Ion exchange membrane is a semipermeable membrane that is utilized for water treatment, wastewater treatment and desalination. It allows the transfer of ions on one side of the membrane to the other while blocking molecules of any other size. Ion exchange membranes are emerging as a cost effective alternative to traditional ion exchange resins due to their compact design and higher efficiency.
The global Ion Exchange Membrane Market is estimated to be valued at Us$ 908.33 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR Of 13.% over the forecast period 2023 To 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends:
The rising adoption of ion exchange membranes in water treatment plants across the globe is fueling market growth. Ion exchange membranes find widespread application in water softening, ultra/nano filtration, electrodialysis reversal, and electro deionization processes which is driving their demand from water treatment industry. Their compact design and ability to remove even trace scale forming ions from water with lower energy consumption compared to traditional methods is making them a preferred technology in industrial and municipal water treatment processes. Increasing global water stress levels coupled with stringent regulations governing wastewater discharge standards are prompting industries and municipalities to invest in advanced water treatment technologies such as ion exchange membranes to sustainably bridge the supply-demand gap for clean water. This is expected to further accelerate the adoption of ion exchange membranes over the forecast period.
