Membrane Filtration Market

The membrane filtration market is estimated at USD 7.0 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 9.9 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 7.2% from 2023 to 2028.

The demand for membrane filtration has witnessed a substantial upswing, particularly within the food and beverages, dairy, and wine and beer industries. In the realm of food and beverages, consumers are increasingly conscious of the potential hazards associated with foodborne diseases, thanks to easy access to information. This heightened awareness has driven a surge in demand for membrane filtration as a critical component of food safety measures. From removing contaminants in juices to ensuring the sterility of bottled water, membrane filtration plays a pivotal role in maintaining the integrity and safety of consumables. In the dairy industry, where hygiene and quality are paramount, membrane filtration is employed extensively for processes like milk pasteurization and the production of cheese and yogurt.
