San Antonio, TX- Verify Markets has released the “United
States Water and Wastewater Analytical Instrumentation Market” report for
2012. The U.S. water and wastewater
analytical instrumentation market was estimated to be over $320 million in
2011. The market is expected to show a steady growth through the forecast
period (2011-2018).
The total U.S. conductivity instrumentation market was the
second largest component of the total market in 2011. The
conductivity instrumentation market is highly fragmented with several
participants. Water reuse, environmental regulations, increasing labor costs, increased
demand for automated smarter and simpler technologies are some of the key
drivers for the online conductivity instrumentation market. Water reuse
and recycling applications, oil exploration, and mining are some of the
industries that have started using online continuous conductivity instruments
in the recent years.
The Total Organic Carbon (TOC) instrumentation market was
estimated to be over $15 million in 2011. Process control and increasing
confidence among consumers are they key drivers for TOC instruments.
The total phosphorus and total nitrogen instrumentation
markets are still in their infancy. Awareness of the benefits of the analysis
is a huge driver. Hach Company emerged as the market leader in both these
markets for the U.S. in 2011.
The total U.S. turbidity/suspended solids instrumentation
market was estimated to be over $40 million in 2011. Legislation and process
control are the key drivers in the total turbidity market. Some of the key players
in the turbidity instrumentation market include Hach Company, Emerson Process
Management, Endress + Hausser Inc., Mettler Toledo Inc., and Xylem Inc.
The total U.S. dissolved oxygen instrumentation market was
valued close to the turbidity market in revenues in 2011. The pH market was the largest among all the
segments for the total U.S. water and wastewater analytical instrumentation
market. Environmental regulations are one of the key drivers
for pH instruments.
This study captures market size estimates for online, as
well as portable, instruments. It provides market drivers, restraints, pricing
trends, market share analysis, distribution trends and quotes captured by key
industry participants during the research process. The base year of the study
is 2011 and revenue forecasts are provided until 2018. The instruments covered
in the study include conductivity, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, total organic
carbon, pH total phosphorus and total nitrogen.
