Brazil Biosolids Market Opportunity and Demand 2021-2025 [ 2023 UPDATE Available – Forecast 2023-2030*] The global biosolids market is poised to witness significant growth in the coming years, providing an effective solution for reusing waste material and promoting sustainable waste management practices. Biosolids, which are organic materials derived from the treatment of wastewater sewage sludge, offer numerous benefits and applications across various industries. Access Full Report: https://www.fairfieldmarketresearch.com/report/global-biosolids- market According to recent market research, the global biosolids market was valued at US$1.4 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach US$1.9 billion by 2025, reflecting a healthy growth rate of 4.7% between 2021 and 2025. The market saw the production of over 35 million tonnes of biosolids for beneficial use worldwide in 2018, with Europe accounting for more than 25% of the global consumption. European Commission and European Governments have supported biosolids as an environmentally-friendly solution for waste disposal. Additionally, the United States, as the largest producer in North America, primarily utilizes
biosolids for land application. These trends indicate a promising future for the global biosolids market. In the Asia Pacific region, countries such as China and India are actively investing in the development of sludge management strategies and exploring better alternatives for sludge treatment and disposal. China is expected to surpass North America in the coming years due to significant investments in wastewater treatment technologies for environmental protection. The classification of biosolids is based on regulations and includes Class A, Class B, and Class A (EQ). Class A biosolids are pathogen-free and suitable for applications involving public contact. They meet the stringent standards set by governing bodies such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Class B biosolids have a lower level of pathogens and are commonly used in agricultural or land reclamation applications. However, due to issues such as bad odor, high vector attraction, and pathogens, there is a noticeable shift in customer preference from Class B to Class A and Class A (EQ). These two classifications are expected to account for over 50% of the total biosolids market by the end of the forecast period. Class B biosolids also face increased scrutiny from regulatory authorities and are not suitable for application in home lawns and gardens. Agriculture currently represents over 60% of the biosolids market consumption. Biosolids are rich in micro and macro nutrients, making them valuable fertilizers, soil replacement products, and soil conditioners for agricultural purposes. Other significant applications of biosolids include forestry and landscaping, land reclamation, construction materials, and heat generation. Governments worldwide are actively supporting biosolids management programs as part of circular economy initiatives. With increasing pressure from regulatory bodies to phase out landfilling and strict regulations on wastewater treatment and waste disposal, biosolids offer a sustainable solution. Recycling biosolids in agriculture provides greenhouse gas benefits through carbon recycling and nourishes vegetation, enabling further CO2 capture. The recycling of biosolids into agriculture is recognized as the best environmental option by the U.K. Government and the European Union. Biosolids also offer a compelling case for reducing reliance on commercial fertilizers. There is a growing trend towards their use in amenity horticulture, including floriculture, greenhouse container gardening, and arboriculture. By reducing dependency on synthetic fertilizers, biosolids contribute to lower greenhouse gas emissions, improve water holding capacity, and enhance soil structure. Additionally, biosolids play a crucial role in the treatment and reclamation of former mining sites, as they can upgrade the land and facilitate vegetation establishment. However, challenges such as malodour from biosolids have created negative publicity in recent years. To ensure the success of biosolids programs, organizations like the EPA emphasize the need for public support. Effectively and safely managing biosolids, which are produced in large quantities, remains a major challenge for communities. It is crucial for the public and other stakeholders to understand that biosolids are essential byproducts of modern sanitation and play a key role in waste management and sanitation practices. The transportation and cost of moving disposal water/waste, as well as difficulties in raising capital for new plants, may restrict market growth to some extent.
In the global biosolids market, companies such as Cleanaway, SUEZ, Veolia, and Thames Water are at the forefront, offering integrated business solutions and holding strong positions in their respective regions. These companies are actively seeking partnerships with fertilizer companies to explore new application avenues. For example, Aries Clean Energy received approvals for its large-scale biosolids gasification plant in 2019, which converts waste into renewable energy and biochar. The need for cost-competitive technologies and innovation is driving the development of disruptive technologies in the biosolids market, with several companies expected to introduce new solutions in the coming years. Companies like Mannco in the United States are focused on developing low-cost, energy-efficient, and high-quality (EQ) biosolids technologies. The biosolids market presents a compelling case for sustainable waste management and the elimination of commercial fertilizers. With increasing government support and the drive towards circular economies, biosolids offer a viable solution for reusing waste materials and promoting environmental sustainability.
