Sludge Treatment Chemicals Market Overview:

“The Sludge Treatment Chemicals Market size is expected to be worth around US$ xx Billion by 2021 from US$ X.xx million in 2031, growing at a CAGR of X.x% during the forecast period 2021 to 2031.”

Sludge is the semi-solid residue produced during the process of wastewater treatment. Raw sludge is easily spoilable, rapidly develops unpleasant smells, and is rich in pathogenic organisms.

Chemicals used for sludge treatment are ferric chloride, alum, lime, and organic polymers. Industries such as personal care, food and beverage, automotive, and paper & pulp are major applications for sludge treatment chemicals due to the large production of sludge in manufacturing.

Growth in industrialization and the increasing need for sludge treatment due to strict environmental regulations are key factors driving the growth of the global sludge treatment chemicals market.

In addition, rising awareness among people regarding the use of chemicals for sludge disposal, and increasing water conservation activities by municipal corporations, environmental associations, and industrial bodies in both developed and developing countries are other factors expected to propel the growth of the global sludge treatment chemicals market over the forecast period.

However, high operational cost is a key factor expected to restrain the growth of the global sludge treatment chemicals market.

In addition, the development of high-performance sludge treatment technologies such as anaerobic sludge stabilization, and membrane bioreactor is another factor expected to hamper the growth of the global sludge treatment chemicals market over the forecast period.

The current trend observed in the market is the introduction of multifunctional chemicals such as copolymers of AETAC (N, N-Dimethylaminoethyl Acrylate Methyl Chloride Quaternary) that perform both coagulating with a positive charge and flocculating with the high molecular weight used for sludge dewatering.

This factor is also expected to drive the growth of the global sludge treatment chemicals market in the upcoming years.

The North American market is a dominant market in the global sludge treatment chemicals market and accounts for the largest market share in terms of revenue.

This is attributed to stringent government regulations for sludge treatment in industries, and the presence of major sludge treatment chemicals manufacturers in the region.

The market in the Asia Pacific is expected to register the fastest growth rate over the forecast period, owing to rising demand for sludge treatment chemicals from chemical, food & beverage, and oil & gas industry in emerging economies in the region.
