The "Gas Separation Membrane Market by Module, Material Type, Application (Nitrogen Generation & Oxygen Enrichment, Hydrogen Recovery, CDR, Vapor/Gas Separation, Vapor/Vapor Separation, Air Dehydration, H2S Removal), and Region - Global Forecast to 2030" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The gas separation membrane market is anticipated to grow from USD 1.16 billion in 2025 to USD 1.67 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 7.4% over the forecast period.

Key advancements in spiral-wound modules, due to their impressive cost-performance ratio and operational benefits, are significantly contributing to this growth. Their compact design ensures high packing density, providing a large membrane area within a small footprint and offering cost efficiency, particularly in large-scale or energy-sensitive applications.

Polysulfone Type Market Expansion

Polysulfone membranes are expected to capture the second-largest market segment owing to their balanced mechanical strength, thermal stability, and chemical resistance. They find applications in air separation, hydrogen recovery, and biogas upgrading, thanks to their moderate selectivity and durability. The adaptability of polysulfone allows for various module configurations, enhancing their utility across different industries.

Nitrogen Generation & Oxygen Enrichment Trends

This segment is projected to hold the second-largest market share driven by diverse industrial needs. Nitrogen generation membranes are crucial in industries like food packaging and electronics, whereas oxygen enrichment is vital for healthcare, metal cutting, and wastewater treatment. Membranes offer on-site generation with lower energy requirements, making them ideal for both large-scale operations and small enterprises.

While carbon dioxide removal leads in adoption, the growth in nitrogen and oxygen applications in essential sectors ensures their significant market share.

North America's Market Position

North America is set to hold the second-largest market share, powered by its advanced industrial base and supportive regulations. The region's shale gas reserves and clean energy initiatives increase the demand for gas separation membranes, particularly for natural gas processing and carbon capture. The presence of key industry players further solidifies North America's position in this market.

Major North American manufacturers include Air Products and Chemicals, Inc., Honeywell International Inc., and Parker Hannifin Corporation, fostering a robust competitive environment alongside startups and innovation-focused companies.
