Biodegradable Chelating Agents Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

The stringent government regulations on the treatment of water effluents are notably driving the biodegradable chelating agents market growth, although factors such as the growing availability of substitutes may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the biodegradable chelating agents industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Biodegradable Chelating Agents Market Driver

One of the key factors driving the global biodegradable chelating agents market growth is the stringent government regulations on the treatment of water effluents. Due to the limited freshwater resources, the municipal and industrial wastewater treatment chemicals market is estimated to grow during the forecast period. The increasing population and rapid urbanization will drive the demand for large volumes of water during the upcoming years. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has implemented guidelines and regulations on the proper treatment of sewage water and wastewater effluents. EPA has implemented the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), which ensures the quality of drinking water, and overseas that state, local and municipal water suppliers are adhering to the standards set by EPA through the SDWA Act. Such stringent laws to protect the environment and to keep the drinking water safe from toxicity will increase the use of biodegradable chelating agents, thereby positively impacting the market in focus during the forecast period.

Key Biodegradable Chelating Agents Market Trend

Increasing demand from the agrochemical segment is another key factor driving the global biodegradable chelating agents market growth. Factors such as rising population and food demand are expected to drive the growth in the agrochemical industry, which will support the growth in the global biodegradable chelating agents market during the forecast period. In addition, the economic development in emerging countries has contributed to the rise in the disposable income of its citizens and subsequently, resulted in new changes in lifestyle and elevated the consumption of high-quality foods. The demand for agrochemicals has also increased considerably due to the continuous loss of arable land. Biodegradable chelating agents are used by agrochemical manufacturers to formulate effective micronutrients for crops and enhance their uptake. Thus, the demand for biodegradable chelating agents in agricultural applications is expected to increase owing to its minimal environmental impact on soil fertility, which will drive the growth of the market in focus during the coming years.

Key Biodegradable Chelating Agents Market Challenge

One of the key challenges to the global biodegradable chelating agents market growth is the growing availability of substitutes. For instance, the paper and pulp industry is adopting bleaching agents such as chlorine-based, peroxide-based bleaching agents, sodium dithionate, and xylanase enzymes due to their residue-free action. Chemicals such as poly-aluminum chloride and alum are significantly used for water treatment activities due to their cost-effective nature, which will hamper the demand for biodegradable chelating agents. In addition, substitutes such as alum, aluminum sulfate, and iron salts are commonly used in many applications like wastewater treatment and paper sizing. Thus, the growing presence of substitutes in the market will significantly threaten the growth of the global biodegradable chelating agents market during the forecast period.
