The global primary water & wastewater treatment equipment market size was valued at USD 61.60 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4% from 2021 to 2028. Wastewater treatment is the process of treating water so that it can be used for a variety of purposes, including drinking, irrigation, and industrial purposes. Wastewater treatment removes undesired contaminants and reduces the risk of adverse health effects.
In primary treatment, floating debris such as wood, rags, and other heavy objects are removed from waste water using physical processes such as screening, commination, grit removal, and sedimentation. The slurry is passed through several tanks and filters that separate water from contaminants.
During the primary treatment process, around 65% of the grease & oil, over 50% to 70% of the total suspended solids (TSS), and 25% to 35% of the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) are removed.
Market Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities:
- Demand for fresh and clean water increased, due to rapid urbanization, development of infrastructure, technological advancements, and growth in population. This is expected to drive the market.
- Low operating costs and high market visibility for the process are considered as crucial factors for the growth of market during the forecast period.
- Governments of most countries are imposing stringent rules for the treatment of water, which is expected to drive the market.
- Ageing infrastructure is a major restraint for the growth of the market, as most plants were set up a few decades back and high costs are required to upgrade the plants.

Market Segment Insights:
The primary clarifier segment is projected to expand at a rapid pace
Based on products, the market is segregated into primary clarifier, sludge removal, and grit removal. The primary clarifier segment held 28% of the total revenue in 2019. Primary clarifiers are being used in paper mills which aid in the removal of fibre from waste streams and help to increase product demand. Screening goods such as waterfall screens, bar screens, coarse screens, and trash racks are commonly used in pre-treatment equipment to remove oil and grease from wastewater. The grit removal segment is projected to expand at a CAGR of 3.3% during forecast period in terms of revenue, owing to its ability to remove gravel, cinder, bone chips, coffee grounds, sand, seeds, and large organic particles such as food waste.
The municipal segment held major market share in 2020
On the basis of applications, the market is fragmented into municipal, industrial, and others. The municipal segment held major share of the market around 64% of the total revenue. The growth of segment is attributed to factors such as rising residential construction, an increasing number of rural households migrating to public sewers, fast urbanization, and population expansion. The industrial segment is projected to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period. The industrial applications include sectors such as chemical, pulp & paper, food & beverage, pharmaceutical, and oil and gas. Factors such as the presence of rigorous sludge discharge laws and increased investments in various industries are likely to drive demand for primary water and wastewater treatment equipment during the forecast period. High amounts of suspended particles, BOD and COD from the digestion process, and chlorinated organic compounds from the bleaching process distinguish the effluent from the paper and pulp sector.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to dominate the market
In terms of regions, the market is classified as North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. Asia pacific dominated the market with 33.5% of the global revenue in 2020, due to the large customer base and strong demand for the primary & waste water market treatment equipment in the region. The other major factors for share include improving economic conditions and increasing population.
