The Latin America Water and Wastewater Treatment Market to reach $52.9 billion by 2030 at a CAGR of 4.4% during 2024–2030. The growth of the Latin America water and wastewater treatment market is driven by the increasing prevalence of waterborne diseases, rapidly diminishing freshwater resources and stringent water treatment regulations. However, high installation, maintenance, and operating costs restrain the growth of the Latin America water and wastewater treatment market. Furthermore, the growing demand for energy-efficient and advanced water treatment technologies is expected to create growth opportunities in the market. However, one of the major challenges for the players operating in this market is the lack of waste collection & treatment infrastructure.
The Growing Demand for Energy-Efficient and Advanced Water Treatment Technologies is Expected to Create Growth Opportunities in the Market
Advanced wastewater treatment is necessary as society mitigates the impacts of increased population, urbanization, industrialization, and the depletion of potable water. Wastewater treatment cannot always treat wastewater efficiently, generating several concerns, including odor issues and health problems. New techniques are needed to treat wastewater to keep up with these challenges. With the application of these treatment technologies, it is possible to further improve the quality of wastewater beyond the limitations of conventional technologies to achieve the goal of resource recovery or resource conservation. Advanced wastewater treatment plant effluents may be recycled directly or indirectly to increase domestic water supply. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, from a public health standpoint, “provisions adequate and reliable disinfection are the essential features of the advanced wastewater treatment process.”
Outdated and poorly synchronized systems are subject to malfunction and are high consumption in terms of energy. When new plants are built, or existing ones are modernized, significant amounts of energy can be saved by implementing appropriate designs and selecting energy-efficient components. Water and wastewater treatment plants can reduce their electrical and heating energy consumption by introducing an energy management system that supervises and controls all machines and devices that affect the energy consumption of the respective plant.
Opportunities for energy-efficient water treatment technologies are usually centered on pumping applications. Proper maintenance and operation of pump systems help maintain the nameplate efficiencies of the motors, pumps, and the overall pump system. Pump optimization with SCADA systems or pump optimization software is a secondary consideration. Furthermore, supplying energy-efficient ballasts for plant fluorescent fixtures and ultraviolet disinfection or pretreatment systems is an opportunity to reduce energy consumption. Thus, the growing need for advanced and energy-efficient water treatment technologies will provide significant opportunities for Latin America water and wastewater treatment systems providers during the forecast period.
