Key Market Trends
Corrosion and Scale Inhibitors to Dominate the market
– Corrosion inhibitors are general purpose chemicals applied to deal with corrosion caused in boilers. Corrosion occurs due to the reaction of oxygen with metallic parts in a boiler to form oxides. Corrosion affects the metallic part of the boiler, thereby, increasing the cost of energy and maintenance. Corrosion inhibitors act by forming a thin layer of barrier over the exposed parts of the boiler from the water.
– Several types of corrosion inhibitors are used in water boilers. These include condensate line corrosion inhibitor, DEHA – diethyl hydroxyl amine, polyamine, morpholine, cyclohexylamine, and carbon dioxide corrosion inhibitor. A mixture of filming amines is used to prepare a condensate line corrosion inhibitors. This can provide protection in every stage, due to the presence of both high and low vapor/liquids.
– DEHA is a volatile compound, which is also an oxygen scavenger and acts as a metal passivating agent. Polyamine can be used in both low pressure and high-pressure boilers. Morpholine protects the boiler by increasing the pH level of the liquid. Cyclohexylamine is used in low pressure boilers. Carbon dioxide corrosion inhibitor is used, along with polyamine, to control the corrosion.
– These inhibitors are also used in cooling water treatment to ensure metal protection and prevent metal loss, which may lead to critical system failures in recirculating water piping, process cooling equipment, and heat exchangers. Corrosion inhibitors are added to the treatment systems to protect the metals, by reducing the corrosion potential associated with cathode and anode of the corrosion cell.
– The most serious form of corrosion occurs in cooling water treatment systems, which contain both steel and copper alloys.
– Scale is a precipitate that is formed on the surface of water treatment towers as a result of the precipitation of soluble solids, which become insoluble as the temperature increases. This, in turn, causes metallic corrosion that affects the functioning and maintenance of cooling water towers. This deposition increases corrosion rates, causes loss of production, restricts water flow, and interferes with heat transfer.
Municipal Industry to Drive the Market Demand
– The supply of pure water to the households is one of the chief requirements for all the governments. The rising scarcity of potable water, coupled with the growing population and increasing water demand, is the major concern that is driving the demand for the membrane water treatment chemicals market, worldwide.

– A huge increase in usage of Reserve Osmosis (RO) systems to obtain potable water has led to the rapid rise in the usage of membrane water treatment chemicals, like antiscalants, etc.
– Municipal wastewater refers to the water that drains from toilets, showers, sinks, bathrooms, washing machines, dishwashers, and liquid industrial waste. Municipal wastewater should be treated before releasing it into the environment, to avoid damage to the environment and the spreading of harmful diseases.
– The major applications of treatment technologies include preliminary treatment, primary and secondary treatment, tertiary treatment, biological nutrient removal (BNR), resource recovery, energy generation, etc.
– In the United States, wastewater treatment facilities process about 34 billion gallons of wastewater every day. This adds significant demand for water treatment chemicals from the municipal sector in the country.
– Moreover, water scarcity has been increasing dependency on wastewater treatment facilities which is likely to further create opportunities for water treatment chemicals in the country in the coming years.
Competitive Landscape
The United States water treatment chemicals market is fragmented in nature with the top five players accounting for less than 30% of the overall market share. Key players in the market studied include Ecolab, Solenis, Chemtrade, SUEZ, and Kemira, among others.
