Growing Demand for Water Treatment Application Fosters Calcium Hypochlorite Market

Since calcium hypochlorite is frequently used to filter drinking water, its demand is anticipated to increase significantly around the globe during the forecast period. However, industrial activity has dumped several waste products into the water. They become dangerous and poisonous when used by humans as a result. Between 2000 and 2050, the predicted increase in water consumption is 55%. Agriculture will account for the majority of this demand. By 2035, the amount of freshwater used for food processing will increase by 69% globally. Freshwater supplies are, however, being depleted more quickly than they can be replenished. Water must therefore be artificially treated to make it useable. The increasing usage of this product in spas and swimming pools is anticipated to promote worldwide calcium hypochlorite market expansion. Of China’s 32,500 swimming facilities as of December 2021, 57% were outdoor swimming pools, and the remaining 41% were indoor swimming pools.

Chemicals are employed to purify the water. This is one of the factors driving the growth of the calcium hypochlorite market.

Calcium Hypochlorite Market: COVID-19 Impact

The global calcium hypochlorite market has benefited from the new coronavirus pandemic outbreak. With the lack of particular immunizations to fight the infection during the pandemic, maintaining good hygiene and sanitation is the only method for individuals to stay safe. The need for calcium hypochlorite has risen sharply all around the world as a result. The use of calcium hypochlorite solutions to disinfect various public areas, including streets and hospital grounds, has caused the calcium hypochlorite market to expand quickly worldwide. On the international market, China is a significant producer of calcium hypochlorite.

Increasing Freshwater Demand to Propel Calcium Hypochlorite Market Growth

There is an increasing demand for freshwater due to substantial agricultural activities, a growing population, and other considerations. There is a great demand for drinking water all across the planet. Worldwide, over 2 billion people lack access to clean drinking water, and predictions indicate that by 2030, over half of humankind will experience severe water stress. Affordable drinking water is required now more than ever. Water is also a key component of agricultural productivity and substantially impacts food security. Before being used as fresh water for various purposes, wastewater is decontaminated using calcium hypochlorite. Before being used as fresh water for various purposes, wastewater is decontaminated using calcium hypochlorite. The high rate of urbanization and the expanding population are the main factors driving the demand for freshwater and, consequently, the global calcium hypochlorite market growth.

Increasing Prevalence of Water-borne Diseases Uplifts the Scope of Growth for Calcium Hypochlorite Market

Intestinal parasites, viruses, bacteria, and protozoa are only a few of the pathogenic microorganisms that can contaminate drinking water and cause sickness. For instance, 1.8 million people perish yearly from waterborne infections in underdeveloped nations. Over 90% of these fatalities involve youngsters under the age of five. Communities in poverty are more likely to contract waterborne infections. For instance, a community's access to clean water is influenced by its economic standing. Although more developed places are equally susceptible to waterborne disease outbreaks, less developed nations may be more at risk for such epidemics. A rising body of research indicates that climate change may impact the prevalence of waterborne illnesses, particularly diarrheal illnesses. Thus, the demand for calcium hypochlorite has increased to purify the water.

Perceived Environmental and Health Risks Continue to Challenge Calcium Hypochlorite Market Growth

The use of calcium hypochlorite does not offer advantages in disinfection by-products or kill rates for Giardia or Cryptosporidium due to the chemistry of liquid chlorine and chlorine gas being so comparable. If not stored in airtight containers, solid calcium hypochlorite (Ca(OCl)2) will react with moisture in the air to generate chlorine gas even though it is more stable and secure to handle than its liquid equivalent sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl). Therefore, Ca(OCl)2 containers must be empty or totally sealed. Similar to chlorine gas and NaOCl, Ca(OCl)2 wastewater systems often require dechlorination following disinfection to reduce chlorine discharges to receiving waterways. Additionally, exposure to calcium hypochlorite can result in burns to the skin, eyes, lungs, and other body parts. It can also result in medical issues like pneumonia, which is predicted to obstruct the growth of the worldwide calcium hypochlorite market. As a result, the government's stringent laws and regulations also limit the market for calcium hypochlorite. Furthermore, releasing toxic gases and pollutants harms the ecosystem, and any limitations imposed on this activity could prevent the expansion of calcium hypochlorite market.

Calcium Process Continues to Dominate Calcium Hypochlorite Market with an Excellent Bleaching Property

The calcium process category had the greatest revenue share in calcium hypochlorite market, and it is anticipated to continue to have a commanding position throughout the projected period. The primary usage of calcium hypochlorite, produced through the calcium process, is the bleaching of textiles like silk, cotton, and paper. In environmental applications with stringent water quality criteria, like the disinfection of homes, swimming pools, and drinking water, sodium process product is frequently employed. It is kept in woven bags with plastic bags inside of them and steel or plastic drums. Such packaging makes the goods leak-proof and less prone to degradation. The sodium process is utilized in applications for water treatment, sanitation, and aquaculture, just like the calcium process. The by-products of the calcium process are also extensively employed in water treatment applications for disease control and aquaculture development. Faster segment expansion is being brought on by increased usage of calcium hypochlorite, a byproduct of the calcium process, in water treatment applications.

Greater Emphasis of Water Treatment Plants on Contamination Prevention Favours Calcium Hypochlorite Market Growth

Water treatment facilities, wastewater treatment facilities, and water recovery offices use calcium hypochlorite to disinfect water in reservoirs, capacity tanks, wells, and other water sources. With its excellent government policies and the rehabilitation of wastewater treatment facilities, this segment has shown the fastest growth throughout the given period. In smaller systems where gas chlorination equipment can be used for disinfection, it is also used as a disinfectant in water treatment facilities. It aids in reducing the growth of algae inside water treatment facilities, as this can result in slime building up in filters, pumps, and pipes and releasing unpleasant odors.
