NORWALK, CT, March 31, 2006 -- According to a new technical market research report released March 21 by BCC Research, "The Global Market for Hazardous Waste Remediation" (RE-152), the global market for hazardous waste remediation technologies was worth about $10.7 billion in 2005, and will rise to $11.4 billion in 2006 and $16.6 billion by 2011 at an average annual growth rate (AAGR) of 7.8%.
Hazardous waste containment technologies were the largest segment of the global hazardous waste remediation market in 2005, with over 25% of the market, followed by separation (19%), chemical treatment (18%), and recycling (15%). However, recycling is the fastest-growing market segment, with a projected AAGR of 19%, reaching almost $4.5 billion, approximately 27% of the market, by 2011. With almost thirty patents in as many years coupled with the fact that many remediation processes result in recyclable material, the substantial growth rate for reuse technology is highly probable.
Hazardous waste remediation is not only an ecological issue but an economic one as well. The design of equipment as well as the distribution of goods and services represent a multi-billion dollar industry, generating profit for investors, shareholders, and employees with personal interest.
