Industrial wastewater treatment chemicals market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.4% during the forecast period. The growing establishment of start-ups across the globe is the major factor driving the growth of the industrial wastewater treatment chemicals market. Start-up companies are involving in development of wastewater treatment systems to treat industrial wastewater. For instance, in November 2018, Inphlox Water Systems Pvt Ltd. (INDRA Water), a Mumbai-based start-up company that offers economical, compact & smart water treatment systems developed a portable electrocoagulation-based system to treat industrial effluent and wastewater from textiles, chemicals, and pharma industries. Moreover, the company has treated more than 5 million litres of wastewater and achieved up to 95% water recovery. Additionally, in September 2021, Nalco Water, an Ecolab company, an Illinois-based supplier of water, energy, and air improvement solutions and services launched Flotation 360, a holistic approach to flotation in mineral processing. 

Moreover, market players are coming together to provide new unique solutions to treat industrial wastewater. For instance, in September 2021, Univar Solutions Inc. chemical and ingredient distributor and provider of services, in partnership with Novozymes, provides biological solutions. Through this partnership, Univar Solutions Inc. added biologic solutions into their existing wastewater treatment portfolio, which strengthens the offerings and further enables them to provide customers with essential, sustainable products and services to help meet vital business needs.  

Segmental Outlook

The global industrial wastewater treatment chemicals market is segmented based on the type and end-use industry. Based on the type, the market is sub-segmented into coagulants, flocculants, biocides & disinfectants, organic polymers, corrosion inhibitors, and others. Based on the end-use industry, the market is sub-segmented into power generation, mining, chemical, pharmaceuticals, and paper manufacturing industry.Among these, the coagulants segment is expected to hold a considerable share in the market. Coagulants are used to remove a wide variety of hazardous materials from water, ranging from toxic materials such as arsenic, chemical phosphorous and fluoride. It is majorly used by developing countries, with fast-growing urban centres and no centralized wastewater treatment. The requirement for wastewater treatment plants is increasing to remove hazardous materials from water, thus, the government are taking initiatives to build plants with maximum capacity. For instance, in August 2022, according to CENTRAL POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD(CPCB) annual report 2020-21, the total number of wastewater generation & treatment plants in India is 1,469 with 31,841 capacities (Mid) in 2020. Thus, it fuels the industrial wastewater treatment chemicals market.

Regional Outlooks

The global industrial wastewater treatment chemicals market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).  The market can be analyzed for a particular region or country level as per the requirement. The Asia-Pacific region is expected to hold a considerable share in the industrial wastewater treatment chemicals market during the forecast period, owing to the growth in the manufacturing sector and increasing foreign direct investment (FDI) in the region.

The Asia-Pacific Region is Expected to Hold a Significant Share in the Global Industrial Wastewater Treatment Chemicals Market

Among all regions, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to hold a significant market share during the forecast period. The presence of industrial wastewater treatment chemicals market players such as Kurita Water Industries Ltd., Dow Inc, and others are accelerating the growth of the Industrial wastewater treatment chemicals market. For instance, in April 2020, Kurita Water Industries Ltd., a provider of water treatment products and services completed a merger of its subsidiaries in the US. The subsidiaries companies which are merged include U.S. Water Services, Inc, Kurita America Inc., Fremont Industries, LLC, and Global Water Services Holding Company, Inc. The combined company is known as Kurita America Inc. Through this merger, Kurita America Inc. has enhanced its sales, production capacity, and commercial offerings to maximize the overall efficiency of business operations to provide solutions to the customers.

Moreover, in September 2021, Kemira Oyj, a chemicals company serving customers in water-intensive industries opened an R&D centre in China, to meet rapidly growing market demand in the Asian region. R&D centre offers bleaching, sizing, polymers, coagulants and biomaterial solutions as well as application solutions to China and Asia Pacific markets.

Market Players Outlook

The major companies serving the global industrial wastewater treatment chemicals market include Akzo Nobel N.V., Baker Hughes Inc., BASF SE, Dow Inc, Ecolab Inc., Kemira Oyj., Kurita Water Industries Ltd., and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in July 2021, Envirochemie GmbH designs and manufactures wastewater treatment facilities has acquired Industrial Water Management Ltd., a Dublin-based company providing water treatment and hygiene services. This acquisition helps Envirochemie GmbH to expand its product offering of water chemicals for process and wastewater treatment plants.
