Global Geomembranes Market to grow at a CAGR of 12.16% over the period 2014-2019. Geomembranes are synthetic membrane liners used in geotechnical engineering to contain or control the flow of fluids or vapors. The two common processes used to manufacture geomembranes are calendering and extrusion; the raw materials used are polyethylene, bitumen composites, or geotextiles in combination with polymer sprays, colorants, asphalt, or elastomers. HDPE, LDPE, PVC, PP, and EPDM are the most widely used forms. Geomembranes are vital to the Waste Management, Water Management, and Mining industries

Global Gasification Market to grow at a CAGR of 13.1% over the period 2014-2019. Gasification is a thermochemical process that converts hydrocarbons such as coal, petroleum, petcoke, natural gas, and biomass into simple molecules, primarily resulting in a mixture called syngas (carbon monoxide and hydrogen) by means of partial oxidation with air, oxygen, or steam. The key advantage of gasification is its ability to perform in various designs having a reduced environmental footprint as compared to combustion technologies. There are several gasifier designs and operating conditions. The most vital component of the gasification process is the gasifier, a vessel in which the feedstock reacts with air or oxygen at high temperatures. The carbon monoxide and hydrogen ratio depends on the hydrogen and carbon content of the feedstock and the type of gasifier.

Global Fantasy Sports Market to grow at a CAGR of 10.32% over the period 2014-2019. A fantasy sport, also known as rotisserie or owner simulation or roto, is an online game that allows end-users to own a fantasy sport team along with real-life professional players. The performance of the fantasy sport team depends on the real-life performance of players. End-users participate in various fantasy sports events after paying league fees. The winners of these sports events are given cash prizes and other items such as coupons, freebies, and goods samples. Fantasy football, fantasy baseball, fantasy basketball, fantasy hockey, fantasy auto racing, fantasy golf, fantasy cricket, fantasy professional wrestling, and other fantasy sports are gaining popularity day by day worldwide. These games can be played as a daily event or may range to month-long seasons.

Global Carbon Nanotubes Market to grow at a CAGR of 14.84% over the period 2014-2019. Carbon nanotubes are cylinder-shaped graphite sheets.

Global Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) Market to grow at a CAGR of 15.4% over the period 2014-2019. BIPV are PV materials that are used in place of conventional building materials as an auxiliary source for power. BIPV integrates solar energy with that of building design. They are used in various parts of building envelops such as roofs, facades, and skylights. BIPV technology can be incorporated either during the construction of a new building or it can be retrofitted to an old building.

Global Biomass Pellets Market to grow at a CAGR of 11.0% over the period 2014-2019. Biomass pellets are normally used as a heating fuel. The use of biomass pellets for heating and as a power source has increased enormously during recent years with many households and industrial facilities using pellet stoves or boilers over old-style wood-fired equipment. These pellets are generally derived from various sources including the timber industry, sawdust, sugarcane crop, woody plants, and switch grass or miscanthus. Power generation using biomass pellets is seeing an increased use. Biomass is an ideal substitute for conventional fossil fuels for heating and power generation purposes. There are a number of technical options available to make use of biomass pellets as a renewable energy source. With biomass gaining importance as a renewable energy source, the Global Biomass Pellets market is also witnessing significant growth.

Global Barcode Scanner Market to grow at a CAGR of 4.05% over the period 2014-2019. A barcode is a systematic representation of data depicted in parallel lines with varied spacing and width. Barcode scanner is an electronic device used to read the information contained in barcode. It works by converting the light energy into electrical energy.

Forging market in North America to grow at a CAGR of 4.55% over the period 2014-2019. Forging is a process in which metals are shaped into desired designs by applying compressive forces. This technique is very robust compared to other metal-shaping techniques because of the strength acquired by the metal during forging. Some metals are processed hot, while others are processed cold. There are several forging methods such as closed die, press, and upset forging; open die forging; and cold forging. The Automotive industry is the major end-user of forged products, followed by the Engineering Machinery and Railway industries.

Satellite-based Earth Observation Services Market in the US to grow at a CAGR of 7.65% over the period 2015-2019.
