Global Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) System Market was valued US$ 5.42 Bn in 2018 and is expected to reach US$ 10.12 Bn by 2026, at a CAGR of 8.13 % during a forecast period.



Zero liquid discharge system market size is broadly driven by declining level of freshwater sources globally. The increasing industrialization in emerging economies such as India, China, Thailand etc. are growing unceasingly, hampering the fresh water bodies. Furthermore, the ever-growing population is also an integral factor that is positively fueling the ZLD system market size in the future. Several government organizations are imposing strict guidelines regarding the disposal of wastewater, which would directly boost the demand for zero liquid discharge (ZLD) system market in the coming years.

The report study has analyzed revenue impact of covid-19 pandemic on the sales revenue of market leaders, market followers and disrupters in the report and same is reflected in our analysis.

However, set-up cost and operating expenses may prove to be a hindrance in the growth of zero liquid discharge system market in the recent years. Also, the ZLD units acquire a lot of space and skilled laborers for its functioning that can be a challenge for the smaller industries.

According to end-user industry, the energy & power segment projected to grow at the highest rate because of regulations prohibiting the discharge of concentrated effluents in water streams during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the increase in the global demand for zero liquid discharge systems in coal-to-chemical plants and oil refineries.

Geographically, North America was the prominent region concerning the demand for zero liquid discharge. The stringent government regulations for controlling the water quality and increasing need for controlling the water quality is driving the market growth in this region. In addition, the availability of strong capital expenditure required to establish the ZLD systems at industrial locations in this region is accelerating the demand for this process. Europe is second largest market in terms of demand for the ZLD as the industries including food and beverages, textile, and others present in this region are on of highest adopters of ZLD systems to control the wastewater quality.

The APAC region is anticipated to register highest CAGR of XX % growth rate as compared to other regions in terms of demand for ZLD over forecast period. The factors such as rapid urbanization and growing industrializations in the developing economies such as India, China, and others present in this region are projected to fuel demand for ZLD. Also, increasing population in this region is creating issues such as lack of water in this region and such parameters are projected to boost the demand for zero liquid discharge is the APAC region.
