World Water and Wastewater Treatment Chemicals Business to exceed $30 billion
by 2019
Revenues for water and wastewater treatment chemicals are projected to increase
to over $30 billion by 2019. This is the latest forecast in N026 Water and
Wastewater Treatment Chemicals: World Market. (www.mcilvainecompany.com)

Municipal water treatment plants will be the largest market. The world’s
naturally purified drinking water sources are shrinking while demand is
increasing. Countries around the world are turning to contaminated sources. This
requires substantial investments in water treatment chemicals.
Municipal wastewater plants will be the second largest market. Requirements
range from disinfectants to polymers to separate sludge. Many countries are
installing secondary wastewater treatment plants. By 2019 world secondary
wastewater treatment capacity is expected to exceed 170,000 million gallons per
day.
The third largest market is power. Power plant cooling requires chemicals to
prevent scaling of tower internals. Boiler feedwater must be ultrapure. The
continuing expansion of coal-fired power generation in Asia will boost this
segment of the market. Zero liquid discharge requirements in Europe and the U.S.
will also provide a stimulus.

AMERICAS
United States
Real gross domestic product (GDP) edged down 0.2% at an annual rate in the first
quarter of 2015, according to the third estimate from the Bureau of Economic
Analysis. This report reflects an upward revision of 0.5 percentage point to
overall GDP growth. The slower first quarter follows a solid increase of 3.6% at
an annual rate during the second half of 2014. Over the past four quarters, GDP
rose 2.9%. First-quarter growth was likely affected by a number of transitory
factors including unusually severe weather, the West Coast ports dispute, and
various measurement issues. A decline in net exports was another important
contributor to weak GDP growth. Indeed, net exports subtracted nearly 2 full
percentage points from quarterly GDP growth. Furthermore, structures investment
subtracted about 0.6 percentage point from GDP, reflecting reduced oil drilling
in the wake of last year’s decline in oil prices. Despite the decrease in GDP,
real gross domestic income—an alternate measure of economic output—increased
1.9% at an annual rate in the first quarter.
The upward revision to first-quarter GDP was spread across many components of
economic output. Personal consumption expenditures contributed 0.2 percentage
point to the upward revision with improvements in estimates of both goods and
services consumption. Private investment contributed another 0.3 percentage
point with a mix of small upward revisions to structures investment,
intellectual property investment, inventories, and residential investment. State
and local government investment contributed the remaining 0.1 percentage point
to the upward revision. Exports and imports saw offsetting revisions, leaving
net exports essentially unrevised on balance. (The remaining text is not
included in this sample.)
ASIA
Hong Kong
The University of Hong Kong has downgraded its estimate for the city's economic
growth to 2% in the second quarter of this year from 2.4% previously because of
poor external demand and economic turmoil overseas.
The Apec studies program of the Hong Kong Institute of Economics and Business
Strategy at the university also blamed the city's possible slower growth on the
long-lasting effects of a stronger US dollar, to which the Hong Kong dollar is
pegged.
With the uncertainty of mainland China's slowdown, the delayed resolution of
Greece's debt crisis and the uncertain timing of a much talked about rise in
interest rates in the United States, Hong Kong's economy is expected to grow
moderately this year, the university said.
It predicted economic growth would taper off further to 1.7% in the three months
to September 30, from the same period last year.
For the full year, it expected the city's real gross domestic product to grow
2%- below the 2.5% for last year but within the government's prediction of a 1
to 3% rise. (The remaining text is not included in this sample.)
EUROPE / AFRICA / MIDDLE EAST
United Kingdom
The Office of Budget Responsibility (OBR) has revised downwards its forecast of
UK gross domestic product (GDP) growth in 2015 to 2.4%.
This is slightly lower than the OBR's previous forecast, made in March, of 2.5%
GDP growth in 2015. Chancellor George Osborne blamed lower forecasts on slower
global growth, in his Budget statement.
The OBR's forecast for 2016 was unchanged at 2.3%.
'The UK is growing faster than any other advanced economy,' he said, in the
first wholly Conservative Budget since 1996.
He also said that current budget deficit as a percentage of GDP is expected to
be reduced to 3.7% this year and 2.2% in 2016/17. It was 10.2% of national
income in 2010.
Britain has turned the corner and left the age of irresponsibility behind,' he
said.
He predicted that a current budget deficit surplus would be reached by 2019/20.
