Key Takeaways

  • APAC region dominated the ultrapure water market owing to the rising growth of the semiconductor, pharmaceutical, and power plant industries in emerging economies such as India, Japan, China, South Korea, and Others.
  • Increasing demand for ultrapure water in the production of different types of electronics of the same manner as semiconductors such as flat panel displays, discrete components (such as LEDs), hard disk drive platters (HDD), crystalline silicon photovoltaics is expected to boost the growth of the ultrapure water market over the forecast period.
  • Rising demand for ultra-pure wafer washing water, together with an increase in the usage of cleanroom methods to decrease contamination is likely to drive the market growth in the coming years.

Reverse osmosis (RO) held the largest share in the ultrapure water market in 2020. Reverse osmosis technology is generally used for the production of ultrapure water in various industries. RO is a powerful water purification technology that can remove up to 99 percent of dissolved particles from a feedwater source. Larger systems that require high resistivity water are frequently configured with RO before deionization (DI) to extend the life of the DI resin. RO is one of the most common technologies used in well-designed high purity (ultrapure) water systems because of its effectiveness. Thus, the rising usage of Reverse osmosis (RO) for ultrapure water production would further drive the growth of the industry over the forecast period.

Washing fluid held the largest share in the ultrapure water market in 2020 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 7.1% during the forecast period 2022-2027. Ultrapure water is used as a washing fluid in several end-use sectors, including semiconductors, power plants, and pharmaceuticals. Various operations in these industries necessitate washing and cleaning to eliminate pollutants and particles from small parts, which is accomplished by using ultrapure water that has been extensively purified. Ultrapure water is frequently employed in cleaning applications (as required) as a key utility. It can also be used to generate sterilizing steam. Thus, the rapidly rising demand for washing fluid in end-use industries is estimated to drive the growth of the ultrapure water market.

Semiconductor industry held the largest share in the ultrapure water market in 2020. The semiconductor sector is the primary user of ultrapure water. It's utilized in clean rooms, wafer production, and a variety of other applications. The need for the highest grade of ultra-pure water has increased the industry's unit prices as the demand for semiconductors has expanded technologically. Semiconductor wafer manufacturers are hence the primary users of ultrapure water. Furthermore, increasing demand and production for semiconductors is also anticipated to drive the ultrapure water market growth. For instance, according to the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) the global semiconductor sales in October 2019 totaled US$ 36.6 billion, up by 2.9% from September 2019. As a result, the demand for ultra-pure water is predicted to rise over the forecast period, owing to the expanding applications of ultrapure water in the semiconductor industry.

Asia Pacific region dominated the ultrapure water market with a share of 37.6% in 2020 and is projected to dominate the market during the forecast period (2022-2027). The ultrapure water market has benefited significantly from the growth of the electronics and semiconductor, pharmaceutical, and power plant sectors in the Asia-pacific region. For instance, according to the Electronic Industries Association of India (ELCINA), India's total electronics manufacturing in 2017-18 was Rs.3,87,525 crore, up from Rs.3,17,331 crore in 2016-17, a 22% increase. Also, the pharmaceutical industry in India is anticipated to reach US$65 billion by 2024 and US$120 Billion by 2030. On the other hand, other countries in this region such as Japan, South Korea, and others are also anticipated to raise the demand for ultrapure water with the rising growth of the end-use industries. For instance, Japan is the world's third largest electronics manufacturing industry, and the United States' fourth largest export market for semiconductor manufacturing equipment according to the International Trade Administration (ITA). Thus, with the inclining growth of end use industries in several countries of the Asia-pacific region the market for ultrapure water is also estimated to rise over the forecast period.

Ultrapure Water Market Drivers


Rising Installation of New Power Plants would Drive the Market Growth.

Thermoelectric generating facilities (coal, natural gas, and nuclear) use water to generate electricity by converting it to high-pressure steam that drives turbines. With the use of ion chromatography anions at trace levels in power plant water samples were determined. Increasing usage of ultrapure water in coal power plants for processing and cleaning applications is driving the demand of the market. In recent years, the installation of new coal power plants has also raised the demand for ultrapure water. For instance, Shandong Shenglu Coal-Fired Power Project in China can produce 4000 megawatts (MW) of energy. Its first phase was planned to be completed in 2019. Currently, the second phase of the power plant project is under construction. Similarly, in September 2020, Hin Kong Power Company inked a turnkey deal with Mitsubishi Power to build a 1.4GW natural gas-fired combined cycle turbine project. The power plant, which is roughly 100 kilometres west of Bangkok, will be run by a Thailand-based independent power producer. Thus, the rising installation of new power plants will raise the usage of ultrapure water and further drive the growth of the industry over the forecast period.

Increasing Demand for Ultrapure Water in Pharmaceutical Industry

Water used in the pharmaceutical sector, both for drug manufacturing and cleaning, as well as water for injection, must meet stringent quality standards set by GMP standards in Europe, FDA in the USA, and many others. For the pharmaceutical industry, water treatment systems and processing equipment must be steam sanitizable, which necessitates the use of materials that can endure high temperatures. Because the pharmaceutical industry deals with medicinal goods, high level of water purification is essential for product integrity. Water used in pharmaceutical procedures must have dissolved solids levels at least 10,000 times lower than regular potable water. Thus, ultra-water utilized in this industry must be devoid of any organic compounds and germs. Rapidly increasing demand for ultrapure water in the pharmaceutical industry is further estimated to drive market growth.

Ultrapure Water Market Challenges


Advances in Nanotechnology have set High Standards Affecting the Growth of the Market.

Nanotechnology is now widely acknowledged to offer potential solutions for ensuring future progress in semiconductor technologies. Ultrapure water on the other hand can cause a slew of issues in these modern semiconductor manufacturing industries. As the system geometry is shrinking and becoming more complex subsequent drying and traditional aqueous cleaning tends to collapse high aspect ratio nanostructures due to high water surface tension. Furthermore, high water resistance throughout wafer rinsing can cause flow electrification, and high water responsiveness with oxygen and silicon can cause watermarks on silicon surfaces. As a result, the high standards requirements set by advancing nanotechnology may stymie the growth of the global ultrapure water market.
