Gas phase filtration is a process that employs chemical substances to eliminate harmful gases from the air. A sorbent is utilized to absorb these chemical substances and remove them from the air, effectively purifying the air and providing protection against corrosive and odorous elements. This method is particularly employed for the removal of hazardous gases present in the air.
There are two main types of gas phase filtration such as packed bed filters and combination filters. Packed bed filters are designed with a fixed layer to facilitate intimate contact between gases, utilizing methods such as sand filtration, distillation, absorption, and mixing. Various filter materials, including granular activated carbon, potassium permanganate, and impregnated activated carbon, are employed in this process. Gas phase filtration finds applications across different industries, with end-users including the pulp and paper industry, chemicals and petrochemicals industry, metals and mining industry, food and beverages industry, healthcare industry, utilities industry, semiconductor manufacturing industry, and others. The versatility of gas phase filtration makes it a crucial process for ensuring air quality and safety in various industrial settings.

The gas phase filtration market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.09 billion in 2024 to $2.21 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to hybrid filtration approaches, healthcare facility requirements, R&D investments, specialty filtration demands, market globalization.
The gas phase filtration market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.75 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to tightening environmental regulations, health and safety priorities, energy efficiency focus, urbanization and air quality challenges, specialized filtration needs. Major trends in the forecast period include adoption of hybrid filtration solutions, stringent environmental regulations, industrial technological innovations.
The rising concerns regarding air pollution are anticipated to drive the growth of the gas phase filtration market. Air pollution refers to the contamination of the air by unwanted substances. Gas phase filtration effectively eliminates odors and gaseous pollutants from the air in various environments, such as buildings, hospitals, workplaces, and other areas facing contamination issues. These filters can be easily replaced with existing HVAC filters without the need for any modifications. For example, in 2024, the World Health Organization, a Switzerland-based intergovernmental organization, reported that low- and middle-income countries face 3.68 million premature deaths each year due to ambient air pollution, which is nearly eight times higher than the 0.47 million deaths recorded in high-income countries. Thus, the growing concerns about air pollution are expected to propel the gas phase filtration market's growth.
The gas phase filtration market is experiencing significant growth propelled by the expanding semiconductor sector. Cleanroom environments integral to semiconductor and electronics manufacturing demand highly efficient gas phase filtration to eliminate contaminants and preserve the integrity of delicate electronic components. Noteworthy data from the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) indicates a 3.3 percent growth in semiconductor chip sales, reaching $574 billion from 2021 to 2022. This surge underscores the critical role of gas phase filtration in sustaining cleanroom conditions for semiconductor production, thereby driving the market's growth.
Gas phase filtration market trends are witnessing a notable focus on product innovation, with major companies in the sector dedicated to developing cutting-edge solutions to maintain their market positions. An exemplary case is Camfil, a Sweden-based air filter company, which launched the CamCarb XG HVAC air filter in August 2023. This innovative filter boasts a unique combination of high removal efficiency, low airflow resistance, and an extended lifespan, resulting in a significantly low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). The emphasis on product innovation is indicative of the industry's commitment to advancing filtration technologies and meeting evolving market needs.
Major players in the gas phase filtration market are strategically focusing on developing portable gas phase filters to provide air filtration services in dynamic environments, such as the interiors of vehicles. The demand for portable gas phase filtration devices is notably increasing in residential and small commercial spaces, offering flexibility in addressing localized air quality concerns. A case in point is Panasonic, a Japan-based electronics and automotive company, which introduced the nanoe X portable in-vehicle air cleaner in January 2023. This portable air purifier not only eliminates odors but also contributes to the prevention of viruses, germs, mold, and allergies in both airborne and surface forms. The development of such portable solutions reflects the market's responsiveness to the need for versatile air quality management.
