Entry of Accurate and Efficient Laser-based Turbidimeters in Global Market
The level of cloudiness or haziness in water has been identified as one of the simplest indicators of water quality. For several decades, turbidity level is used to assess the relative clarity of water. Although other techniques are available to determine the contamination levels in water, turbidity analysis has gained significant acceptance, as it a simple indicator of the overall quality of water. Technological advancements are expected to drive the growth of the turbidimeter market, as novel laser-based procedures are slowly making their entry into the global marketspace. The onset of laser-based procedures has enabled a swift detection of filtration integrity with a high degree of accuracy.
Turbidity measurement is a critical procedure in several industries, including food & beverages, pharmaceuticals, chemicals & materials, and water treatment, among others. While governments across the world, especially of developing countries continue to lay down stringent regulations pertaining to water quality, the demand for turbidimeters is expected to witness substantial growth in the coming years, thus driving the turbidimeter market. Due to the demand from end-use industries coupled with rapid advancements in the turbidity analysis, the turbidimeter market is expected to reach a value of ~US$ 1.5 Bn by 2027 from ~US$ 960 Mn in 2019.

Turbidimeter Market: Overview
- According to Transparency Market Research’s latest report on the global turbidimeter market for the period of 2019–2027 (wherein 2019 to 2027 is the forecasted period and 2018 is the base year), increasing demand for wastewater treatment plants, owing to rising water purity concerns is anticipated to propel the global turbidimeter market
- In the report, revenue generated by the global turbidimeter market has been mentioned in terms of value (US$ Mn) and volume (Thousand Units) throughout the forecast period
Growth in Number of Wastewater Treatment Plants: A Key Driver for Turbidimeter Market
- Increasing industrialization has been one of the major factors leading to wastewater generation, which has resulted in the growth of turbidimeters. In several developing and developed countries, most of the wastewater is released directly into the environment without its adequate treatment. However, with increasing regulations pertaining to wastewater treatment, countries have been adopting the wastewater treatment method in order to save fresh water and decrease the quantity of wastewater.
- Several countries have started to build effluent treatment plants in manufacturing and processing sites to release clean water due to the government regulations. Increase in the number of wastewater treatment plants will eventually lead to the growth of the turbidimeter market.
Growth in e-Commerce Platforms to Drive Turbidimeter Market
- Growing use of e-Commerce platforms for sale and purchase of turbidimeters is a key factor driving the turbidimeter market. Of late, several manufacturers and resellers are moving toward online platforms, as they help in increasing the geographical presence of the companies. Online platforms provide a wide range of products at an affordable price, which makes it a convenient option for end consumers.
- The turbidimeter market is anticipated to have strong growth during the forecasted period with rising number of online platforms.
Lack of Implementation of Regulations: A Key Restraining Factor of Turbidimeter Market
- Absence of effluent treatment plants (ETP) in several high growth regions is a major factor restraining the growth of the turbidimeter market. End-of-pipe discharges from large scale processing (leather, textile, etc.) and food industries are generally easy to identify, and can be regulated, controlled, and treated. However, wastewater from concentrations of small enterprises are discharged wherever they can and not necessarily into any identifiable sewers. Several are highly polluting, containing acids, and toxic metals. This waste damages the sensitive ecosystem and established contact with humans and animals with consequent damage to health.
- Lack of implementation of regulations pertaining to treatment of wastewater restrains the demand for turbidimeters.
Turbidimeters on Rent: Another Restraining Factor of Turbidimeter Market
- Demand for turbidimeters has increased due to the increasing number of processing industries and manufacturing plants.
