Market Overview:
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-use 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.
