The "Global Chlor-Alkali Market 2018-2022" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The chlor-alkali market will register a CAGR of almost 4% by 2022.

Freshwater reserves across the globe have been rapidly depleting due to increased water extraction from aquifers. The rate of water extraction from aquifers is higher than the water replenishing rate. The demand for chlorine and caustic soda is high in the wastewater treatment industry. The rising use of water treatment equipment also impacts the market for chlorine.

During the forecast period the demand for other chlorine-based chemicals, such as disinfectants, corrosion and scale inhibitors, coagulants, and flocculants will be supported by the increasing use of equipment, such as membrane systems which require pre-treatment of water with chemicals to maintain efficiency and prevent damage.
