Tertiary Water And Wastewater Treatment Equipment Market Growth & Trends
The global tertiary water and wastewater treatment equipment market size is anticipated to reach USD 40.7 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 4.8% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market growth is driven by factors such as rising urbanization, rapid population growth, the rising need for clean water resources, and the increasing frequency of waterborne diseases. Furthermore, the growing demand for energy-efficient and advanced technologies is anticipated to propel the market growth over the forecast period.
Tertiary treatment is used as the final cleaning step for water before it is reused, recycled, or discharged into the environment. The residual inorganic compounds and pollutants, bacteria, viruses, and parasites are eliminated during this procedure, making the water suitable for reuse.The market is expected to benefit from increasing demand for activated carbon for eliminating residual hazardous compounds in wastewater. These factors are expected to propel the growth of the industry in the coming years. For instance, in November 2020, Koch Separation Solutions acquired RELCO, which offers cutting-edge process technologies for the dairy and food & beverage industries. This strategy was intended to expand the company’s scope of capabilities in the dairy and food & beverage industries.
Furthermore, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation invited tenders for its advanced tertiary treatment plant project in September 2022, with the goal of recycling and reusing effluent water for potable uses. Photocatalytic degradation methods have been extensively used in recent years to eliminate organic contaminants in wastewater and effluents. As a developing destruction technique, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have been developed, resulting in the complete mineralization of the majority of organic pollutants. These factors are expected to drive the demand for tertiary water & wastewater treatment equipment.
Moreover, stringent government regulations such as the U.S. EPA and Clean Water Act related to wastewater emission, coupled with the launch of innovative tertiary clarifiers, are expected to drive the demand. For the primary, secondary, or tertiary clarity processes, turbidity removal, softening, or thickening applications, Ovivo offers dependable and robust mechanisms, such as the bioreactor-clarifier, to assure optimal performance. The biochemical oxidation of organic molecules in a contact-weighted load can be intensified using bioreactors-clarifiers for tertiary treatment of urban wastewater using dissolved technical oxygen. This results in the increased efficacy of wastewater treatment by BOD and other components.
In addition, the launch of innovative tertiary water & wastewater treatment equipment, such as chlorinator systems to reduce water-related diseases, is expected to augment the growth of the market. For instance, Evoqua Water Technologies LLC offers S10k chlorinator, which is an acoustically controlled and vacuum-driven equipment. With direct cylinder installation, gas pressure is rapidly reduced to a vacuum through the placement of the vacuum control valve at the source. All installations can benefit from its adaptability due to its capacity to handle all water treatment gases and its adaptable mounting options for manifolds, cylinders, or tone containers.
Some of the key players in the industry include Evoqua Water Technologies LLC; Xylem, Inc.; Pentair plc.; Aquatech International LLC; Ecolab Inc; and DuPont. The market players are constantly undertaking strategic initiatives such as product launches, mergers & acquisitions, and partnerships to gain a competitive advantage. For instance, in February 2023, Evoqua Water Technologies completed the acquisition of an industrial water treatment service division from Kemco Systems. This acquisition will help the company to expand its aftermarket services in the North America market while strengthening the company’s capability to support and serve its industrial customers.
