Report Description<br />
<strong>Sludge</strong> is produced largely from the treatment of waste water in the industries. It consists<br />
of pathogens, microorganisms and many other chemicals. Its disposal is expected to be<br />
one of the major environment related concerns in the recent years. The sludge generated<br />
has to be treated properly before disposal. Moreover, the reuse of treated sludge in<br />
agricultural processes is increasing the demand for sludge treatment. This has led to a<br />
rise in the demand for sludge treatment chemicals in the recent years. Coagulants and<br />
flocculants are used in the sludge treatment processes for removal of solids, sludge<br />
thickening, solids dewatering and many more. Coagulants are classified as organic<br />
coagulants and inorganic coagulants. Flocculants are of two types cationic flocculants and<br />
anionic flocculants. According to the environmental agencies, the volume of the sludge<br />
produced must be reduced. This is done by the sludge treatment chemicals. However, the<br />
global sludge treatment chemicals market is anticipated to witness a moderate single<br />
digit growth in the forecast period.<br />
<strong>Sludge</strong> <strong>Treatment</strong> <strong>Chemicals</strong> <strong>Market</strong>: Drivers and Restraints<br />
Rapid industrialization in the developing countries is increasing the production of sludge,<br />
thus making the removal of sludge important. This in turn, is expected to drive the<br />
demand for sludge treatment chemicals in the near future. Stringent government<br />
regulations pertaining to the treatment of sludge in industries is expected to boost the<br />
demand for sludge treatment chemicals in the upcoming years. Companies are striving to<br />
decrease the toxicity in the industrial sludge, thus the demand for sludge treatment<br />
chemicals is anticipated to boost in the forecast period.
