According to a new market report published by
Transparency Market Research “UV Disinfection Equipment Market - Global
Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019,"
the global UV disinfection equipment market was valued at USD 993.4 million in
2012 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 14.1% from 2013 to 2019, to reach an
estimated value of USD 2.5 billion in 2019.

The UV disinfection market is booming due to the
increasing safety concerns of the users which is inducing them to switch from
the customary chlorine based disinfection to UV based disinfection. Several other
benefits associated with the UV disinfection including its residue-less
functioning, low installation and operation cost and ease of maintenance makes
it the most sought after techniques for disinfection.
Government initiatives for providing safe drinking
water to citizens are further increasing the scope of UV disinfection
equipment. The fast growth of healthcare and chemical industries is offering
opportunities for the air and surface segments of the UV disinfection equipment
market.
In many places, the combination of ozone and UV
disinfection is being used to create multiple barriers for Cryptosporidium (a
disease causing gastrointestinal illness and diarrhea) and Giardia (the
protozoan parasites causing Giardiasis). Where the average capital cost of Cryptosporidium
inactivation by ozone is USD 8.1 million, it is USD 4.6 million for the
combination of ozone and UV. Similarly, the annual operation and maintenance
cost for water disinfection set-up of ozone is USD 460,000, while the same is
USD 60,000 in case of disinfection set-up comprising a combination of ozone and
UV.
While chlorine takes around 15-20 minutes of
treatment time in the contact tank, UV treatment takes only 6-10 seconds. Being
cost effective, UV treatment technique is gaining the market share.
One of the rules of EPA (Environmental Protection
Agency) in relation to drinking water treatment is Long Term 2 (LT2) Surface
Water Treatment Rule under which all public water systems in the U.S. that use
surface water or ground water under the direct influence of surface water, are
required to reduce source water Cryptosporidium levels by 2-logs (99%).
Cryptosporidium microorganisms are resistant to chlorine, which is giving an
opportunity for microfiltration, ozonation and UV disinfection.
Similar regulations were put into effect in the
U.K. named Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations introduced by the Drinking
Water Inspectorate (DWI) in 2000 and further amended in 2007. Also, the U.K.
Water Industry Research (UKWIR) is currently working on a project to determine
the efficacy of UV disinfection and based on the observations will make
recommendations on the operational guidelines for UV disinfection in the U.K.
In China, Office of the National Health and Family
Planning Commission (NHFPC) released a draft in November 2013 dictating the use
of newer technology in treatment of drinking water products by companies in
this domain.

Health problems due to unavailability of safe
drinking water have been one of the major reasons for the outbreak of diseases
in developing countries. Contaminated water is home to microorganisms which
cause several diseases including diarrhea, cholera, and hepatitis. Every year
these diseases lead to 5 million deaths globally. This has increased concerns
of the governments to improve the safety level of water. Several developing countries
have been using chlorination for the disinfection of public water for a long
time. However, advent of new diseases such as Cryptosporidium and Legionella
pnemophilla, which are resistant to chlorine, has been compelling governments
in countries such as China and South Africa to use newer technologies to tackle
the health hazards caused by contaminated or unsafe water.
UV Light Emitting Diode (LED) is a new technology
launched in 2012 which is picking up in the market at a fast pace due to its
energy efficiency and compact size. Where the average annual energy consumption
of a traditional UV lamp is around USD 4,562 per annum, the same for a UV LED
based disinfection system costs around USD 279 per annum.
Geographically, North America was the market leader
in 2012 followed by Asia Pacific and Europe. Among the regions, the North
American market is expected to hold its leadership with the increased market
share during 2013-2019 which can be attributed to the advanced water treatment
technologies in the United States and the increasing healthcare industry.
