The global pharmaceutical filtration market size is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 9% between 2023 to 2028 and be worth USD 29.81 billion by 2028 from USD 19.38 billion in 2023.
The process that helps separate suspended particles from a medium by passing them through a membrane is filtration. Filtration is a physical technique in various fields, including the pharmaceutical industry. It is one of the essential processes adopted in the pharmaceutical industry. The filtration process can also be combined with other operations. It differs from sieving, where separation is carried out using a single perforated layer. It is unlike filtration, where a multi-layer lattice is generally used. This technique is used in many processes, such as air, bulk, solvent, and water. The market is expected to expand quickly during the forecast period.
MARKET DRIVERS:

MARKET RESTRAINTS:
However, large capital requirements and strict validation and qualification procedures in different countries are expected to hamper the pharmaceutical filtration market during the forecast period.
Impact of COVID-19 on the global pharmaceutical filtration market:
The novel COVID-19 caused by the SARS-CoV-2 agent affects millions of people, the business sector, and healthcare. The governments have imposed a severe lockdown from March to May. Many pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies have temporarily shut their doors due to a lack of workforce to avoid widespread disease. The pandemic has created a positive effect on the pharmaceutical filtration market. Filtration technologies play a vital role in response to the impact of COVID-19. Most pharmaceutical filtration manufacturers worldwide interrupted their activities during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown. The demand for these filtration systems has risen over the pandemic time. The increase is due to continuous research and development of vaccines to recover from virus-infected patients. The pharmaceutical filtration market demand is due to the threat of COVID-19 transmission via air in indoor spaces. The Nanotech filter coating air filters to capture airborne or droplets of the virus. The demand for this market is accumulating to develop purity.
