The U.S. Water and Wastewater Treatment Technologies Market is expected to reach a value of $24.63 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 5% during the forecast period 2022–2029. The growth of U.S. water and wastewater treatment technologies market is mainly attributed to stringent regulations on the safe and appropriate use of onsite wastewater treatment systems (OWTS), growing advancements in wastewater treatment technology, and the increasing prevalence of waterborne diseases. The growing demand for energy-efficient and advanced water treatment technologies is expected to provide significant growth opportunities for water and wastewater treatment system providers in the coming years. However, the high installation, maintenance, and operational costs are expected to hinder the growth of this market to some degree. The aging of existing water infrastructure is also one of the major challenges for the growth of the U.S. water and wastewater treatment market.
