For years membranes existed as products in search of the right markets. Now, the markets are here--and some big new ones are emerging. In a few years, fuel cells based on membrane technology may be providing electricity and even powering the family car. Meanwhile, advanced membranes are playing a key role in purifying water, producing drugs and ultrapure chemicals, making computer chips, processing food and separating industrial gases. Once dismissed as a "mature industry" membranes have become a multimillion-dollar industry, growing at the rate of 10 - 20% per year.
