Market Overview:
The global wastewater treatment chemicals market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The market growth is attributed to the increasing demand for treated water from various end-use applications and the stringent regulations imposed on wastewater discharge by governments across the globe. Based on type, the coagulants & flocculants segment is projected to lead the global wastewater treatment chemicals market during the forecast period. This segment is driven by its ability to remove suspended solids and other pollutants from wastewater effluents. The biocides & disinfectants segment is projected to be the fastest-growing type during the forecast period, owing to its ability to control microbial populations in wastewaters and prevent biofouling in downstream processes.
Product Definition:
Wastewater treatment chemicals are used to help clean and treat wastewater. They can help reduce pollutants in the water and make it safer for people and the environment.
Coagulants & Flocculants:
Coagulants & flocculants are used in wastewater treatment chemicals for the collection of solid particles and removal of suspended particles. Coagulation is achieved by the addition of aluminum salts such as alum, ferric chloride or phosphates such as monosodium phosphate and potassium phosphate. The chemical reaction between these materials and organic substances produces a solid waste that is removed from the solution.
Biocides & Disinfectants:
Biocides & Disinfectants is a group of chemicals that are used to kill or remove microorganisms. Biocides are usually used in water treatment systems and disinfectants can be utilized in wastewater treatment plants, sludge handling facilities, and other areas where there is a risk of spreading disease.
Application Insights:
The power generation segment dominated the global wastewater treatment chemicals market in terms of revenue share in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the rapid industrialization and urbanization in developing countries such as India, China, Bangladesh and Thailand. Furthermore, increasing electricity demand across emerging economies is expected to further fuel industry expansion over the forecast period.
Municipal water treatment emerged as another lucrative application segment for wastewater treatment chemicals with a revenue share of 15.1% in 2017 owing to rapidly growing urban population coupled with favorable government policies aimed at improving municipal infrastructure across various regions including North America and Europe Asia Pacific Latin America Middle East & Africa).
Industrial water Treatment emerged as yet another significant application segment for these products due to stringent regulations implemented by regulatory authorities (EPA) regarding discharge from industries into waterways resulting into contamination of freshwater resources downstream affecting both human health & aquatic life forms (fish).
Regional Analysis:
The demand for wastewater treatment chemicals in North America is expected to grow at a significant rate over the forecast period. The growth of the market in this region can be attributed to increasing investments and favorable regulatory policies regarding water treatment. For instance, according to the U.S. EPA, there are more than 40 different federal agencies that regulate various aspects of environmental quality throughout the country.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants owing to stringent environmental regulations
- Growing awareness about the benefits of using advanced wastewater treatment chemicals for better effluent quality
- Rising investments in water and wastewater infrastructure globally
- Proliferation of new technologies and products that help reduce operating costs and improve plant efficiency
- Stringent regulatory framework encouraging the use of advanced wastewater treatment chemicals
