In 2023, the ultrapure water market in the Asia-Pacific region dominated, capturing over 39% of the revenue share, primarily due to increasing demand in China, India, and Japan. China, as the leading semiconductor manufacturer, has a significant need for ultrapure water. Furthermore, it stands as the second-largest global market for pharmaceuticals, with rapid growth driven by an expanding middle class, an aging population, rising incomes, and urbanization.
North America follows as the second-largest ultrapure water market, supported by the growing adoption of smart devices, medical electronics, and the deployment of 5G technology. These advancements are boosting the electronics sector’s demand for ultrapure water, essential for producing microelectronic devices such as flat panel displays, semiconductor wafers, and solar photovoltaic cells.
Ecolab, a key player in this market, has significantly impacted water conservation efforts. For instance, their solutions enabled a mobile phone manufacturer to save approximately 300 million liters of water and nearly $2 million. Additionally, Ecolab’s interventions have led to annual savings of about 280 million liters at one customer site, equivalent to the yearly water consumption of over 255,000 people, resulting in $1.7 million in savings.
Segmental Overview
By Technology
- Reverse Osmosis
- Ultrafiltration
- Nanofiltration
- Microfiltration
- Carbon Filtration
- Electrodeionization
- Others
Among these, the Reverse Osmosis (RO) segment commands the largest market share at 48.85% in 2023, with a projected CAGR during the forecast period. The increasing demand for ultrapure RO is attributed to its capability to handle diverse flow requirements and salinity levels, while its flexible designs maximize cost-effectiveness. Utilizing membrane technology, RO systems can eliminate over 99% of contaminants, rendering the treated water suitable for numerous high-purity applications.
Alongside RO, Ultrafiltration (UF) employs a hollow fiber membrane to filter out solid debris and microscopic contaminants down to 0.025 microns, functioning as a mechanical filter. Nanofiltration, with a pore size of approximately 0.001 microns, effectively removes most organic molecules, viruses, and various salts, providing ultra-pure water that meets stringent industrial standards for all contaminant types.
