Sludge is primarily a by-product which is produced from the treatment of wastewater in various industries. It contains pathogens, organic matters, chemicals, and some microorganisms. It also contains some other harmful agents, including heavy metals, which further affect the environment and cause severe health issues for humans when directly exposed to air & water body. Hence, sludge requires further treatment for reducing its volume and to render it for safe disposal. Sludge treatment chemicals are basically employed to purify water prior it can be released into the atmosphere. This treatment essentially aims to reduce the volume of water and pathogen content in order to facilitate the safe disposal and possible usage of sludge as fertilizer.
MARKET DYNAMICS
The sludge treatment chemicals market has witnessed a significant growth owing to factors such as wider application in end-use industries including oil & gas, metal processing, food & beverage, pulp & paper, electronics, chemicals, and others.
