This study covers the state of the North American tertiary wastewater treatment market, examining drivers and restraints for growth, technology, and geographical trends. Following from these, market growth for regional and market segments are forecasted. In addition, an in-depth analysis of the competitive situation including vendors' tiered market shares are performed. The base year is 2009 with forecasts running through 2016. The market is further divided into four subsegments by technology, including filtration and separation, physico-chemical, nutrient removal, and disinfection technologies
This research service titled North American Tertiary Wastewater Treatment Market provides a current market overview of the marketplace including key market drivers and restraints as well as industry challenges. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts thoroughly examine the following technologies: filtration and separation, physico-chemical treatment, nutrient removal, and disinfection technology used for both the industrial and municipal sectors.
Market Overview
Need for Compliance with Regional Discharge Requirements Creates a Vast Market for Tertiary Wastewater Treatment Technology
Both industrial and municipal end users are implementing tertiary wastewater treatment technology to remove complex contaminants and difficult nutrients that exist in wastewater streams. This also ensures compliance with North American discharge regulations. The market is expected to achieve sustainable growth in the long term once more end users recognize the benefits of using tertiary wastewater treatment technologies. “The presence of contaminants such as phosphates and nitrates is being assessed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a long-term challenge,” says the analyst of this research. “Therefore, if the authorities enforce tertiary wastewater treatment as a regulation, adoption rates could soar.” Nutrient removal, physico-chemical treatment, and disinfection technologies are viewed as areas of growth. However, sustained growth is expected in disinfection technologies and filtration and separation applications, as these are considered standard treatment equipment in the wastewater industry.
Despite the potential of the market, the economic downturn of 2009, along with the reduction of capital expenditure budgets is expected to dampen business prospects for the next two to three years. Owing to the slowdown, both industrial and municipal end users have reduced capital and operational expense budgets and have to weigh the initial implementation and installation costs required for tertiary wastewater treatment equipment to address contamination concerns. In the short term, smaller industrial and municipal end users may choose to continue using retrofit or outdated systems to save capital costs.
“Growth in this industry segment can be catalyzed by focusing on the successful installations of standard tertiary treatment equipment and innovative applications of new technologies to address nutrient removal and physico-chemical applications,” notes the analyst. “These case studies can demonstrate the improved treatment effectiveness and strong return on investment.” Tertiary wastewater treatment technology will experience a greater degree of market penetration and acceptance if industrial and municipal end users are educated about the overall benefits of technology implementation.
