Global Industrial Water Treatment Chemicals Market by Application (Cooling & Boilers, Raw Water Treatment, Desalination) and Region (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa), Forecast To 2028

Industry Insights

In 2017, the global market for industrial water treatment chemicals was valued at USD 13.11 million. Over the forecast period, there will be a decrease in fresh and potable drinking water availability, primarily in Asia Pacific and Middle East.

Algicide, sodium bicarbonate and muriatic acid are the most frequently used chemicals. A significant portion of the treatment options include clarifiers, coagulants and filter cleaners. The above-mentioned chemicals are used to treat polluted rivers, water effluents, or seawater.

Rapid urbanization, increasing economic development and increased industrial activity are all contributing to an increase in water demand. There are many products that can be used to meet the growing demand and provide safety for consumers. These four processes are: boiler treatment, wastewater treatment, cooling treatment, purification.

The changing climate, land use changes and increasing human population will all contribute to an increase in freshwater demand in the United States. The country's freshwater is primarily used in industrial and municipal applications, electric power plant cooling, irrigation, aquaculture, and for livestock.

Due to the infrequent rain and precipitation, Asia Pacific, South, Central America, Africa and Africa have low freshwater availability per capita. These areas are potential markets for biocides that can be used to manage industrial wastewater. This is done in order for residents to have a healthy environment and a potable water source.

There are many regulations and policies that govern industrial treatment chemicals. The Clean Water Act (CWA), Safe Drinking Water Act(SDWA) are EPA regulations. They implement a variety of pollution control programs. This includes setting up wastewater standards to protect drinking water quality in the United States. Similar regulations regulate water treatment chemicals in Europe, such as the Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive and Drinking Water Directive.

Operation charges can be high due to the high costs of processes such as maintenance and energy. This could hinder market growth. Other factors that can influence operating costs include the plant's capacity, location, employees, the type of effluent to be treated, the selection of chemicals and technologies, and the degree of automation.

The industry's transformation from the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to the Millennium Development Goals is expected to change the dynamic of the solutions and technologies. The overall market will be driven by the implementation of effective solutions and increasing industrial output in power generation.

Application Insights

The largest segment of the industrial water treatment chemicals market was boilers and cooling treatment. It accounted for 56.7% revenue share in 2017. The forecast shows that the raw water treatment chemicals segment will grow at a 4.3% CAGR.

Pretreated industrial water will be in high demand due to the presence of heavy metals, suspended particles and other contaminants. This is especially true for key countries like Brazil, China, India and U.K. This will likely provide favorable opportunities for product consumption in the future.

Effluent water treatment can be used to safely dispose of or reuse industrial wastewater. This involves the separation of industrial wastewater from wastewater using a variety of chemicals, such as organic coagulants flocculants and filtration aids.

Due to the need to reduce industrial use of freshwater, there will be a significant increase in demand for effluent treatment. This process not only reduces procurement costs but also protects the environment from pollution and contributes to sustainable development.

Regional Insights

Asia Pacific, including China, was the region with the highest revenue and volume share. Due to the regulatory support provided by policymakers, Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia are leading water PPP development. This is due to private sector participation in urban infrastructure and wastewater management in these countries. These factors will likely increase the regional market during the forecast period.

Taiwan is the country most affected by droughts, as it only receives 21% of its annual intense rainfall. This affects strategic manufacturing companies as well as the air quality. Taiwan's resource planners have been focusing on diversifying and securing its resources over the next years. This is fueled by a steady rise in Taiwan's industrial demand, which has increased from 15.4million m3/year down to 16.4million m3/year.

The strong presence of manufacturing facilities in the chemical, pharmaceutical, food, and beverage sectors in U.S.A and Canada will play a critical role in the rising demand for treatment services in the coming years.

The future will see a decrease in U.S. mining growth due to a lack of operating funds for mineral processors, and rising labor costs. Management services may be less accessible in the short term. However, the country's growing automobile production is expected to increase the use of treatment services at utilities of plants during the forecast period.

Market Share in Industrial Water Treatment Chemicals

Global market is highly concentrated and is subject to intense competition. Industry rivalry will increase over the forecast period due to mergers and acquisitions. The industry will see increased competition over the next few decades due to the potential entry of new players.

Industry growth will be impeded by strict government policies and guidelines for the manufacturing of chemicals and equipment. The market's brand image is important because regulators are concerned about the quality and brand of the product. The market will experience moderate threat during the forecast period.
