The global chemical and wastewater treatment market was valued at USD 38.7 billion in 2018 and is expected to reach USD 59.2 billion in 2026, growing at a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period.
Water is widely used in various processes and industries. Wastewater arises from industrial wastes, rain runoff, groundwater infiltration, and human and home wastewaters. According to WHO, wastewater contains 99.9% of water by weight and 0.1% remains suspended or dissolved material. The dissolved or suspended material consists of detergents, oils, plastics, sands, food leftovers, and grits. These solid materials remain undissolved in water, which causes cloudiness and is commonly known as total suspended solids (TSS). The chemical and wastewater treatment is required to decrease the TSS levels as per the end-user requirement.

The growth of the chemical and wastewater treatment market is primarily driven by stringent regulation pertaining to treatment and emission of industrial waste, an increase in urbanization and industrialization, and growing awareness towards wastewater. Moreover, rising demand from growing end-use industries, such as oil & gas, chemical, and mining for using wastewater in emerging countries also drives the growth of the global chemical and wastewater treatment market. On the other hand, alternative methods for chemical and wastewater treatment and increasing water treatment chemical prices is creating a major hindrance to its market growth. However, continuous development in formulations of chemicals for wastewater and growing industrialization is expected to create major growth opportunities during the forecast period.
The coagulants segment expected to grow at the fastest rate of 7.2% CAGR during the forecast period
Based on type, the global chemical and wastewater treatment market have been segmented into coagulants, flocculants, corrosion inhibitors, scale inhibitors, biocides & disinfectants, anti-foaming agents, ph adjusters and stabilizers, chelating agents, and others. Due to its excellent properties like high cleaning rate and better solving capacity, coagulants are the most widely used in chemical and wastewater treatment across the end-use industries, globally. Moreover, coagulants are largely used in industries for the water clarification process. These cleaning agents has fewer costs and easily available and essentially used for wastewater treatment. Due to these factors, a coagulants segment is expected to grow at the fastest rate throughout the forecast period.
Based on the end-use industry, the power generation segment is expected to lead during the forecast period
Based on the end-use industry, the market has been segmented into power generation, oil & gas, chemical, food & beverage, mining, and others. In 2018, the power generation segment is accounted for the largest share in the market and held for around 28% of the total market owing to growth in urbanization and population along with changing lifestyle have resulted in increasing per capita power consumption. Moreover, the zero liquid discharge (ZLD) mandate in the power generation industry plays a major role in enhancing wastewater treatment chemical consumption in this industry.
North America to dominate the chemical and wastewater treatment market throughout the forecast period
North America accounted for nearly 39% share of the global chemical and wastewater treatment market in 2018 and is expected to dominate the market throughout the forecast period followed by Europe and Asia-Pacific. Stringent government regulations in the North America region are one of the key factors driving the consumption of chemical and wastewater treatment in this region. Moreover, the growth of industrial infrastructure and huge demand for industrial wastewater treatment in key countries such as the US and Canada are also propelling the growth of the chemical and wastewater treatment in the North America region. Moreover, Asia-Pacific accounted for the highest CAGR in the global chemical and wastewater treatment market during the forecast period.
The major players operating in the global chemical and wastewater treatment market are Suez (France), SNF Floerger (France), Feralco Group (Sweden), Hydrite Chemical Co. (US), Aries Chemical (US), Ecolab (US), Kemira OYJ (Finland), Solenis (US), IXOM (Australia), and Kurita Water Industries Ltd. (Japan) among others.
