Water and Wastewater Treatment Technologies: Global Markets

Feb 2011| ENV008B| BCC Publishing

Report Highlights

The global market for wastewater treatment delivery equipment, instrumentation, process equipment, and treatment chemicals will increase at a 10.4% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) to exceed $93 billion in 2016, from a 2011 value of nearly $57 billion.

Report Scope

This study focuses on 15 WWT products and 40 robust national markets for those products, which will be worth more than $93 billion by 2016.
 
Products: The 15 products divide themselves into four self-explanatory product groups:
 
The process equipmentproduct group comprises:
  • Primary treatment equipment
  • Secondary treatment equipment
  • Tertiary treatment equipment
  • Advanced treatment equipment.
The delivery equipmentproduct group comprises:
  • Pipes and fittings
  • Pumps
  • Valves and controls.
The instrumentationproduct groupcomprises monitoring devices that have been optimized for use with:
  • Anaerobic digestion systems
  • Activated sludge systems
  • Nutrient removal systems
  • Sedimentation systems.
And, the WWT chemicalsproduct group comprises:
  • Activated carbon
  • Aluminum sulfate
  • Calcium hydroxide 
  • Specialty chemicals.
The WWT industry obviously uses a far broader catalog than the 15 products listed above. A pumping station, for example, requires a structure to house the pump and concrete for the pad that supports the structure and electrical connections. The focus of this work is exclusively on products; it excludes design, engineering, and construction services not directly related to product installation. This study excludes those items along with plumbing fixtures, point-of-use appliances, and locally provided consumables, such as fuels, chlorine, and other disinfectants and fluoridation supplies.
National Markets: With two exceptions, the national markets correspond to sovereign countries. The exceptions are Hong Kong, a special administrative region of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), and Taiwan, an island off the coast of mainland China whose inhabitants recognize their own sovereignty but which the PRC claims as its territory. This study refers to those nonsovereign national markets as Chin - Hong Kong and China - Taiwan.

The 40 national markets examined in this study are:

  • Argentina
  • Mexico
  • Australia
  • Netherlands
  • Austria
  • Nigeria
  • Belgium
  • Norway
  • Brazil
  • Pakistan
  • Canada
  • Philippines
  • China - Hong Kong
  • Poland
  • China - Mainland
  • Russia
  • China - Taiwan
  • Saudi Arabia
  • Colombia
  • South Africa
  • Egypt
  • South Korea
  • France
  • Spain
  • Germany
  • Sweden
  • Greece
  • Switzerland
  • India
  • Thailand
  • Indonesia
  • Turkey
  • Iran
  • Ukraine
  • Italy
  • United Kingdom
  • Japan
  • United States
  • Malaysia
  • Venezuela
