Water Recycle And Reuse Market Trends

The global water recycle and reuse market size was estimated at USD 16.13 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 9.7% from 2024 to 2030. The increasing scarcity of freshwater resources, rising environmental awareness, and stringent regulations on wastewater discharge are driving the demand for water recycling and reuse solutions. Water recycling and reuse involve the treatment of wastewater to make it suitable for various non-potable and potable applications. The process helps conserve water resources, reduce pollution, and promote sustainable water management practices.

Water Recycle & Reuse Market Size by End Use, 2020 - 2030 (USD Billion)

Drivers, Opportunities & Restraints

The market is driven by several factors, including increasing water scarcity and the need for sustainable water management practices, stringent environmental regulations, and the growing demand for treated water in industrial and agricultural applications. Rising awareness about the benefits of water recycling and the implementation of water reuse policies by governments are also contributing to market growth.

According to the United Nations, at least half of the world's population, around 4 billion people, experiences water shortages for one month of the year. By 2025, around 1.8 billion people are expected to experience severe water shortages and absolute water scarcity. Due to the rising severity of water scarcity, recycling activities and the reuse of treated water will likely gain momentum across various end-use sectors such as industrial, commercial, and residential.

Moreover, advancements in water treatment technologies, such as membrane filtration and advanced oxidation processes, provide significant growth opportunities. The growing investments in water infrastructure and the increasing adoption of decentralized water treatment systems drive the market.

End Use Insights

“The demand for residential segment is expected to grow at a significant CAGR of 10.0% from 2024 to 2030 in terms of revenue.”

The industrial segment led the market, accounting for 49.33% of the global revenue share in 2023. The increasing adoption of water recycling and reuse solutions in various industries, such as power generation, oil and gas, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals, is driving the demand in this segment. Industries are focusing on reducing their water footprint and complying with environmental regulations, boosting the adoption of water recycling and reuse systems.

The commercial sector, including hospitality, healthcare, and education, is increasingly adopting water recycling and reuse to ensure operational efficiency and reduce costs. The increasing adoption of water recycling systems in buildings, hotels, and residential complexes to reduce water consumption and promote sustainability is likely to boost the market growth over the forecast period.

Equipment Insights

“The demand for filtration segment is expected to grow at a significant CAGR of 10.4% from 2024 to 2030 in terms of revenue.”

The filtration segment led the market, accounting for 33.94% of the global revenue share in 2023. Filtration technologies, such as reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, and nanofiltration, are widely used in water recycling and reuse due to their high efficiency and ability to remove a wide range of contaminants. The increasing adoption of filtration technologies in industrial and municipal water treatment applications is driving the demand in this segment.

Water Recycle & Reuse Market Share by Equipment, 2023 (%)
