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 oharmaceutical filtration 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 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. 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.
