Microfiltration membranes are used to separate Microfiltration membranes separate microorganisms and suspended particles from water/wastewater. Microfiltration membranes are primarily made from fluorinated polymers and polysulfones. Polivinylidene difluoride (PVDF) is the largest used material to construct microfiltration membranes. PVDF-based microfiltration membranes offer excellent chemical resistance, high hydrophobicity, mechanical strength, and good processability. These membranes are widely used in water & wastewater treatment applications.
Based on filtration mode, the microfiltration membranes market is segmented into cross flow and direct flow. Among these, cross flow filtration mode accounts for the largest market share of the total market. In cross flow filtration mode, the feed to be filtered is continuously recirculated tangentially to a filtration membrane surface. The turbulence at the membrane surface reduces the chances of fouling on the membrane surface, which improves the membrane performance.
Based on application, the microfiltration membranes market is segmented into water treatment, biopharmaceutical processing, food & beverage, chemical, and others. Water treatment which includes municipal water treatment as well as industrial water treatment is the largest segment and is also projected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast. The increasing awareness about wastewater treatment, and rising water scarcity is driving the demand of microfiltration membranes in the water treatment industry. Additionally, stringent government regulations pertaining to wastewater treatment are supporting the growth of microfiltration membranes market.
