Gas Separation Membranes Market – Global Forecast to 2024 – ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Gas Separation Membranes Market by Material type (Polyimide & Polyaramide, Polysulfone, and Cellulose Acetate), Application (Nitrogen Generation & Oxygen Enrichment, Carbon Dioxide Removal, & Hydrogen Recovery), and Region - Global Forecast to 2024" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The gas separation membranes market size is estimated at USD 846 million in 2019 and is projected to reach USD 1.1 billion by 2024.

The growth of this market is attributed to the increasing demand for carbon dioxide removal in emerging countries such as China, India, Indonesia, and South Korea. However, regulations related to the plasticization of polymeric membranes are restraining the growth of the gas separation membranes market.

Gas separation membranes are used for degassing and separating gases from gas mixtures. Gas separation membranes are cost-effective due to low energy consumption and lower operation and maintenance costs. The applications of gas separation membranes include nitrogen generation & oxygen enrichment, hydrogen recovery, carbon dioxide removal, vapor/vapor separation, vapor/gas separation, air dehydration, and others.

Polyimide & polyaramide membrane materials have the largest share in the overall gas separation market. The vapor/vapor separation is projected to be the fastest-growing application of gas separation membranes during the forecast period.

The key players in this market include Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. (US), Air Liquide Advanced Separations (France), Ube Industries Ltd. (Japan), Honeywell UOP (US), Fujifilm Manufacturing Europe B.V. (Netherlands), Schlumberger Ltd. (US), DIC Corporation (Japan), Parker Hannifin Corporation (US), Membrane Technology and Research, Inc. (US), and Generon IGS, Inc. (US).

These players have adopted investment, expansion, acquisition, joint venture, and new product launch as their strategies to strengthen their market position.
