Report Highlights
-
In 2005, the total value of the U.S. water recycling and reuse industry was over $2.1 billion. BCC predicts that total market revenue will grow at an average annual rate of just over 8.8% through 2010, yielding total revenue in 2010 of just under $3.3 billion.
-
Landscape and agricultural irrigation make up the largest shares of total water reuse. These applications will continue to grow through 2010 (at 12.4% and 10.3%, respectively), though the industrial market will grow the most quickly, at 14.2%.
-
The overall market revenue growth rate of 8.8% reflects the fact that significant innovation is still occurring, making technologies more accessible to a greater number of potential buyers, as well as the fact that the underlying market - the wastewater recycling and reuse market - is heading into a replacement phase.
