Introduction

Abstract

Worldwide demand to exceed $50 billion by 2013

Demand for water treatment products worldwide is projected to exceed $50 billion by 2013. As the global population expands, and the developing world continues to industrialize, the need for clean safe water and suitable treatment of wastewater will boost demand for water treatment chemicals and equipment. In many developing regions, such as much of the Asia/Pacific and Africa/Mideast regions, too few people have access to safe water. An estimated one billion people do not have access to a safe water supply, and a larger number yet do not have access to sanitation facilities.

In some nations, such as in Eastern Europe and some industrialized Asian countries, the water infrastructure has expanded to reach a large share of the population, but water quality remains subpar after decades of disregard for proper water stewardship. Rapidly industrializing nations, such as China and India, struggle with obtaining supplies of usable water, especially in fast-growing urban areas, and with the difficulties associated with treating and discharging wastewater. Wastewater treatment rates usually are well below official estimates, and even treated wastewater is often treated insufficiently.

Even developed, affluent nations confront water problems. Some countries, including the United States, have population centers where native water supplies are inadequate or inferior, or the country as a whole is lacking an adequate water supply. This has led to a renewed interest in desalination, which had generally been considered too costly when compared with water importation. Other countries with modern, welldeveloped water infrastructures face issues including antibiotics and other pharmaceuticals leaching into the water supply, pathogens in agricultural runoff, and the need to reform water treatment techniques so they do not create additional challenges such as trihalomethanes or other disinfection byproducts.

Global industry focused on improving water supplies

Most countries have little choice but to spend substantial sums to improve their water supplies, and to expand access to them. In the Middle East, the largest desalination market, efforts are underway to be less reliant on fossil fuels to power desalination plants. Technological advances have allowed for improvements in water quality without drastically increasing the cost of water. For example, improvements in membranes and energy recovery devices have made desalination more affordable. Countries with generally good water supplies, such as Canada and the US, are able to treat water to meet higher aesthetic standards, far beyond the basic criteria for safety and cleanliness, allowing for greater elective use of activated carbon and other products.

Industry efforts to address and implement more exacting standards for water quality and wastewater discharge will boost demand for high performance filter and membrane systems, in industrial as well as municipal water treatment settings. Advancements in desalination techniques will allow that technology to transcend its traditional niche in energy-rich, waterpoor nations in the Middle East and grow in locations with brackish and otherwise suspect water supplies, such as parts of the US, Australia and Spain. In addition, efforts to reduce disinfection byproducts will lead to greater use of nonchemical disinfection techniques such as ultraviolet light and ozonation, particularly in Western Europe.

Study coverage

This new Freedonia industry study, World Water Treatment Products, presents historical demand data (1998, 2003 and 2008) plus forecasts for 2013 and 2018 by product type and market for six regions and 23 countries. The study also considers market environment factors, evaluates company market share and profiles global industry competitors.

Global Information would like to present a new market research report, "WORLD WATER TREATMENT PRODUCTS (Forecasts for 2013 & 2018 in 23 countries)" by Freedonia.

This report presents historical demand data (1998, 2003 and 2008) plus forecasts for 2013 and 2018 by product type and market for six regions and 23 countries. The study also considers market environment factors, evaluates company market share and profiles global industry competitors.

In some nations, such as in Eastern Europe and some industrialized Asian countries, the water infrastructure has expanded to reach a large share of the population, but water quality remains subpar after decades of disregard for proper water stewardship.
