The global water desalination market is expected
to witness substantial growth over the forecast period on account of water
scarcity, growth in pollution, urbanization, and population. Furthermore, the
market is anticipated to grow on account of technological development which has
led to decrease in the cost of the desalination process. The gap between the
supply and demand for freshwater for agricultural, industrial and domestic use
has been growing and is anticipated to grow even further over the forecast
period across the globe on account of above reasons. At the same time, the cost
of desalination has been coming down. Desalination has become affordable;
proving beneficial for people across different nations. Seawater is an abundant
source of water which can be used for desalination and made available for the
public. Affordability and extensive benefits are anticipated to be the drivers
within desalination technology markets for the forecast period.
Desalination process
separates salts and other minerals from water to make it available for various
uses in various industries. It also refers to a process where brackish water is
converted into freshwater. The awareness among people regarding desalination
process has led to the development of technology with low processing cost and
scope for innovation on account of which the market is expected to grow
extensively. Environment-friendly processes have developed for sustainable
development of desalination process industry as well as the environment.
Innovation in the sector of renewable energy and is anticipated to encourage
desalination in rural and inland communities. The investments are anticipated
to flow in the fuel rich countries as the thermal process for desalination is
expected to grow even further in the forecast period.

Water desalination market
can be bifurcated on the basis of processes in two main types into, Membranes
which is further sub categorized into multiple processes of reverse osmosis
(RO), Electrodialysis (ED) and Electrodialysis Reversal (EDR), Forward osmosis
(FO) and Membrane Distillation (MD). In reverse osmosis, saline water is passed
through membranes which let the water permeate leaving the salts behind as membranes
prove to be efficient barriers to salts. The other category for water
desalination is thermal processes which comprise of multi-stage flash
distillation, multiple effect distillation, and vapor compression. Over 60% of
water desalination of the world is done by multi-stage distillation process in
which portions of water is flashed into steam with different stages of
temperature. Advancements in the field of water desalination and reduced costs
of desalination processes have attracted many investors to spend on
desalination projects.
New environmental
regulations and a growing public awareness towards the impact on the
environment of desalination processes have changed the landscape of the water
desalination industry. New opportunities are anticipated to emerge owing to the
adoption of sustainable desalination approaches. Few methods of distillation
such as evaporation plants, solar stills, and condensation traps do not
discharge brine and do not utilize chemicals for distillation or the use of
fossil fuels making them environment-friendly.
The market in the Middle
East & Africa is anticipated to grow at a higher rate than any other region
owing to the large fossil fuel deposits in countries like Saudi Arabia,
Algeria, Dubai and South Africa which are used in thermal processes of water
desalination. Various projects are anticipated to emerge on account of the
above reason in the Middle East & African region. The market in Asia
Pacific is a developing market with developing infrastructure owing to which various
projects are anticipated to emerge and increase in market potential is
expected. The market of North America has a considerable amount of water
desalination plants, however, the market is anticipated to grow owing to the
rising awareness amongst people and companies about the limited sources of
freshwater.
The major contributors in
the water desalination technology industry are General Electric, Doosan Heavy
Industries and Co., Acciona, Genesis Water Technologies, Koch Membrane Systems,
Degremont Sas, IDE Technologies, Hyflux Ltd., Biwater, and Cadagua.
