Stringent regulatory and sustainability mandates for environmental safety
Stringent regulatory and sustainability mandates have increased the demand for water purification and wastewater treatment. Environmental regulatory acts, such as Clean Water Act (CWA), Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), and related agencies, including Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), have enforced stringent rules and guidelines for eliminating the release of high amounts of toxic effluents into water sources. These regulations ensure that high-quality standards are followed for water & wastewater treatment. These factors increase the use of spiral membrane to meet the required standards. RO, UF, and NF technologies are expected to witness a high demand for reuse and recycling of water. Spiral membranes are mainly used in these technologies. Therefore, the increasing regulatory and sustainability mandates for environmental safety drives the spiral membrane market.

The spiral membrane market is projected to grow from USD 5.10 billion in 2018 to USD 8.20 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 10.0% from 2018 to 2023. Spiral membranes are used in a wide range of end-use industries, such as water & wastewater treatment, food & beverages, pharmaceutical & biotechnology, oil & gas, and chemical & petrochemical. They act as a selective barrier, allowing the passage of certain constituents while retaining others. These membranes are mainly termed as filtration elements and are widely used in commercial and industrial applications. With recent developments in spiral membrane materials and increasing demand for the reduction of energy consumption in the chemical processing industry, newer membranes and processes are being developed for new applications.
Based on polymer type, the polyamide segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the spiral membrane market during the forecast period (2018-2023). The expected large market share is due to the vast availability and cost-effectiveness of polyamide membranes when compared to other membrane materials.
Based on technology, the reverse osmosis segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the spiral membrane market during the forecast period. The expected large market share is due to the growing use of reverse osmosis in desalination and industrial effluent applications.
Based on end-use industry, the water & wastewater treatment segment is projected to lead the spiral membrane market during the forecast period. More than 50% of the global population resides in urban areas. China and India accounted for more than 30% of the global urban population. The rapidly growing population and urbanization have increased the demand for clean water. This, in turn, leads to the growing use of spiral membranes in the water & wastewater treatment industry.
The APAC region is estimated to be the largest market for spiral membrane, globally. The growth of the APAC spiral membrane market can be attributed to the large industrial base and increased demand for spiral membrane from the water & wastewater treatment, chemical & petrochemical, oil & gas, pharmaceutical & biotechnology, and food & beverage industries of the region. Additionally, several initiatives by the region’s different governments to attract investments from various international companies are expected to propel the growth of the APAC spiral membrane market during the forecast period.
Spiral membrane is used in various end-use industries such as water & wastewater treatment, pharmaceutical & biotechnology, and food & beverage.
Water & Wastewater Treatment
Membranes separation technology in water & wastewater treatment plants are used for microbial removal, desalination of sea water, sewage treatment, wastewater treatment of water from industries, processing of natural mineral water, production of potable water, and treatment of brackish water. The two major membrane processes used for water & wastewater treatment include RO and NF. Knowing which membrane system solution suits the best for water treatment challenge helps to increase the plant efficiency, along with reduced operating & chemical costs, and compliance with increasingly stringent waste disposal regulations.
Food & Beverage
Despite being a relatively mature sector, there are still emerging and potential applications in protein isolation and other separations. An important trend for membranes in the food & beverage sector also relates to wastewater treatment. As disposal regulations have become stringent and sewage surcharges escalate, the industry is being forced to look for new cost-effective water treatment technologies using membranes. Major technologies used in food & beverage industry are RO, NF, UF, MF, along with some of the less used technologies such as pervaporation, gas transfer, and membrane distillation.
