ESG and Water: Decentralized Water Treatment Market Is Gaining Momentum 2025-2032 | Most Leading Companies - Fluence Corporation, Veolia Environnement S.A., Suez S.A., Xylem Inc., Ecolab Inc., A.O

Global decentralized water treatment market size reached US$ 23.08 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach US$ 67.33 billion by 2032, growing with a CAGR of 14.32% during the forecast period 2025-2032.

Decentralized water treatment refers to systems that treat water and/or wastewater at or near the point of use rather than relying entirely on large, centralized treatment plants. These systems can include technologies like membrane filtration, UV disinfection, biological treatment, greywater recycling, and point-of-use or point-of-entry units. They are often modular, scalable, and designed for flexibility-suited to remote, rural, peri-urban, or emergency applications. The goal is to provide safe, clean water (or safely reuse water) with reduced dependence on long distribution networks and large infrastructure.

Recent Developments:

United States: Recent Industry Developments

✅ In August 2025, Aquatech International launched its modular decentralized water treatment units in Texas. These units provide 5 MLD capacity for industrial reuse, helping reduce freshwater dependency in drought-prone regions. The project highlights scalable water recycling for manufacturing clusters.

✅ In July 2025, Ecolab invested $120 million to expand its water treatment R&D center in Minnesota. The facility focuses on AI-driven monitoring and decentralized treatment innovations. This expansion aims to accelerate adoption of smart water management in U.S. industries.

✅ In May 2025, Xylem Inc. partnered with local utilities in California to deploy decentralized wastewater reuse systems. The installations will recycle over 10 million gallons annually for irrigation and non-potable applications. It strengthens California's resilience to ongoing water scarcity.

Japan: Recent Industry Developments

✅ In August 2025, Kurita Water Industries introduced a new decentralized water treatment solution using membrane bioreactors in Tokyo. The system targets high-rise buildings and commercial complexes. It enables on-site water reuse, reducing municipal supply pressure.

✅ In June 2025, Toray Industries announced investment in advanced RO membranes for decentralized desalination plants. The new membranes enhance energy efficiency by 20%. Pilot plants are being deployed across coastal regions of Japan to secure alternative water resources.

✅ In May 2025, Hitachi launched a digital water treatment platform integrating IoT and predictive analytics for decentralized facilities. The platform enables real-time monitoring of water quality and equipment health. Early deployments are underway in urban smart-city projects.

☛ Decentralized Water Treatment Market Dynamics and Drivers

Multiple forces are driving growth in the decentralized water treatment market. First, water scarcity, spurred by population growth, climate change, and degradation of centralized water sources, is pushing demand for systems that can operate locally and reduce dependence on large-scale water supply networks. As centralized systems face limitations (capacity, cost, time), decentralized units provide quicker, more flexible deployment.

Second, urbanization and infrastructure gaps are major factors. As more people move to cities and peri-urban areas (often without robust water treatment infrastructure), decentralized solutions fill in the gaps, reduce transmission losses, and handle wastewater locally. Aging infrastructure in established cities also pushes for distributed upgrades rather than massive overhauls of central plants.

Third, technological innovation is enhancing efficiency and lowering costs: IoT integration, AI-enabled monitoring, modular and plug-and-play units, renewable energy powered systems (solar etc.), and advanced membranes or disinfection methods are improving performance and reducing operating costs. These make decentralized systems more viable across varied geographies.

Fourth, policy, regulation, and funding are increasingly favoring decentralized models. Governments and municipalities are introducing incentives, grants, or funds (e.g. implementation funds), and are encouraging or mandating on-site water reuse, greywater recycling, and upgrades in water quality standards. Public-private partnerships are becoming more common for financing and operating DWT systems.

☛ Decentralized Water Treatment Industry News:

➣ WOTA in Japan launched its household decentralized water circulation system ("WOTA Unit") in 2025, capable of purifying up to 97% of household wastewater (from kitchens, bathrooms, laundry etc.) into reusable water, meeting all 51 WHO parameters for drinking water.

➣ There has been roughly a 30% increase in sales of mobile and modular decentralized water treatment units in 2025 compared to 2024, especially for applications in emergency response, mining, oil & gas sectors.
