Executive Summary

Wastewater is used water from municipal and industrial sources. It varies based on toxicity and other pollutants. Wastewater from industrial sources is more toxic than wastewater discharged from municipal sources.

Advancements in the level of technology and chemical, good government support, rising demand for freshwater resources, public health concerns and strict environmental regulations from the government impact overall growth of the water and wastewater treatment market.

The market is categorized as technologies and chemicals based on the offering segment. Technology segments have been further divided into filtration, disinfection and others. Among these, the disinfection segment holds the highest market share in 2022 and is estimated to grow from 2023 to 2028. The disinfection segment consists of chlorine, ultraviolet and ozone technologies, which are expensive and are primarily used in secondary treatment methods.

Based on the process segment, the market is categorized into primary, secondary, tertiary and advanced treatment. Among these, primary treatment holds the highest market share in 2022 and is estimated to grow from 2023 through 2028. The market share of primary treatment will increase by the end of 2028, with increasing participation of developing nations treating wastewater at the initial stages of wastewater treatment; primary treatment is a much more widely used process in wastewater treatment, compared to other processes.

Based on end user, the market is categorized into municipal and industrial. For better clarity on the industrial section, the segment is further classified into oil and gas, chemical, dairy, food and beverages, paper and pulp, pharmaceuticals (including biotech), semiconductors and others.
