세계의 가스 분리막 시장 예측(-2030년) : 재료 유형별, 구조 유형별, 용도별, 최종 사용자별, 지역별 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Gas Separation Membranes Market is accounted for $1.07 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $1.92 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 8.8% during the forecast period. When gas particle diameters differ and the difference in gas particle sizes are minimal, gases can be separated from a gas mixture using gas separation membranes. Because gas separation membrane units are more compact than other plant types, their tracks are also more compact. Polymers are frequently used as the membrane material in gas separation membranes. Moreover, they are desirable because of their capacity to be processed into hollow fibers with high surface areas. These are employed to separate nitrogen from air, remove carbon dioxide and water from ambient air, remove organic vapor from air or nitrogen streams, and perform many other tasks.

According to the World Steel Association, global crude steel production was 140.7 million tons (Mt) in December 2022. The total world crude steel production in 2022 was approximately 1,878 million tons, a 4% decrease compared to the production in the prior year.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing energy prices & environmental sustainability

Industries are under a lot of pressure due to the rising cost of energy globally and growing environmental sustainability worries. The market for gas membranes is being driven by the emergence of gas separation membranes as crucial tools for process improvement, energy efficiency, and emissions reduction. Additionally, gas membranes provide an effective method of separating gases in applications ranging from natural gas purification to carbon capture and hydrogen production, which are all driven by businesses' need for environmentally friendly solutions that adhere to stricter regulatory standards.

Restraint:

Expensive initial investment

Gas separation membrane system installation can require a sizable up-front financial investment. This price covers the cost of buying membrane modules, related equipment, and installation costs. Moreover, the high initial cost of these systems can deter some potential users, particularly smaller businesses and industries in emerging economies, even though they provide long-term benefits in the form of energy savings and reduced emissions. This limitation might be eased by creating low-cost membrane manufacturing procedures and encouraging financial incentives.

Opportunity:

Growing demand for sustainable energy solutions

Gas separation membranes have a sizable window of opportunity as a result of the global transition to more sustainable and clean energy sources. These membranes are necessary for many clean energy applications, including the purification of hydrogen, upgrading of biogas, and carbon capture for renewable energy production. Furthermore, the need for gas separation membranes in these applications is anticipated to increase significantly as the world works to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change.

Threat:

Alternative technologies intense competition

Gas separation membranes are up against fierce competition from tried-and-true separation processes like distillation, adsorption, and absorption. However, it can be difficult to persuade industries to switch to gas separation membranes from these tried-and-true techniques. In order to outperform the competition, gas membranes must be shown to have unique advantages, be cost-effective, and have positive environmental effects in particular applications.

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant effect on the market for gas separation membranes by disrupting international supply chains, delaying the completion of projects, and lowering capital expenditures across numerous industries. In industries like petrochemicals, healthcare, and water treatment, the demand for gas separation membranes was impacted by lockdowns and restrictions that slowed down manufacturing and construction activities. Moreover, the pandemic also highlighted the value of membrane technology in fields like the manufacture of pharmaceuticals and medical gases, which could present opportunities for market recovery and expansion as businesses adjust to the new normal and give resilience a priority in their operations.

The Polymeric Membrane segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

In the market for gas separation membranes, polymeric membranes are anticipated to hold the largest share. In a variety of applications, such as natural gas processing, water purification, and hydrogen separation, polymeric membranes are preferred for their adaptability and affordability. For their exceptional selectivity and durability, polyimide and polyamide membranes in particular are highly regarded. Moreover, these membranes are well known for being able to work with a variety of gases and liquids, making them appropriate for a range of industrial processes. They have also been widely used, particularly in applications requiring effective gas separation and filtration, thanks to improvements in polymeric membrane materials and manufacturing methods.

The Pharmaceutical segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The pharmaceutical industry had the highest CAGRs in the market for gas separation membranes. The production of high-purity medical gases, such as oxygen and nitrogen, which are essential for pharmaceutical processes and healthcare applications, is just one of many critical applications for which the pharmaceutical industry heavily depends on gas separation membranes. Additionally, pharmaceutical clean rooms and laboratories use gas separation membranes for carbon dioxide removal and air filtration to guarantee product quality and adherence to rigid industry standards. The development of biopharmaceuticals, rising global healthcare demands, and the ongoing growth of the pharmaceutical industry all contribute to the sector's expansion.

Region with largest share:

In the market for gas separation membranes, North America is anticipated to have the largest market share. A number of factors contributed to the region's prominence, including its well-established industrial base, particularly in fields like petrochemicals and natural gas processing, which heavily rely on gas separation membrane technology for effective operations and adherence to strict environmental regulations. Additionally, research and development were given a lot of attention in North America, which helped to advance the technology of membrane systems and materials. Furthermore, the adoption of gas separation membranes in carbon capture and clean energy production applications has been boosted by the region's commitment to lowering greenhouse gas emissions and promoting sustainable energy solutions.

Region with highest CAGR:

The market for gas separation membranes had the highest CAGR in the Asia-Pacific region. Numerous factors, such as the region's quick industrialization, rising energy demand, and growing environmental sustainability concerns, contributed to this growth. A significant demand for gas separation membranes was generated in the Asia-Pacific region as a result of significant investments being made in the development of infrastructure and industry in emerging economies like China and India. These applications included natural gas processing, water treatment, and emissions control. Additionally, the adoption of gas separation membranes in carbon capture and clean energy production was encouraged by Asia-Pacific's commitment to lowering carbon emissions and implementing cleaner energy sources.
