Based on end user, the municipal segment is projected to lead the water treatment chemicals market in terms of volume from 2017 to 2022
The municipal end user segment is projected to lead the water treatment chemicals market in terms of volume during the forecast period. As the global population is increasing continuously, the demand for treated quality water is also increasing. Thus, the consumption of water treatment chemicals in both, municipal and industrial sectors is increasing as there is a shortage of water resources. Municipalities treat water to meet stringent government regulations formulated to ensure public health. The water treatment chemicals in municipal water treatment plants are used for coagulation & flocculation, anti-foaming, chelation, and disinfection processes. Water treatment chemicals with a wide variety of properties are used at different stages and operating conditions in the municipal water treatment plants to remove impurities in water. Increased use of water treatment chemicals in the municipal water treatment plants is expected to drive the growth of the municipal end user segment of the water treatment chemicals market during the forecast period.
