Key Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection Equipment Market Driver
The evolving benefits of UV disinfection equipment is a key factor driving the market growth. Water is essential for all life forms and is widely used in municipal, industrial, and commercial processes, often in large quantities. However, it must be clean to prevent equipment damage and product contamination. Natural water sources contain dissolved minerals, solids, microorganisms, and organic materials. Some industries prefer UV disinfection equipment for their process water due to several advantages:
Chemical-Free: UV disinfection is chemical-free, unlike chlorine systems which can produce hazardous by-products.
Ease of Use: UV systems are easier to store and install compared to chlorine, which requires storage and dosing equipment, increasing costs.
Speed: UV disinfection works faster as it relies on light radiation, quickly eliminating microbial organisms.
The numerous benefits of UV disinfection equipment are expected to drive market growth in the forecast period.
Key Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection Equipment Market Trends
Growing demand for ultrapure water is a key trend shaping the market. Ultrapure water, crucial for various industries, is achieved through a combination of water purification methods like reverse osmosis, striving for high purity by minimizing impurities and gas content. It is often defined by its electrical resistivity ratio, typically falling within the range of 0.1-1.5 MΩ cm. Depending on the purification process, it may be referred to as desalinated, RO, or distilled water. Primarily used in pharmaceutical and semiconductor sectors, it ensures cleanliness in sensitive processes, such as semiconductor chip production and power plant turbine operation.
Ultrapure water also finds applications in healthcare, beverage dilution, and more. UV disinfection equipment plays a crucial role in producing ultrapure water by reducing TOC, disinfecting, and eliminating unwanted elements like chlorine and chloramine, thereby driving the global UV disinfection equipment market's growth during the forecast period.
Major Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection Equipment Market Challenge
The availability of refurbished UV disinfection equipment is a key factor hindering market growth. Acquiring new UV disinfection equipment can strain budgets in industries like food and beverage. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) often choose refurbishment or repair over buying new when their existing UV disinfection equipment becomes outdated or malfunctions. This collective process, known as re-engineering, involves cleaning and repairing various components, ensuring safety and regulatory compliance.
UV disinfection equipment, commonly used in wastewater treatment and food and beverage industries, can deteriorate due to exposure to various materials and chemicals. Many enterprises now prefer re-engineering to control costs. As a response, vendors offer refurbished UV disinfection equipment. For instance, UV Superstore Inc. offers reconditioned UV systems, such as the IH-12L Used UV Water Treatment System, for industrial applications. The availability of refurbished UV equipment may impact new UV disinfection equipment sales and market growth during the forecast period.
