The global boiler water treatment chemicals market has been
segmented by type, conditioning method, end-use industry, and region.
By type, the global boiler water treatment chemicals market has been
further segmented into oxygen scavengers, sludge conditioners, alkalinity builders,
condensate line, multifunctional, scale inhibitors, anti-foaming agents,
sequestering agents, and others. The oxygen scavengers sub-segment accounts for
a major market share due to the ability of these chemicals to remove residual
oxygen from the boiler feed water. They decrease the corrosion rate of boilers
through the formation of a passivation layer on the metal surface of the
boilers. The scale inhibitors sub-segment accounted for the second-largest
market share. Scale inhibitors prevent scaling, which, if left unremoved, can
cause localized overheating, reduced heat efficiency, and tube failure. The use
of sludge conditioners prevents the formation of scale by hard water, ensuring
that the precipitated hardness is converted into a mobile sludge which can be
removed through blow down.
Based on the conditioning method, the market has been divided into
external treatment and internal treatment. External treatment refers to the
reduction or removal of impurities such as calcium, magnesium, silica, and
others before the water enters the boiler. Types of external treatment include
softening, evaporation, deaeration, and membrane contractors. The external
treatment process removes or reduces the bicarbonate content of the make-up
water and, thus, is beneficial in minimizing return line system corrosion
problems. Internal treatment is the conditioning of impurities within the
boiler system. Its purpose is to properly react with feed water hardness,
condition sludge, scavenge oxygen, and prevent boiler water foaming. Internal
treatment may be used alone or in conjunction with external treatment for the
trouble-free operation of modern boilers.
The market has been segmented, by end-use industry, into power, oil
and gas, chemicals and petrochemicals, food and beverage, paper and pulp,
textiles and dyes, and others. The power sub-segment accounts for the majority of
the market share as the steam generated from boilers is used for power
generation. The demand for boiler water treatment chemicals is increasing due
to the environmental issues caused by untreated effluent water by industries
such as food and beverages and textiles.

Regional Analysis
The global boiler water treatment chemicals market has been analyzed
with respect to five regions—Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin
America, and the Middle East and Africa.
The market in Asia Pacific dominated the global boiler water treatment
chemicals market in 2017 on account of the high demand from major end-ue
industries in the region.
Textiles and clothing is a diverse sector that plays an important
role in the European manufacturing industry and is, therefore, expected to
drive the global boiler water treatment chemicals market in Europe.
The high demand from the food packaging and textiles industries is
expected to drive the boiler water treatment chemicals market in North America
during the forecast period.
