The market is expected to witness steady growth during the forecast period. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for chemically treated water from various end-use industries and strict regulations regarding the disposal of wastewater. Rapid urbanization and growing population have led to increased stress on water resources, boosting the need for effective water & wastewater treatment solutions. Furthermore, rising global awareness about water conservation and the availability of advanced treatment chemicals are adding to the demand. The implementation of integrated urban water management practices and sustainable wastewater treatment also bodes well for the water and wastewater treatment chemicals market.

Growth in Industrial Activity

Rapid industrialization in regions, such as Asia Pacific, is boosting the demand for water and wastewater treatment chemicals. Setting up new industries or expanding the existing ones requires a huge amount of water which then needs to be treated as per various quality standards before being disposed into the environment. Industries, such as power generation, mining, oil & gas, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, pulp & paper, and food processing, are large consumers of water. They generate significant wastewater which needs advanced treatment to remove impurities and make it fit for discharge. While treatment facilities are being expanded or modernized, the demand for various water treatment chemicals like coagulants, flocculants, biocides, pH conditioners, etc. is rising steadily. More stringent environmental regulations regarding discharge standards are also propelling industrial plants to invest in advanced treatment technologies that utilize specialized chemicals. Countries in Asia pacific are witnessing a major boom in the manufacturing sector which will positively impact the demand from process industries. This growth in industrial production and strengthening of effluent quality norms are fueling the growth of the water treatment chemicals market.
