Global primary water and wastewater treatment equipment markets were valued at USD 12.12 million in 2019. They are expected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR of 3.5%) between 2020 and 2027. The market has seen a rise in demand for clean water due to an increase in the number of water treatment plants and sludge treatment facilities. Primary water treatment and wastewater treatment are the process of separating floating and heavy substances from effluent. The slurry goes through multiple tanks and filters to separate contaminants from water. The process's low operating costs and market visibility are expected to play an important role in expanding the scope of primary treatment applications over the forecast period. The U.S. According to the U.S. Environment Protection Agency (EPA), more than 23,000 to 75,000 sanitary drains overflow each year in the U.S., increasing the number of users connected to the centralized treatment system.
The growing number of users will drive demand for primary and wastewater treatment equipment. Water pollution is caused by the untreated slurry being discharged from homes, industries, and municipal facilities into water bodies. This can pose a threat to the environment, as well as human health and animal welfare. The governments of different countries have established strict standards and regulations for wastewater management in both the municipal and industrial sectors. This is expected to stimulate market growth.
Primary wastewater treatment involves the removal of large solids from sewage by using physical methods such as skimming, sedimentation, and screening. The primary treatment process removes approximately 65% of the grease and oil, as well as 25% to 35% (or more) of the Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD).
Many governments have instituted stringent regulations regarding wastewater discharge from industrial and municipal sectors. This is expected to increase the market for primary water treatment equipment and wastewater treatment equipment. The U.S. EPA and the Central Pollution Control Board, (CPCB) and the European Environment Agency (EEA), play crucial roles in preventing water contamination and improving the water environment.
Primary clarifiers accounted for 28.7% global revenue in 2019. This was due to their ability to remove approximately 25% of total BOD, 40%-60% of suspended solids and 90%-95 percent of settleable solids from wastewater. Primary clarifiers are used in paper mills to remove fibers from waste streams. This helps in increasing product demand.
The majority of pre-treatment equipment includes products like bar screens, waterfall screen, coarse screens, trash shelves, and other items that are used to remove oil and grease from wastewater. Pre-treatment equipment will be in high demand due to its ability lower operating costs for sludge management facilities and to reduce the risk of damaging the equipment at further stages.
Screening removes plastics, paper and metal to prevent clogging and damage of downstream piping and equipment. Modern wastewater treatment plants use a variety of screens including bar screens, fine screens and coarse screens. Fine screens are used to remove small solids and debris with particles larger than 6mm. Coarse screens can remove rags and large solids. Fine screens remove particles from the range of 1.5-6mm.
Grit removal equipment will see a 3.3% CAGR in revenue from 2020-2027. This is due to its ability to remove large organic particles like food waste, cinder, gravel and sand. Before deciding on grit removal equipment, factors such as grit properties, cost, removal efficiency, space requirements, organic content, cost, and cost are considered.
The market was led by the municipal sector, which accounted for 64.6% global revenue share in 2019. The market is expected to be driven by factors such as increasing residential construction and rural households switching over to public sewers. Rapid urbanization and population growth will also drive demand for municipal water treatment equipment.
The demand for wastewater management systems will be driven by the expected increase in federal funding in the wastewater sector through the Clean Water State Revolving Fund program (CWSRF). This is expected to have positive effects on the market for primary and secondary water treatment equipment in the country.
Industries include important sectors like food & drink, chemical, pharmaceuticals, pulp & papers, oil and gas, and oil & gas. Factors like stringent regulations on sludge discharge, growing investments in different industries, and the increasing demand for primary water treatment equipment and wastewater treatment equipment will drive the demand in the industrial sector during the forecast period.
In terms of revenue, the industrial application segment will see a 2.6% CAGR in North America between 2020 and 2027. High levels of suspended solids, COD and BOD from the pulp and paper industry, as well as chlorinated organic products, are found in the effluent. Growth is expected to be driven by the increasing adoption of primary wastewater treatment equipment for the pulp and paper industry.
Asia Pacific was the dominant market, accounting for 33.5% of global revenue in 2019. This is due to the strong consumer base within the region. Due to the strong consumer base, there has been a significant increase in demand for wastewater treatment equipment and primary water. Growth is expected to be complemented by improving economic conditions, rising populations, and the presence in one of the most important manufacturing industries.
India's demand is expected to grow over the forecast period due to an increasing need for reliable water supplies. Positive developments in India's economic environment are expected to boost market growth.
In 2019, the demand for primary water treatment and wastewater treatment equipment was valued at USD 353.7 million. Market growth is expected to be positive due to the strong potential of the U.S. and the supportive environment that exists for business growth.
Market growth in Central and South America will be influenced by the strong presence of oil and natural gas reserves in Argentina and Brazil. The demand will be driven by the expansion of airports and the construction of large-scale commercial structures in Brazil and Columbia.
