What Has Been The Historical And Current Growth Of The Packaged Wastewater Treatment Market?
The packaged wastewater treatment market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size of packaged wastewater treatment has seen a swift expansion in the past few years. An increase from $26.29 billion in 2024 to $29.32 billion in 2025 is projected with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.5%.
This surge during the historic period is due to robust economic advancement in developing markets, a rise in industrialization, an escalating rate of water reuse, and growing governmental assistance.
What Is The Forecast For The Packaged Wastewater Treatment Market By 2029?
The packaged wastewater treatment market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• Expectations are high for the packaged wastewater treatment market to experience a rapid expansion in the coming years, reaching a market size of $47.1 billion in 2029 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.6%.
Factors such as water scarcity, amplified demand for clean water, swelling water consumption and an enlarging global population are contributing to this significant growth projected within the forecast timeframe. The market is expected to concentrate on introducing novel treatment technology to deliver reliable customer services and consolidate its growth. Moreover, market participants are anticipated to focus on product launchings, integrating IoT services, implementing forward-thinking digital solutions, and heightening capital investments to broaden their product portfolio and boost their revenues.
What Key Factors and Trends are Driving the Growth of the Packaged Wastewater Treatment Market?
Rising levels of water contamination and the shortage of pure water are anticipated to accelerate the expansion of the packaged wastewater treatment market. The packaged wastewater treatment procedure eliminates impurities, microbes, and various pollutants, amplifying the supply of uncontaminated water. For example, a study by the United Nations-Water, a global entity focusing on water and sanitation, stated in August 2024 that 42% of worldwide household wastewater was not safely processed before being discharged, leading to the release of approximately 113 billion cubic meters of untreated wastewater into the environment. The problem is mainly due to insufficient blackwater and greywater collection systems, such as sewerage links or septic tanks, which contribute to 45% of the untreated wastewater. As a result, the escalating levels of water contamination and the dearth of uncontaminated water will steer the advancement of the packaged wastewater treatment market.

What Trends Are Reshaping The Packaged Wastewater Treatment Market?
The trend towards technological innovation is making a strong influence in the packaged wastewater treatment market. Firms in this industry are keen on crafting cutting-edge technological offerings to bolster their market standing. For example, Evonik Industries, a company specializing in specialty chemicals from Germany, launched a new Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) plant in Dombivli, India, in May 2022. The ZLD methodology purifies and reprocesses wastewater from industrial operations, minimizing liquid waste residues. This approach not only enhances water efficiency but also considerably diminishes waste liquid volume. Furthermore, this procedure results in the generation of 15-20 metric tons of sodium sulfate and various mixed salts, products that hold potential for resale in commercial applications.
