A membrane bioreactor (MBR) is an advanced wastewater treatment technology that integrates biological processes with membrane filtration such as microfiltration and ultrafiltration. The global MBR market is projected to grow from USD 4.15 billion in 2024 to USD 6.75 billion by 2030, at a strong CAGR of 8.5%, supported by rising demand for efficient and compact wastewater treatment solutions.

The market includes hollow fiber, flat sheet, and multi-tubular membranes, with flat sheet membranes witnessing rapid growth due to their robust structure, easier maintenance, and lower clogging risk compared to hollow fiber types. In system configuration, external MBR systems are the fastest-growing because they offer higher flexibility, efficient operation, and easy maintenance access since the membrane modules are located outside the bioreactor.

Based on capacity, large MBR systems dominate the market, driven by their adoption in municipal utilities and high-volume industrial plants that must meet stringent discharge norms. By application, municipal wastewater treatment holds the largest share due to rapid urbanization, population growth, and the need for better sewer management.

The Asia-Pacific region is expanding rapidly as countries like China, India, Japan, and South Korea adopt MBRs to treat growing wastewater volumes. Major players—including Veolia, KUBOTA, TORAY, Xylem, and Mann+Hummel—are strengthening their presence through partnerships, innovations, and strategic collaborations.
