The global nanomembrane market was valued at USD 359 million in 2017. Nanomembrane are the filters that reject particles whose size is about 1 nanometer and hence they are also referred to as nanofiltration. The typical application of nanomembrane includes reduction of total dissolved solids (TDS), removal of total organic compounds (TOC) and separation of organic from inorganic matters in liquids and gasses. Thus, nanomembranes are now being widely used in obtaining clean water and for wastewater treatment by varied industries, is driving the growth of the global nanomembrane market. This coupled with the use of nanofiltration for separation of amino acids and lipids in healthcare & pharma sector will further boost the market growth of global nanomembrane market.
In 2017, polymers were the largest market valued at USD 255 million in the global nanomembrane market. Spiral, tubular and hollow fiber membrane are the types of polymer nanomembrane. The use of different types of polymer nanomembrane depends upon the application. Spiral polymers are deployed in high volume application as they are cost effective plus offer a good amount of membrane area per element with compact size. Tubular are highly resistant to plugging are used in filtration of fibrous compounds while hollow fiber membrane are used in filtration of low solids and liquid streams. Polymer-based nanomembranes offer various pore sizes thus can be used for the varied application have surged in demand driving the growth of the global nanomembrane market. Polymers were followed by metal-based nanomembranes as they are used for harsh filtration and demanding application owing to rough design and rugged structure in 2017 in the global nanomembrane market.
In 2017 the water treatment industry had the largest share of 70% in the global nanomembrane market. Water treatment includes desalination, water softening and wastewater treatment which can be implemented in various industries. Nanomembrane based water treatments grew as they gained rapid acceptance as the most effective and sustainable treatments methods available owing to its versatile applications in commercial filtration systems.
The global Nanomembrane market size is expected to reach close to $ 1,583.08 million by 2029 with an annualized growth rate of 13.6% through the projected period.

Pore size is an important parameter in desalination and softening of water as smaller the size greater is the applied pressure, as the water passes through the membranes. Thus, polymer-based nanomembranes are being deployed in desalination driving the growth of the global nanomembrane market.
Europe was valued at USD 84 million in 2017 in the global nanomembrane market. The region grew as it has seen the early developments in the technology as large water reclamation processes are based on this product. The European market which aims to mitigate the water scarcity and drought situation has further fueled the growth of nanomembrane based filtrations treatments in the global nanomembrane market. The European market is dominated by large-scale companies which have control over the entire supply chain. They are the producers as well the users of the products and services. This has led to the consolidation of the nanomembrane market in Europe and the market is projected to get mature by the end of 2025.
Industrialization and the increasing population from Asia Pacific region are demanding better water treatment technology such as nanomembrane based, are expected to drive the growth of the global nanomembrane market.
