Membrane Filtration Market Size is valued at USD 6.97 Bn in 2023 and is predicted to reach USD 12.26 Bn by the year 2031 at a 7.45% CAGR during the forecast period for 2024-2031. 

Membrane Filtration

Membrane filtration (MF) is a pressure-driven separation method that uses a membrane to mechanically and chemically sieve particles and macromolecules. The food and beverage industries extensively use membrane filtering systems for various applications, including wastewater purification, sterilization, concentration operations, and separation.

Clean drinking water treated using a membrane filtering method is available and is projected to contribute to the market's growth in the future years. Many sectors, including the food and dairy sectors and the chemical processing sectors, use membrane filtering. This process is so effective that it can recycle the old water used in the pharmaceutical industries and remove any organic debris and germs from the drinking water. Different-sized molecules can be efficiently separated by applying pressure on each side of a membrane. Furthermore, especially important for the long-term viability of wine and beer, membrane filtration aids in product stabilization by removing unwanted particles, leading to enhanced clarity and stability.

However, the market growth is hampered by the strict regulatory criteria for the safety and health of the membrane filtration market and the product's inability to prevent fog in environments with dramatic temperature fluctuations or high humidity of membrane filtration. Accumulation of chemicals on membrane surfaces and within membrane holes is possible. This is a risk of introducing even more contaminants into the water or product that the membrane is filtering. Because of this, membrane filtering performance will suffer.

Membrane fouling describes this problem, resulting in spoiled water or goods. Damage to the system or equipment that uses the water or product will occur due to the quality change brought on by the membrane filtering. Because of this, it is one of the most difficult aspects of the membrane filtering industry to overcome. The COVID-19 outbreak significantly impacted the membrane filtration industry. Regulations on personal space and the lockout imposed by the government affect this sector. The outbreak will eventually affect the growth of this market.

Market Segmentation:

The membrane filtration market is segmented based on Type, Membrane Material, Application, and Module Design. By Type, the segment is divided into Reverse Osmosis, Microfiltration, Ultrafiltration, and Nanofiltration. According to Module Design, the market is segmented into Spiral Wounds, Tubular Systems, Plate & Frame and Hollow fibre. As per the Membrane Material segment, the market is divided into Ceramic and Polymeric. The Application segment includes Dairy Products (Liquid Milk (Milk Protein Fractionation, Milk Pre-Concentration, Milk Concentration, Water Recovery), Other Dairy Products (Whey, Milk and whey-based ingredients, Cheese)), Drinks and concentrates, Wine & Beer, Other Food & Beverage Applications).

Based On The Application, The Wine & Beer Membrane Filtration Market Segment Is Accounted As A Major Contributor To The Membrane Filtration Market.

The Wine and beer membrane filtration market is expected to lead with a major global market share in 2024. Wine and beer benefit bone health by increasing bone density and decreasing the likelihood of bone illnesses like osteoporosis.

Plate & Frame Segment To Witness Growth At A Rapid Rate.

The plate & frame industry makes up the bulk of membrane filtration usage because of the frame and plate's small footprint, strong adaptability to materials, simple design, easy operation, stable operation, and straightforward maintenance for a wide range of small and medium-sized sludge dewatering projects, especially in countries like the US, Germany, the UK, China, and India.

In The Region, The North American Membrane Filtration Market Holds A Significant Revenue Share.

The North American membrane filtration market is expected to record the maximum market share in revenue in the near future. This can be attributed to the great need for membrane filtration in the food industry to accommodate rising numbers of people. Due to the rising population, there is a greater need for long-term water purification systems. In addition, Asia Pacific is estimated to grow rapidly in the global membrane filtration market, attributed to the region's large industrial base and the rising demand for ultrafiltration from the region's pharmaceutical and food and beverage industries. Increased government efforts to attract investments from multiple foreign companies are expected to fuel rapid expansion of the APAC ultrafiltration market over the forecast period.

Recent Developments:

  • In March 2023, Toray Industries, Inc. unveiled a novel method that allows for the recycling of glass fibre-reinforced polyphenylene sulfide (PPS-GFRP) with performance on par with that of unused resins. An increase in the recycling rate of PPS GFRP will result in a reduction of carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere.
  • In July 2023, Pall Corporation and Tanajib for Oil & Gas Company Ltd. [Al-Khobar] invested in a brand-new, state-of-the-art production line to accommodate the increased demand for Pall's SepraSolTM Plus liquid/gas coalescers. Pall Arabia was founded following Saudi Vision 2030 to unite the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's oil and gas and petrochemical industries by pooling their resources, technologies, and skills.
