APAC Boiler Water Treatment Chemicals Market Trends
This section covers the major market trends shaping the APAC Boiler Water Treatment Chemicals Market according to our research experts:
Scale & Corrosion Inhibitors to Dominate the Market
- Scale inhibitors is currently dominating the Asia-Pacific boiler water treatment chemicals market. During boiler water operation at industrial plants, the pipelines accumulate scale on their walls. These scales if remain untreated can cause overheating, reduced efficiency in heat transfer, tube failures and restrict circulation, which in turn will reduce the reliability on the boiler water system.
- To avoid such a situation, scale inhibitors are widely used in various industries such as oil & gas, power generation, textile, and food processing.
- As these end-user industries continue to grow, coupled with increasing focus to treat water before releasing, the demand for scale inhibitors is witnessing a significant growth in the Asia-Pacific region.
- Hence, owing to the above-mentioned factors, scale & corrosion inhibitors are likely dominate the forecast period.
