Interphase between two adjacent phases is a gas separation membrane that acts as a selective barrier for gas transportation between gas mixtures. When the gas-particle diameters are several, and the variation in gas-particle sizes is modest, it separates gases from a variety of gases. According to BlueQuark Research & Consulting, the global Gas Separation Membranes market is expected to witness a significant growth rate during the forecasted period. Factors like the increasing use of Gas Separation Membranes in the water treatment, which works like an impenetrable barrier that permits water to flow past it but stops unwanted substances from passing through with it, are expected to drive the global market. Further, in the packaging industry, Gas Separation Membranes are used for modified atmosphere packaging, which is frequently employed in the case of fresh, respiring items like fruits and vegetables are projected to drive the global market. Furthermore, in the food industry, Gas Separation Membrane is used for separating food components based on their molecular size and molecular weight using semi-permeable membranes, driving the global market. However, most research-based gas separation membranes are only tested in labs. Testing and testing the performance of the new membranes in the pilot plant takes a long time and costs a lot of money. Upscaling and commercializing innovative items comes at a hefty cost and takes a long time is expected to hinder the global market growth.

Gas Separation Membranes are used to separate gas mixtures by acting as a permeable barrier that allows various substances to pass through at different rates. It is used to reject large particles and multiple microorganisms in water treatment. It is used in packaging and the food industry in cold pasteurization and sterilization. Many operations in the refinery need gas separation membrane, including natural gas treatment, carbon dioxide capture, hydrogen purification, and hydrocarbon separations. In the pharmaceutical sector, it is also used.

The Water Treatment Industry is the most vital consumer of Gas Separation Membranes and is projected to drive the Global Market. Gas Separation Membrane is a cutting-edge membrane technology that uses microporous hydrophobic membranes as selective barriers for water treatment. Membranes have varied features for separation or purification processes, such as high flux, high selectivity, mechanical stability, fouling resistance, and low cost, making the Global Gas Separation Membranes bound rise. As of the end of 2021, Evonik has deployed gas separation membranes in over 1,000 reference plants globally since the product's debut in 2011. In under a decade, the specialty chemicals firm has established itself as a world leader in developing polymer-based SEPURAN membranes for effective gas separation. Biogas, nitrogen, hydrogen, and natural gas applications continue to be in high demand for the Group. The separation is based on a solution diffusion process involving molecular-scale interactions of the penetrating molecule with the membrane polymer. The membranes most often utilized are polymeric and nonporous, which are expected to grow and drive the overall market. Therefore the mentioned use of Gas Separation Membranes in the Water Treatment Industry is expected to grow and drive the overall market.

The North American region is expected to be the leader in producing and consuming Gas Separation Membranes, with most consumption in countries like the U.S. and Canada. The demand for water treatment is increasing due to the increasing population. Gas Separation Membranes eliminates or decreases the concentration of pollutants and unwanted components so that the water is suitable for its intended usage, thus driving the global Gas Separation Membranes market. In the packaging industry, Polymeric membranes with permselectivity and the ability to maintain regulated distribution can be utilized successfully for food packing, which drives the need for Gas Separation Membranes in the Global Market. In the food industry, using membrane filtration to eliminate germs instead of chemicals and preservatives to extend the shelf life of foods creates a green image for both the processed items and the processing technology, driving the global Gas Separation Membranes market. In the refinery, the utilization of Gas Separation Membranes increases due to the simple concept and low-energy consumption, driving the global market. In the pharmaceutical industry, to purify pharmaceutical waste streams and minimize the volume of waste that needs to be incinerated, nanofiltration or pervaporation is used, expected to drive the global Gas Separation Membranes market. The mentioned factors have made North America an important region for growth in the Gas Separation Membranes Market.

Some of the market's key players are Air Products & Chemicals, Inc., Air Liquide S.A., Ube Industries, Ltd, Evonik Industries AG, Honeywell UOP, among others.

In February 2022, PuraMem® VOC membrane separation technology from Evonik offers a safe and effective means to treat such heavy gas at the lowest operating cost of any technology today. Flare gas may now be converted into a lucrative energy source. Using cutting-edge membrane separation technology, gas liquids can be effectively extracted from flare gas. Without burning the recovered methane, it may be utilized to create electricity.
