Saudi Arabia Water Treatment Chemicals market was valued at USD 919.28 million in 2022 and is anticipated to project robust growth during the forecast period, registering a CAGR of 4.48%, owing to rapidly increasing population and scarcity of clean and safe water in Saudi Arabia.
Water Treatment is a complex process that involves a variety of chemicals to alter the pH of the water and avoid the release of pollutants, such as heavy metals, semi-volatile organic compounds and pesticides into the neighboring environment. Chemical treatment of wastewater is used by industries, such as energy production, pharmaceutical, and paper production.
With the growing urbanization and economic development, the existing water supply is unlikely to satisfy the ever-growing demands of water. Hence, the chemical industry uses advanced ways of water treatment in order to make water suitable for end-use, such as drinking, cooking, irrigation and industrial purpose to name a few. The water treatment techniques use four basic processes that include boiler water treatment, cooling water treatment, water purification and treatment of wastewater effluent.
