Europe Membrane Water and Wastewater Treatment Market Trends

Reverse Osmosis to dominate the Market

• Reverse Osmosis (RO) is a technology where demineralization or deionization of water is achieved by application of pressure. A RO membrane rejects contaminants based on their size and charge. Any contaminant which has a molecular weight greater than 200 or contaminant which has greater ionic charge will be filtered.
• Reverse osmosis can remove up to particles, 99%+ of the dissolved salts (ions), colloids, organics, bacteria, pyrogens, monovalent and multivalent ions from the feed water.
• Reverse osmosis is most widely used in commercial and residential water filtration. Reverse osmosis not only reduces salt content in water, but also filters out organic contaminants, metals, and pathogens. Additionally, reverse osmosis is also used to purify liquids in which water has an undesirable impurity.
• The growing population and consistently increasing demand for fresh drinking water is likely to boost the demand for reverse osmosis treatment in the market studied.
• Hence, owing to the above-mentioned factors, reverse osmosis is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period.

Germany to Dominate the Market

• Germany is shifting toward green energy, and is cutting down on the nuclear, oil-fired, coal-fired, and natural gas-fired power plants. It aims at 36% of the electricity being produced from renewables by 2021.
• This is likely to boost the usage of water in power generation which in turn is expected to have a positive influence for the market of membrane water treatment chemicals in Europe.
• Additionally, the growing demand from municipal industry is also likely to drive the demand for membrane water treatment chemicals in the country.
• Hence, owing to the above-mentioned reasons, Germany is projected to dominate the market studied during the forecast period.
