Membranes Market Share: By Material Type

Based on the material type, the membranes market is segmented as polymeric, ceramic, and others. The polymeric segment is expected to remain the most dominant segment of the market till 2025. The segment consists of polyamide, polysulfone, polyethersulfone, polymethylpentene, polystyrene, and polytetrafluoroethylene, and others. Polymeric membranes are cost-effective, easy to process and operate, and are suitable for a variety of applications such as beverage processing, feed water production, and chemical processing. Other factors contributing towards the dominance of polymeric membranes are their high performance, high efficiency, and specific separation properties.

Membranes Market Share: By Technology Type

Based on the technology type, the membranes market is segmented as reverse osmosis, microfiltration, nanofiltration, and others. Increasing industrialization and growing population are the driving factors of this segment. Another prime factor is their ability to permeate monovalent ions, while rejecting divalent and multivalent ions and several other selectivity properties provided by nanofiltration membranes:

• Industrial Applications: Flexibility for ion separation and permeation.
• Water Treatment Applications: Reduce heavy metal, salt, and nitrate contents, and provide lower discharge volumes than RO.

Membranes Market Share: By Region

In terms of regions, Asia-Pacific is estimated to be the largest market during the forecast period with the developing economies such as China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Thailand offering lucrative growth opportunities. This growth can be attributed to the changing reforms regarding water regulations in existing systems, growing population, increasing investment for water treatment, and rapid industrialization in the Asia-Pacific region. Europe and North America are also expected to offer substantial growth opportunities during the forecast period.
