The Market of Chemicals for the Treatment of
Water, Wastewater and Sludge
Worldwide State 2014-15-16-17-18-19- 2020-2025
Executive Summary
The water treatment chemicals market worldwide is increasing steadily with an average yearly growth rate of about 5.3% during the next decade. The growth mainly comes from two sides, on the one hand, emerging markets like China, India are rapidly developing their industrial and municipal water treatment networks, on the other hand, the higher value formulations are replacing low-cost, commodity compounds in almost all markets and applications. These high-value formulations function more efficiently with less dosage and are less toxic than the conventional low-cost commodity type chemicals.
The increasing public environmental concerns and more strict legislated will contribute to the growth of water treatment chemical usage. The elevated drinking water standards, especially in the developing countries, will help the drinking water treatment industry grow more than 9% every year in the world. The world bank will make more than 450 bn US$ of necessary investments within the next 10 years as a starting point for improving the global drinking water.
In many regions of the world, especially in Africa, South America and parts of Asia, drinking water is a quality problem on the one hand and a shortage problem on the other hand. Production and treatment of drinking water can be financed locally in the mentioned regions only to a limited degree. More than one third of the world population is today already affected by quality and quantity shortages, with increasing tendency. In industrialized countries exist also increasingly quality and, temporarily, quantity problems. The construction of more and better drinking water facilitates will trigger a steady growth of chemicals usage.
Untreated wastewater is still one of the biggest problems for the environmental protection. In the industrialized countries as well as in the developing countries, new regulations and standards are issued to manage the effluents. Chemicals utilised in the industrial and municipal wastewater applications will therefore witness a moderate but long-term increase during next 10-20 years.
