Organic Coagulant Market: By Type (Polyamine, PolyDADMAC, EPI-POLYAMINES, DICY Polymer), By Application (Municipal Water Treatment, Industrial Water Treatment), and Geography

Organic Coagulant Market size was valued at USD 1,983.7 million in 2022 and is poised to grow at a significant CAGR of 8.0% from 2023-2029. Organic Coagulants are generally synthesized monomers of aluminum and iron-based coagulants that are used in wastewater settings for floc buildings. They are water-soluble in wastewater treatment they are used to remove a wide variety of hazardous materials ranging from organic matter and pathogens to inorganic and toxic materials like chemical phosphorous, fluoride and arsenic. According to global trends, in high-income countries, municipal and industrial wastewater treatment is about 70%. Furthermore, they are used as part of the pulp, paper and textile manufacturing process, and in oil, gas and mining operations. Based on its use in the pulp and paper industry, textile industry, dye waste, vegetable tannery and palm oil effluent industry, the organic coagulant market is anticipated to show significant growth over the forecasting period.

Moreover, the rising awareness about organic coagulants over inorganic coagulants owing to their biodegradability and the increased stringent laws that government imposes for the discharge and disposal of wastewater from the industries has led to a tremendous rise in the market that is further expected to rise in the forecast years. However, the COVID-19 pandemic led to a significant drop in the organic coagulant market. In addition, the disruption in the supply of raw materials led to decreased production and an increase in the cost of organic coagulants. Also, organic coagulants are sensitive to changes in pH and temperature further decreasing their market. However, the increased necessity to monitor and regulate water quality, increased awareness of the population towards biodegradable products, governmental initiatives to safeguard watersheds and drinking water sources, tight environmental regulatory framework, developing technologies and increased urbanization has heightened the overall growth of the market.
