The UV disinfection equipmentmarket is projected to grow from USD 5.0 billion in 2022 to USD 9.1 billion by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.5% from 2022 to 2027.

“Extensive use of UV disinfection equipment in healthcare facilities for disinfecting hospital environment”
Ultraviolet (UV) disinfection equipment are equipped with UV light to combat microbial contamination in water, air, and on surfaces. UV light is suitable for these equipment, as it is capable of inactivating microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and protozoa. When bacteria, viruses, and protozoa are exposed to germicidal wavelengths of UV light, the light penetrates the microorganisms and destroys their DNA. When the DNA of the microorganism is damaged, it stops functioning and reproducing; this helps to disinfect the area of contamination. Companies operating in this ecosystem offer a wide range of UV disinfection equipment designed for different applications and end users.

The hospital environment is a major source of disease transmission. Numerous patients, staff, and visitors in the hospitals can get infected due to various bacteria and viruses present in the hospitals and develop hospital-acquired infection (HAI).

“Growing adoption of UV disinfection equipment for water and wastewater treatment worldwide”
The growing adoption of UV disinfection equipment for water and wastewater treatment is creating lucrative opportunities for the manufacturers of UV disinfection equipment. Municipal organizations are the major users of UV disinfection equipment for water and wastewater treatment applications. There are several applications for which water treatment is carried out by municipal organizations. Some of them are drinking water treatment, metal removal, and wastewater treatment.

Among the methods of water disinfection, UV disinfection offers several advantages over ozone-based and chlorine-based disinfection. UV disinfection method is cheaper than ozone-based disinfection, and unlike chlorine-based disinfection, it does not require a chemical to disinfect water. It is more environmentally friendly and requires lesser contact time with water during the disinfection process. Owing to these benefits, the demand for UV disinfection equipment is increasing among municipal corporations worldwide. With the increasing population across the world, most of the municipal corporations are choosing UV disinfection equipment as their first choice to treat drinking water and wastewater and are increasingly focusing on the installation of UV disinfection equipment for the distribution of safe drinking water to people. The impact of this opportunity is currently moderate and is expected to be high in the coming years.
