Pharmaceutical Filtration Market size was over USD 13.33 Billion in 2024 and is anticipated to cross USD 88.97 Billion by the end of 2037, witnessing more than 15.5% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of pharmaceutical filtration is assessed at USD 15 Billion.
The growth of the market is primarily attributed to the growing number of new drugs, and positive trends in spending for drug research and development (R&D) worldwide. According to the statistics presented by the Congressional Budget Office, in the year 2019, the U.S. pharmaceutical industry invested USD 83 billion in R&D.
Pharmaceutical filtration is a process of removing solid particulate matter from a fluid in the form of liquid or gas. A porous medium is used for this process. As the biopharmaceutical market is highly regulated and new means are annexed consistently to reduce wastage, the process of filtration is used widely in pharmaceutical industries. Global market size is guaranteed to flourish as the filtration process is considered to be omnipresent with the increased spending for R&D in the pharmaceutical industry along with the introduction of new drugs at a faster pace. Pharmaceutical wastages are expected to create significant revenue generation for the key players operating in the global pharmaceutical filtration market during the forecast period. It is estimated that more than 100,000 ton of pharmaceutical products are consumed globally each year, with Europe accounting for 24% of that total consumption. Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) and other chemical ingredients are released into the environment during the manufacturing, usage, and disposal of these pharmaceutical products, causing pharmaceutical pollution worldwide.
