The market research firm Global Water Intelligence has announced the publication of Water Market USA, a study of the US water treatment market. The study indicates that long-term growth in spending for water and wastewater infrastructure in the United States is “guaranteed,” although spending during 2009 will be reduced.
The largest area of long-term US water infrastructure spending in dollars will be in the expansion of sewer lines while the fastest-growing market will be seawater desalination.
Other fast growing water technology markets from 2009 through 2016 will be ultrafiltration and microfiltration membranes, followed by ultraviolet disinfection, ozone disinfection, membrane bioreactors (RO), and reverse osmosis membrane systems.
Spartan Environmental Technologies supplies technologies for both ozone disinfection and UV disinfection.
