Rising Population Leading to Growth in Wastewater and Further Growth for Biosolids in Middle East

The Middle East Biosolids market is anticipated to witness high growth on account of burgeoning use of biosolids as a substitute for hazardous chemical fertilizers and for the production of energy as biosolids act as a vital fuel for the generation of heat. Additional factors pushing the growth of biosolids in Middle East are extensive growth in the regional population due to which wastewater continues to accelerate steadily and technological advancement related to biosolids. In addition to these, the rising need for alternative means of energy generation to fulfil with environment norms is projected to set the gear for the biosolids market during 2020-25.  

According to MarkNtel Advisors’ research report titled “Middle East Biosolids Market Analysis, 2020”, the Middle East Biosolids market is anticipated to grow at a substantial CAGR during 2020-25. Class A and Class B acquired the majority market share in the Middle East Biosolids in 2019. Vector Attraction Reduction (VAR) is a form of processing which makes the biosolids less attractive to vectors such as flies, mosquitoes, rodents, and birds which have the potential for transmitting diseases to human beings. Class A biosolids require to reduce pathogens and vector attraction reduction (VAR) to below detectable levels stated by the US EPA.

Moreover, Class A EQ fulfil all VAR prerequisite of Class A. These are legally approved on farms as fertilizers and are available as compost or fertilizer for homes. However, Class B biocides VAR provisions consist of a higher level of pathogens as compared to Class A biocides. Class B biosolids can be used in land application, crop harvesting, and public access only after the EPA permit.
