The United States water treatment chemicals market is expected to witness a CAGR of over 4% during the forecast period.

The market is majorly driven by stringent government regulations to control production and disposal of wastewater. The hazardous nature of hydrazine is likely to act as a restraint to the water treatment chemicals market.

The United States water treatment chemicals market is moderately fragmented, with the major players accounting to a low share of the market. Key players in the market studied include Kemira, Kurita Water Industries, Solenis, Ecolab, and Suez, among others.

Key Highlights

    --  Some of the other major drivers of the market include the increasing
        demand to treat wastewater produced from power industry.
    --  The shifting focus toward the usage of green chemicals is providing
        opportunities for the market during the forecast period.
    --  Among the end-user industries, municipal industry accounts for the major
        market share and is likely to maintain its position during the forecast
        period.

Market Trends

Corrosion & Scale Inhibitors to Dominate the Market

    --  Corrosion inhibitors are general purpose chemicals, applied to deal with
        corrosion caused in boilers. Corrosion occurs due to the reaction of
        oxygen with metallic parts in a boiler to form oxides. Corrosion affects
        the metallic part of the boiler, thereby increasing the cost of energy
        and maintenance. They act by forming a thin layer of barrier over the
        exposed parts of the boiler from the water.
    --  When untreated water is used in the boiler, it brings with it several
        soluble salts. These remain soluble in cold water. However, with the
        rise in temperature inside the boiler, the salts become insoluble.
        Carbonates and bicarbonates are formed from calcium and magnesium
        chemicals that are dissolved in water. This residue matter gets
        deposited in the boiler surface and forms a hard coating, which is known
        as scale. The problem with the scales is that they block efficient heat
        transfer, create localized heating, increase power consumption and
        maintenance expense, and occasional boiler failure.
    --  Corrosion and scale inhibitors are used mostly in boiler and cooling
        water treatment plants to escape from corrosion. In Australia, these
        corrosion and scale inhibitors are used by municipal and water
        authorities, commercial buildings and hospitals, etc., as well as by
        industrial consumers, such as oil and gas, pulp and paper, mining. These
        chemicals are a significant part of the energy industry, and the mining
        and mineral processing industries.
    --  Hence, owing to the above-mentioned factors, corrosion & scale
        inhibitors are likely to dominate the market during the forecast period.

Municipal Market to Dominate the Industry

    --  The major processes involved in water treatment in the municipal sector
        include preliminary treatment, primary and secondary treatment, tertiary
        treatment, biological nutrient removal (BNR), resource recovery, and
        energy generation, among others. Moreover, municipal wastewater
        treatment involves a significant quantity of biomass. Therefore,
        biological treatment is a major step for the treatment of biowastes.
    --  The USEPA has also been focusing on supplying clean drinking water and
        runs a fund called Clean Water State Revolving Fund', by which it
        finances the environmental compliances.
    --  Such initiatives are likely to increase the usage of water treatment
        chemicals. The usage of water treatment chemicals is also increasing,
        due to a greater demand for purifying drinking water in the country.
    --  Hence, owing to the above-mentioned factors, municipal industry has
        accounted for the major share of the market among the end-user
        industries and is expected to continue dominating the market during the
        forecast period.
