Water and Wastewater Treatment Market Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Global Industry Analysis: By Treatment Type (Biological, Disinfection, Membrane Separation, Sludge Dewatering, and Others), By End-user (Industrial Waste, Municipal Waste, and Others), and Region Forecast 2019-2030    

Water and Wastewater Treatment Market size was valued at US$ 99,634.7 million in 2023 and is poised to grow at a significant CAGR of 6.3% from 2024-2030. The growing population and increasing health consciousness among people to drink safe and healthy water raise the demand for freshwater. Such scenarios, like growing pollution, and water contamination, significantly result in a lack of freshwater resources, which further increases the need for freshwater incoming the next decade; this, in turn, increases the necessity of water & wastewater treatment solutions over the same period. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), 663 million people worldwide lack access to clean water, and 315 thousand children under the age of five die each year from diarrhoeal diseases caused by dirty water and poor sanitation, driving up the demand for freshwater.

Demand for water & wastewater treatment solutions is rapidly growing from different industries like Food & Beverage industry, the Chemical industry, the Pharmaceutical industry, and others. While processing food and beverages products, water requirements and wastewater management play an essential role. Furthermore, rising global demand for food and beverage products is expected to boost demand for wastewater and water treatment solutions over the forecast period. In the pharmaceutical industry, water preservation and monitoring of water quality are needed, as wastewater produced in the pharmaceutical industry often contains high levels of contaminants and requires wastewater treatment solutions, and it is an increasingly critical part of pharmaceutical industry operations. Moreover, the reduction of water.   The rising scarcity of portable water and increasing population are driving the municipal waste segment.
