Dublin, July 25, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Water Treatment Chemicals Market - Growth, Trends, and Forecast (2019 - 2024)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The market for water treatment chemicals is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 5% during the forecast period of 2019-2024.
One of the key driving factors of the market is rising ground and surface water pollution. However, dearth of awareness regarding chemical water treatment technologies is likely to restrain the market during the forecast period.
Key Highlights
- Growing demand from power and industrial applications is also expected to boost the market growth during forecast period.
- Shifting focus towards green chemicals is likely to provide opportunities for market growth in the future.
- Asia-Pacific is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period.
Major Market Trends
Power Industry to Dominate the Market
- In 2018, the power industry was accounted for the major share of the market.
- Most electric power generation plants require water for their day-to-day operations. Typically, nuclear and fossil fuel power plants consume nearly 190 billion gallons of water per day. Similarly, geothermal power plants need 2 billion or so gallons a day for operations. Hydropower plants also use water directly to generate power.
- The electric power generation industry is one of the major sources of industrial wastewater. Their wastewater contains significant levels of toxic metal impurities, such as lead, mercury, arsenic, chromium, and cadmium, among others.
- These impurities can cause significant damage to the environment, if not treated properly. Therefore, the electric power generation industry needs water treatment chemicals.
- With the ever-increasing requirement for power across the globe, the demand for water treatment chemicals is likely to increase in the future.
- Hence, the power industry is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period.
Asia-Pacific to Dominate the Market
- Asia-Pacific has dominated the global water treatment chemicals market in 2018 owing to the high demand from countries like China and Japan.
- The rapid economic growth and urbanization in China are likely to drive the growth of several industries like municipal, chemical, food & beverages, oil & gas, power generation industry which in turn is likely to boost the demand for water treatment chemicals.
- Moreover, most of China's population relies on groundwater sources for drinking water, which are either untreated or not properly treated by municipal water suppliers. Therefore, the need of water treatment chemicals increases.
- In India, there has been an increase in the chemical manufacturing plants and also the power generation sector in India is constantly evolving.
- Hence, Asia-Pacific is likely to dominate the market during the forecast period.
Competitive Landscape
The market for water treatment chemicals is partly consolidated as the market share is divided among few companies. Some of the major players of the market include Ecolab, Kemira, Solenis, and Kurita Water Industries, among others.
