound as a consequence of the body's natural healing process. Scars are classified into keloid scars, contracture scars, hypertrophic scars, and atrophic scars based on the composition of collagen and appearance. Many non-invasive methods including chemical and physical treatment and invasive methods such as surgery are used to treat different types of scars.

The global chip manufacturing business is focused on reducing the semiconductor chip size and designs. This has been a trend in the semiconductor industry since 1965, with historical facts suggesting comprehensive growth of the market largely due to the continual reduction of cost per function performed by ICs. Growing improvements in the IC structure, i.e., increasing density of circuits, has resulted in compact and lowcost ICs. In addition, these devices gain better performance capabilities due to growing density (use of 3D architecture) that helps them execute a large number of functions at high speed with low power consumption. Thus, the demand for production equipment capable of producing advanced ICs in high volumes at the lowest possible cost is anticipated to grow during the forecast period.
