Water and Wastewater Management in India 2010

Water is one of the most invaluable resources of nature and increasing water consumption is leading to its depletion. Various sectors across India are rapidly increasing and are actively contributing to the pollution of surface as well as groundwater. This calls for the active need of water management. Although water has been one of the most thriving and important issues amongst the government concerns, the private players are actively granting their support to market efficient techniques and equipments to manage water. The wastewater treatment market in India is growing at 20% and techniques like watershed management, rainwater harvesting, desalination, filtration, river-interlinking, effluent treatment and sewage treatment are finding huge importance in major cities which are the major contributors to water pollution in India.

The report begins with an overview of water situation and consumption structure in India across various sectors namely, agriculture, domestic and industries showing the growth in water consumption across the masses in India. This is followed by a section which depicts the amount of wastewater generated across sectors and the level of degradation.
It also highlights the lakes and water bodies that are under threat of depleting and being polluted.

The market overview section gives the size and growth of the wastewater treatment market and shows the various techniques of water and wastewater treatment. It also gives an in-depth analysis of the various techniques and their status in India. The characteristics and trends in the market have been analyzed and include increasing urbanization, initiatives taken at the corporate level, initiatives of various research and training institutes, increasing licensing agreements, various summits and seminars, initiatives for consumer awareness and public private partnerships. A brief analysis of the issues/challenges hindering growth are also highlighted including policy failures and institutional weaknesses, coordination and technological loopholes, multiplicity of organizations and inadequacy in generation of revenue to meet costs.

Various government bodies and programmes as well as initiatives by the NGOs that have been actively involved in conserving water and regulating its consumption and pollution have been showcased.

The competitive landscape provides a look into the nature of the market and the activities of the players and the level of competition between them. It also compares the private players according to the products and services provided by them. Brief profile with short description of the major domestic and foreign players is also included.

Desalination Technology Markets

Desalination Technology Markets
Global Demand Drivers, Technology Issues, Competitive Landscape, and Market Forecasts

Water scarcity, population and economic growth, pollution, and urbanization are all placing increased pressure on freshwater resources. The gap between the supply of freshwater and demand for water for industrial, agricultural, and domestic use is growing at an alarming pace – from California to Australia. At the same time, the cost of desalination has come down steadily. Desalination is becoming more affordable and more people can benefit from an almost unlimited resource – seawater.

The desalination plant supplier market is quite fragmented, despite a great deal of mergers and acquisitions activity during the last decade. And as reverse osmosis (RO) is increasingly adopted as the major desalination technology, the barriers to entry are being lowered. Of note, the top five suppliers captured a mere 25% of the market from 2007 to 2009. In contrast, however, the market for key desalination components is far more concentrated. For example, more than 65% of the market for RO membranes is controlled by three large players. The markets for high-pressure pumps and energy recovery devices are also quite concentrated. These competitive dynamics will be critically important as the stakes continue to increase in the rapidly-growing global desalination market.

This Pike Research report analyzes emerging technologies and market opportunities in the global desalination industry. It explores a variety of market growth drivers including dwindling water resources, population, pollution, and falling desalination system costs. Key industry players are profiled and country-level market forecasts are provided for key global markets through 2016.

Key questions addressed:

*What are the key drivers, issues and challenges in the global desalination market?
*What are the key emerging technologies, and how will their capabilities and economics impact the desalination market in years to come?
