Highlights

The global market for UV disinfection equipment will grow from nearly $1.4 billion in 2015 to nearly $2.8 billion by 2020 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.6% for the period of 2015-2020.
Water as a segment will grow from $803 million in 2015 to nearly $1.5 billion by 2020 with a CAGR of 12.8%.
The wastewater sector is the second largest segment and will grow from $365 million in 2015 to $929 million by 2020 with a CAGR of 20.5%.

STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

Water and air are basic human necessities. Ultraviolet (UV) disinfection technologies continue to play an increasingly influential role in ensuring the delivery of safe drinking water to more of the global population. However, the journey of its acceptance has been far from smooth. Ultraviolet technologies had to contend with a formidable adversary in the form of chlorination, and more critically, misconceptions about effects of exposure to ultraviolet light. Stakeholders associated with ultraviolet disinfection have done commendable work to dispel most of these misunderstandings.

The path of ultraviolet technologies in water-related disinfection continues to become smoother.
This report highlights the fact that ultraviolet technologies can enter each reuse and recycling of water, including extremely contaminated wastewater in an efficient and cost-effective manner.

Ultraviolet disinfection technology stakeholders now have their task cut out regarding air and surface purification technical and perception challenges. The technical challenge relates to the amount of dosage and exposure permissible for human beings.

The perception challenge is educating people about the acuteness of indoor air pollution. While the operating principles of ultraviolet disinfection remain consistent in air, water and surface targets, it has a long way to go before ultraviolet technology can contribute meaningfully to air and surface disinfection.

This report is an update of IAS037B, which was published in 2013. The global ultraviolet disinfection technology market is vibrant, and poised to grow during the forecast period from 2015 to 2020.

This BCC Research report provides an in-depth analysis of the world market for UV equipment across a range of applications, including the treatment of water (municipal and residential drinking water, pool and spa water, water for aquaculture and agriculture and industrial process water), municipal wastewater, food and beverage, and air and surface disinfection. A detailed discussion of each of these end uses includes market size estimates and forecast growth rates for the five-year period from 2015 to 2020.
