Abstract:
According to a new technical market research report, SEAWATER AND BRACKISH WATER DESALINATION (MST052B) from BCC Research (www.bccresearch.com), the global market value for seawater and brackish water desalination was an estimated $2.9 billion in 2010, but is expected to increase to nearly $5.5 billion in 2015, for a 5-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.8%.

Global Market For Seawater And Brackish Water Desalination To Be Worth $5.5 Billion In 2015

Wellesley, MA | Posted on November 30th, 2010

The largest segment in the market, made up of conventional processes, is expected to increase at a 5-year CAGR of 13.8%, from $2.9 billion in 2010 to nearly $5.5 billion in 2015.

The segment of the market made up of other technologies is expected to reach $13 million in 2015. The market in 2010 is estimated to be $10 million. Thus, the 5-year CAGR is projected to be 5.4%.

This comprehensive technology market research report evaluates the global markets for saline water desalination plants. The goals are to provide meaningful information, unbiased analysis, and an assessment of the roles that desalination can play now and in the future of water treatment technology. Technical aspects of both thermal and membrane desalination processes are outlined, as well as a few alternative techniques that may be viable in the future. The report analyzes the water needs of 45 countries in five world regions.

Water treatment has become an area of global concern as individuals, communities, industries, countries, and their national institutions strive for ways to keep this essential resource available and suitable for use.

This study presents an overview of the technical aspects of the well-known thermal desalination methods (i.e., multistage flash distillation, multi-effect distillation, vapor compression), membrane desalination processes (i.e., reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, and a few novel desalination methods, such as freezing, gas-hydrate formation, membrane distillation, and capacitive deionization).

The report presents analysis and forward-thinking knowledge that will be advantageous to manufacturers and suppliers, as well as to local, state, and federal governments and foreign legislatures. Engineers, utilities, and corporate planners will benefit from accessing information on the global demand for desalination plants.
