• Middle East & North Africa are the world’s most water scarce countries in 2019. According to the United Nations, the 17 countries in the
Middle East and North Africa region are ranked below the global water poverty line. Therefore, these countries are increasingly focusing
on water conservation, reuse and recycling of water.
• Middle East produces more than 40% of the global crude oil every year, which requires considerable amount of water for purification
process. The region is also witnessing an influx of expatriates which is further catalyzing the need for careful use of water. All, these
developments in the MEA region has been acting as the major growth drivers for water treatment chemicals.

MEA Water & Waste Water Treatment Chemicals Industry Outlook, By Type (1/3)
• The Governments in the countries of Middle East and Africa have been investing in setting up water treatment plants not only for the
drinking purpose but also for the irrigation usage. Therefore, the demand for water chemicals is set to surge during the forecast period.
The desalination process requires the water to be at a suitable pH before and after the process. Attaining a suitable pH value for water
requires pH adjusters and softeners. Therefore, pre-treatment and post-treatment of drinking water is expected to boost the demand for
pH adjusters and softeners in the years to come.
• In addition, rapid industrialization and increased requirement of water have resulted in the scarcity of potable drinking water and water
for industrial use. Contamination of water resources have led to treating the waste water in order to obtain clean water. The process of
waste water treatment would require the utilization of chemicals such as coagulants, flocculants, biocide, softeners, etc. The increasing use
of waste water treatment chemicals is expected to surge its demand in the forthcoming period

• Middle East and Africa region is one the most water scarce region across the globe. Further, the region is also the major fuel supplier
which catalyzes requires extensive water. The drinking water requirement of the region is around 50% more than the global average.
Therefore, the relevance of water and waste water management industry becomes highly acute. Eventually, the water treatment chemicals
become an indispensable part of the water ecosystem in the region.
• The negative impact of climate change in Africa have resulted in floods and droughts. By 2030, water deficit in the region is projected to be
between x.x and x.x billion cubic meters, a gap of xx% (reported by XXX). Therefore, it is essential for the country to establish waste water
treatment plants in the region, especially in South Africa, Algeria, Morocco, etc. which would require water & waste water treatment
chemicals. Hence, it would boost the demand for chemicals in the country.

Middle East Water & Waste Water Treatment Chemicals Industry Outlook, By Revenue (1/2)
• Middle East is one of the most arid regions, and yet it has amongst the highest per capita consumption of water in the world. The main
challenges Middle East faces are a lack of renewable water sources coupled with an escalation of water demand in every sector stemming
from fast economic development. Therefore, Middle East waste water treatment industry is expanding at an exponential pace, with the
aim of fulfilling water requirements of rising population and manufacturing industry.
• In 2019, the region has planned to invest around USD80 billion in water and waste water treatment related projects. The tentative
completion deadlines for these projects spans up to 2025. This investments is expected to act as a major push for the growth of water and
waste water treatment chemicals.
• With the global temperatures continue to rise, the region is set to experience an above average increase in temperatures, decrease in
precipitation and rising sea levels. Consequently, the sales for water treatment chemicals is projected to rise during the forecast period.

• The Middle East region meets its water needs through recycling of the waste water or the process of desalination. Therefore, the water
treatment chemicals forms the most important part of the ecosystem.
• Coagulants and flocculants grabbed a major share in the water and waste treatment chemicals for solids removal, water clarification, lime
softening, sludge thickening, and solids dewatering. Moreover, the usage of disinfectants and biocides has been rising in the country.
• Due to high salinity in the water in the entire middle east region, the demand for ph conditioners has been on the rise. The same trend is
expected during the forecast period.
• The demand for such chemicals will remain persistent during the forecast period as well owing the surge in construction industry and
economic expansion resulting into labor migration. Moreover, the growing focus on tourism activities to boost government earnings has
been pushing for the greater demand for water treatment chemicals.
