Flocculants Market: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast 2021-2031 Market

Flocculants Market Analysis 2020-2027

Flocculants or flocculating operators (also known as flocking agents) are synthetic compounds that promote flocculation by making colloids and other suspended particles in fluids aggregate, shaping a floc. Flocculants are utilized in water treatment procedures to improve the sedimentation or filterability of little particles. For instance, a flocculant might be utilized in pool or drinking water filtration to help removal of microscopic particles which would somehow or another reason the water to be turbid (shady) and which would be difficult to remove by filtration alone. Flocculants work by assembling the destabilized particles together and causing them to agglomerate and drop out of the solution. Some of the commonly used Flocculants for treating water are activated silica, colloidal clays (such as bentonite), and a few metallic hydroxides with a complex structure (alum, ferric hydroxide, etc.). Flocculants offer various points of advantages in industrial and water treatment applications, for example, costs reserve funds, upgraded molecule suspension rates, improved clarity of aqueous phase, more filtration on channels and dryings beds, higher through-put rates on creation hardware, littler size of tanks, thickeners and centrifuges required and less complex tasks.

COVID-19 scenario analysis:

• The global market for flocculants is severely impacted by the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. 
• The COVID-19 pandemic saw a decline in the economic growth in almost all the major countries, thus affecting consumer spending patterns. 
• Owing to the lockdown implemented across various countries, national and international transport have been hampered, which has significantly impacted the supply chain of numerous industries across the globe, thereby increasing the supply–demand gap.
• Thus, insufficiency in raw material supply is expected to hamper the production rate of Flocculants, which negatively impact the market growth. 

Top impacting factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers and Impact Analysis

The process of flocculation is simple and cost effective. It efficiently splits many kinds of particles from water. Rise in demand from end-use applications such as municipal water treatment, power generation, mine water treatment, and chemical processing is expected to drive the Flocculants market. Expanding oilfield explorations and developments in the oil and gas industry will lead to growing applications of Flocculants for partition of fluids and strong particles. Chemical enterprises are carefully directed to dispose waste water suitably by meeting certain parameters, which is prompting rising demand in this part.  There are some restrain for this market such as it is a time-consuming process and required trained personnel for operating and maintaining. There are also chances of transfer of toxic compounds to solid state, which can lead to formation of mud or sludge and cease the process of water treatment. This hinders the flocculants market growth.  

New product launches to flourish the market 

Kemira, a global chemicals company serving customers in water intensive industries, launched new high-performance cationic flocculants, precisely engineered for sludge dewatering applications. The Kemira Superfloc XD-7600 polymer is intended to assist clients with reducing their total Cost of Ownership through increasingly proficient sludge handling of, including cargo and disposal costs. This is the first in a range of inventive premium polymers. The dry item additionally limits stockpiling and transport costs. XD-7600 altogether improves cake solids and filtrate quality in comparison to conventional cationic polymers and is effective at low dosage levels.

Surge in usage in Flocculants and water treatment plants applications

The flocculant market has seen critical development in recent years, owing from severe guideline related to environment and water treatment. Expanding population and industrialization, combined with declining freshwater assets has constrained government and authorities of a few nations to actualize stricter water treatment guidelines, which, thus, are driving the utilization of flocculant around the globe. The essential municipal water treatment forms are desalination, sewage treatment, and water processing. Flocculants are widely usedin different industries such as paper & pulp, and oil & gas, for treatment and recycling of wastewater which expects to boost the demand of these chemicals.
