Nanofiltration technology is projected to grow at the fastest CAGR between 2015 and 2020 and this growth is attributed to the rapidly growing application areas for nanofiltration and the superior level of performance as compared to certain other technologies.
Membranes are commonly used in the purification and treatment of drinking & waste water. The demand for membranes is high due to the wide spectrum of their application areas. Membrane technology helps meet the critical separation challenges in the industrial applications, favors reduction of waste, and helps increase general recycling. The increasing environmental concern is also an important factor that influences market growth.
Membranes are materials that act as selective barriers allowing the passage of certain constituents and retaining others. These are mainly termed as filtration elements, which are widely used for commercial and industrial purposes. Certain properties of membranes, such as durability, porosity, permeability, stability, and selectivity, make them indispensable element in various industrial applications. Membranes are widely used in the water & wastewater treatment, industrial, laboratory, medical, food & beverage, and research applications to purify, concentrate, sterilize, or separate samples.
