Water Treatment Chemicals Market

Water treatment chemicals are used for removing contaminants from water. Water treatment chemicals include algaecides, antifoams, biocides, boiler water chemicals, coagulants, corrosion inhibitors, disinfectants, flocculants, neutralizing agents, oxygen scavengers, pH conditioners, resin cleaners, and scale inhibitors. These water treatment chemicals find applications in boiler water treatment, membrane water treatment, and cooling water treatment.

Market Dynamics

Increasing awareness about reducing water contamination, reusing water, and treatment of water is driving the global water treatment chemicals market growth, owing to numerous initiatives and stringent norms by governments across the globe. For instance, in 2022, European Commission (EC) proposed to facilitate water reuse for agricultural irrigation in the European Union. According to the European Commission, water from treated wastewater can be reused during seasonal drought and weather variability, which would save farmers from crop failures and income loss. Therefore, such initiatives are expected to propel the demand for water treatment chemicals over the forecast period.

Moreover, to combat the scarcity of water, private as well as government organizations are focusing on developing efficient wastewater effluent treatment plants to treat wastewater and make it suitable for various end use applications such as industrial and agricultural. For instance, according to the article, ‘Treated wastewater use in Saudi Arabia challenges and initiatives’ published by the International Journal of Water Resources Development in December 2021 Saudi Arabia aims to achieve 100% use of treated wastewater by 2025 and it is projected that around 6.8 million m3 per day of treated wastewater will be available for use in Saudi Arabia by 2035.

Furthermore, companies across the globe are developing new chemicals for the treatment of wastewater, in order to strengthen their foothold in the global market
