Global Membrane Separation Technology Market Overview

Membrane separation technology is used to separate and to purify a specific component from the rest of the mixture. This technology is widely used for commercial and industrial purposes. Certain properties of membrane separation technology, such as durability, porosity, permeability, stability, and selectivity, make them an indispensable element in various industrial applications. Membrane separation technology are widely used in water & wastewater treatment, industrial, laboratory, medical, food & beverage, and research applications to purify, concentrate, sterilize, or separate samples. The global membrane separation technology market accounted for US$17.8 Billion in 2019 and is estimated to be US$54.1 Billion by 2029 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 11.9%.

Impact of COVID-19 on the market

The COVID-19 pandemic has created a sense of panic among people, increasing the demand for contaminants, and this high health issue from people consuming polluted water and air have expanded the applications of membrane separation technology in purification, food & beverage, pharmacy & medical, automotive, and many more. The outbreak of the coronavirus has created great fear and concern regarding contagious diseases. As a proactive measure, more and more individuals and business sectors are implementing innovations that could theoretically minimize or stop the spread of the virus outbreak. Biopharmaceutical firms are at the leading position of the human response to the coronavirus pandemic. The biotech entities are investigating SARs-Cov-2 at an unprecedented rate and a significant amount of funds are being put into the R&D. With the several candidates in trial, the public and private sectors are expected to work in unison for the estimative period, until a vaccine is developed for Covid-19. This report will quantify the impact of this pandemic on the membrane separation technology market.

Global Membrane Separation Technology Market Dynamics

Increasing awareness regarding water & wastewater treatment

The scarcity of pure water has provided opportunities for use of membranes in brackish water purification. High purity standards and stringent regulations regarding drinking water and industrial wastewater discharge are leading to increased water and wastewater treatment activities that use RO, UF, and MF membranes on a large scale. In the U.S., it is mandated by the law that citizens should be given clean and abundant water. The EU’s bathing water standards policy have rules for safeguarding public health with clean bathing water and so on. All these policies are set to increase water & wastewater treatment processes across the world. This is driving the growth of the global membrane separation technology market.

Initiative by government and industry

Industry participants in collaboration with research institutes are undertaking various R&D projects to improve and accelerate the membrane manufacturing technology. The potential use of 3D printing technique may enable the manufacturing of membranes in different shapes and designs in a more precise manner compared to other membrane fabrication methods currently available. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has suggested the implementation of RO pre-filtration in the food and beverage industry to reduce the possibility of biofilm formation. This is anticipated to promote the demand for membrane separation technologies in the coming years. Increasing investments and continuous R&D in membrane separation technology have led to the introduction of membrane products with enhanced durability and higher flow rates. Moreover, manufacturers are developing membrane technologies to address the specific requirements of the end-use industries.

Conversely, cost restraints related to adoption of membrane filters are anticipated to hamper the growth of the global membrane separation technology market during the forecast period.

Regional Insights:

Disclaimer: This data is only a representation. Actual data may vary and will be available in the report.

In the region, the global membrane separation technology market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific region held the majority of the market revenue share in 2019 and is likely to continue its dominance over the forecast period. This growth is due to rising water pollution and growing environmental concerns driven by the growth of industries such as mining, chemicals, and metal processing industries. The government of China launched the ‘Water Pollution Prevention and Control Action Plan’ in 2015 in an effort to prevent heavily polluting sectors such as chemicals and pulp and paper from contaminating water sources. The implementation of this action plan is expected to promote wastewater treatment, thereby, driving the demand for membrane separation technologies in China. North America market is also expected to witness a notable CAGR of 9.7% over the forecast period owing to rising government initiatives to encourage sustainable development. In addition, strict government regulations to control wastewater disposal from municipal sources are also expected to augment the market growth. The pharmaceutical industry in North America is expected to witness exponential growth owing to various research and development activities related to healthcare products. The implementation of regulatory norms for the discharge of pharmaceutical effluents is anticipated to boost the overall market growth over the forecast period.
