Water treatment biocides are chemical agents used in
the water treatment processes. They are synthesized to eliminate
micro-organisms of all life stages and sizes. They are formulated to control
the microbial growth in potable water, process water, open cooling systems,
down water services etc. Water treatment biocides are typically manufactured in
liquid and powder forms as well as in concentrates and ready-to-use
formulations. The most commonly employed biocides in the water treatment
process include stablized chlorine bromide solutions, gluteraldehyde,
isothiazolin, dbnpa, polymeric quaternary amine, terbuthylazine, and carbmate.

The global water treatment
biocides market is growing at a significant pace owing to increasing demand
from municipal water treatment plants. Rapid urbanization, migration of people
from villages and small town to metropolitan cities, and surge in population in
tier 1 and tier 2 cities has created a need for effective water treatment
processing plants. As cities and towns grow larger the need for efficient water
treatment biocides is expected to considerably grow. The growing expenditure on
water treatment facilities by government and private institutions is expected
to propel the market for water treatment chemicals such as water treatment
biocides. The non-oxidizing biocides are expected to account for a significant
share of the water treatment biocides market owing to its increasing uses in
the oil and gas and power plants. Clean water is also required in various
processes in food and beverge processing plants, pharmaceutical plants,
agriculture, paper and pulp industries, and many other industries. These industries
are anticipated to be significant consumers of water treatment biocides in the
years to come.
