Major Driver Impacting Market Growth
The increase in requirements for wastewater treatment across the globe is expected to propel the growth of the chitosan market. Wastewater treatment has been defined as the process of removing impurities from wastewater before it reaches natural bodies or aquifers such as oceans, lakes, and rivers. Chitosan is widely used for wastewater treatment as it helps in heavy metal or metalloid adsorption, the removal of dyes from industrial wastewater, and the removal of other organic pollutants such as organic oxidants, oil impurities, and organochloride pesticides. For instance, in 2021, according to a study conducted by the Utrecht University, a Netherlands-based public research university, and the United Nations University, a Japan-based research and study university, the wastewater produced globally each year stands at 359 billion cubic meters, of which approximately 48 percent of that water is released untreated into the environment. Therefore, the growth in requirements for wastewater treatment across the globe is driving the chitosan market growth.
