Water recycle reuse involves the collection, treatment, and repurposing of wastewater for various uses such as irrigation, industrial processes, and even potable water, depending on the level of treatment. This process utilizes technologies such as filtration, biological treatment, and advanced purification techniques to ensure the water meets required quality standards. The primary goal is to conserve freshwater resources, reduce environmental pollution, and encourage sustainable water management.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The main treatment technologies for water recycle reuse include reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, microfiltration, nanofiltration, ion exchange, electrodialysis, and other treatment technologies. Treatment technology refers to specialized processes, systems, or equipment designed to enhance or manage water quality to meet specific standards. The design of these processes can involve centralized, decentralized, or hybrid systems. These solutions are used across various sectors, including municipal water supply, industrial water supply, agricultural irrigation, environmental restoration, and recreational water use, serving a broad range of end users, such as industrial, commercial, and residential sectors.
The water recycle reuse market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides water recycle reuse market statistics, including the water recycle reuse industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with the water recycle reuse market share, detailed water recycle reuse market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the water recycle reuse industry. This water recycling and reuse market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The water recycle reuse market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from$21.87 billion in 2024 to $24.65 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.7%. The growth during the historical period can be attributed to factors such as increasing water scarcity, heightened environmental awareness, rising industrial water demand, growing urbanization, and a higher demand for freshwater.
The water recycle reuse market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to$39.25 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.3%. The growth during the forecast period can be attributed to the implementation of water conservation policies, increased investment in water infrastructure, improved efficiency of water recycling technologies, greater adoption of smart water management systems, and rising costs of water procurement. Key trends during this period include the development of closed-loop water systems, the integration of the Internet of Things in water management, the creation of water-efficient irrigation systems, technology-driven water purification, and the advancement of membrane filtration technologies.
The growing issue of water scarcity is anticipated to drive the expansion of the water recycle and reuse market in the coming years. Water scarcity occurs when the demand for water surpasses its available supply in a specific region, resulting in inadequate access to meet basic needs. This challenge is intensifying due to climate change, which alters rainfall patterns and reduces the availability of freshwater sources. Water recycling and reuse offer effective solutions for managing water scarcity by providing sustainable alternatives to natural freshwater supplies, making them essential in drought-prone and water-stressed regions. These processes lessen reliance on limited natural sources by treating and repurposing wastewater, thereby enhancing long-term water availability and resilience. For example, in July 2023, the United Nations, a US-based intergovernmental organization, reported that in 2022, 2.2 billion people lacked access to safely managed drinking water, with 115 million relying on surface water sources. Consequently, the increasing water scarcity is fueling the growth of the water recycle and reuse market.
Leading companies in the water recycle and reuse sector are prioritizing the development of cutting-edge water treatment innovations, such as reuse brew, to boost water efficiency and minimize environmental impact. Reuse brew is a recycling technique that purifies wastewater from breweries, enabling its reuse in brewing or other industrial operations to decrease water use and environmental footprint. For instance, in May 2024, Xylem Inc., a US-based water technology company, introduced Reuse Brew, a Bavarian beer crafted from highly treated wastewater. This initiative highlights the advanced potential of water recycling in addressing water scarcity, using treated wastewater through technologies such as ozonation, ultraviolet oxidation, and nanofiltration to ensure both safety and quality. It exemplifies the possibilities of wastewater reuse in tackling water shortages while maintaining stringent standards in beer production.
In September 2023, CECO Environmental Corp., a US-based provider of environmental solutions, completed the acquisition of Kemco Systems Co. LLC for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition strengthens CECO's footprint in North America by broadening its capabilities in industrial water and wastewater treatment, while also incorporating new energy conservation and water recycling technologies. Kemco Systems Co. LLC is a US-based company specializing in custom-engineered water recycling solutions focused on industrial water reuse and energy efficiency.
