Water Desalination Market
Desalination has become an appealing option that addresses dwindling fresh water supplies as countries seek solutions on how to tackle water scarcity caused by population growth, climate change, pollution, and industrial development. In addition to this, the industries have done much to lower the cost of desalination. Advances in technology have led to increased energy efficiency, where greater economies of scale have also helped lower costs helping the growth of the overall water desalination equipment market. Desalination is a process that separates dissolved salts and other minerals from seawater or other salinized/brackish water. It is considered as a substitute and sustainable supply of fresh water with the required quantity and quality. The major benefit of desalination is that it can continue to deliver high-quality drinking water for consumption, even during periods of drought. It also provides an alternative source of water that will make our overall supply more diverse and less vulnerable to interruption. Currently, seawater desalination represents 62.4% of market in terms of input. Brackish water desalination represents another 20%, followed by river water desalination at 7.5%. Among various regions of the global water desalination equipment market, the Middle East will remain the dominant market.
