Announcing the launch of wastewater pumps with pride, Mr.G Soundararajan, Vice Chairman – C.R.I. Group said, “The world pump market estimated 42 billion USD, in which wastewater pump market is valued at 9 billion USD. Municipal wastewater plants are the major users, contributing to nearly 23% of the end-user market.The other major users are Industries like Food & Beverages, sugar, textile, paint, Tannery, paper & pulp, chemical, pharmaceutical and process industries. The Asia region is considered a key growth market, with China and India topping the list”.
The Indian raw and wastewater market is estimated around INR2000 Crores.The Indian wastewater market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 12% during 2016-2021. Rapid urbanisation, Water scarcity, Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) norms, Industrialisation are the demand drivers that contributeto the market demand. Swachh Bharat mission, smart cities, National River Conservation Plan (NRCP) and Clean River Ganga Mission will further drive the Municipal wastewater treatment industry over the coming years.
As per the latest Ministry of Environment communication, Currently 62,000 MLD of wastewater is generated in Urban area of India while the capacity for treating wastewater stands at a mere 23,000 MLD.
Untreated sewage & industrial effluents pollute the surface and ground waterwhich is the main source of drinking water, leading to public health concerns. The per capita water supply currently stands at 188.73 litres/day. A massive 73% of this becomes wastewater, demonstrating the seriousness of the wastewater problem. India ranksan alarming IIIrdposition in the list of most water polluted countries based on the deteriorating quality of water ranking.
By the year 2030, water demand is expected to grow to 1.5 trillion Cu.m.,with supply at about 740billion Cu.m,leading to a whopping 50% shortage in India.In this scenario, wastewater recycle and reuse is a more economical measure compared to any other, thus increasing the demand for wastewater pumps and treatment systems. According to C.R.I., weak regulatory enforcements and lack of public awareness seem to be the industry restraints. The rapid growth of urban population is creating huge pressure on existing water and wastewater infrastructure.
Mr. G. Soundararajan further added, ”C.R.I. with its 7 foreign subsidiary companies, 32 branches in India and the strong distribution network available in 120 countries will greatly help to market these products for the growing global demand.
