The water treatment sector from peracetic acid market is anticipated to generate a revenue of over USD 335 million by 2027. Peracetic acid is a better disinfectant for water treatment than chlorine-based disinfectants as the former prevents the formation of toxic chlorinated side products. In addition, algae & bacteria can grow in cooling circuits and produce slime, which rapidly forms deposits and results in clogging problems.
 

Adding peracetic acid to the intake water stream prevents microbial growth and thus reduces the plugging of heat exchangers and cooling systems. Water treatment is a flourishing industry in North America and Europe. In the coming years, Asia Pacific will become the growth driver of this industry owing to the rising demand for clean water in the region.
