Abstract
Water treatment in China to lead world in growth
For the past several decades, China has registered faster economic growth than any other large nation. Until recently, however, water usage in China has been fairly indiscriminate, with little attention paid to misuse and pollution. Although water use has become more efficient and treatment techniques have become more widely used in recent years, China still uses much more water to produce a ton of paper or steel than do industrialized nations in Western Europe, the United States or Japan. Industrial users who had once just discarded wastewater without regard for short- or long-term environmental impact have begun to comply with more assertive regulations for effluent discharges. Water supplied by municipal providers -- which still leave a significant share of the Chinese population unserved -- has generally been either untreated or undertreated. Even water deemed "fully treated" is usually not safe to drink without first being boiled, although efforts to improve the reach of the Chinese water infrastructure and the quality of the water it delivers have been substantial.
The newfound commitment to better water management practices has boosted demand for water treatment products to almost the ¥20 billion mark, and will continue to build on exceptionally strong gains despite minimal changes in overall water usage. Although industrial expansion will continue at a globe-leading pace and urban population increases will continue as people move away from agricultural areas and into metropolitan areas, improvements in efficiency and reduced agricultural water usage will offset increased industrial activity and municipal water demand. Even so, water treatment product demand will register outstanding growth as food and beverage processors seek to improve finished product quality, papermakers reduce water expenditures by treating water for reuse, municipalities strive to supply safe, high-quality water to their citizens, and consumers look to home filtration gear such as sinktop systems and carafes with activated carbon units to improve the flavor and quality of water in their homes.
Study coverage
