The global water treatment polymers market demand is set to experience substantial growth, with projections indicating it will reach USD 81 billion by 2033, driven by a robust compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4% from 2023 to 2033. This surge in demand is fueled by the critical role these polymers play across a diverse range of industries, including thermoelectric power plants, semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, mining and metals, oil and gas, and petrochemicals. As industries increasingly prioritize efficient water management and treatment solutions, the versatility and effectiveness of water treatment polymers are becoming pivotal in meeting the evolving needs of these sectors.
The increasing utilization of water treatment polymers in diverse sectors such as drilling, enhanced oil recovery, mining, wastewater treatment, and food industry is set to propel market growth. The increasing demand for water-soluble polymers in various applications such as stabilizers, thickeners, film formers, emulsifiers, rheology modifiers, lubricity aids, and conditioners will further contribute to industry growth in the forecast period.
The growing use of these polymers across diverse sectors such as household products, construction, detergents, personal care, food, paints & coatings, and pharmaceuticals is anticipated to drive product sales in the forecast period. The increasing adoption of polyvinyl alcohol for eco-friendly packaging, supported by government initiatives, is further expected to boost industry growth. The rising consumption of water treatment polymers is driven by their superior properties, including quick-drying, mild odor, non-flammability, and eco-friendliness.
The growing investments from major players like SNF, CNPC, BASF, and Beijing Hengju are projected to fuel market growth. The increasing production of shale gas and wet shale gas in countries such as the United States, China, Algeria, and Australia are further contributing to the rising demand in the industry.
The burgeoning demand for bio-based acrylamide, especially in the pharmaceutical sector, is anticipated to drive market growth in the coming years. The market is expected to witness significant growth driven by the rising demand for water-soluble polymers in various applications such as water treatment, enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques, drilling, and fracking.
