Global Reverse Osmosis Desalination Equipment Market Growth (Status and Outlook) 2025-2031

The global Reverse Osmosis Desalination Equipment market size is predicted to grow from US$ 24570 million in 2025 to US$ 36150 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% from 2025 to 2031.

Reverse osmosis desalination equipment desalinates seawater using the principle of reverse osmosis technology. Reverse osmosis desalination equipment usually consists of a pretreatment system, a reverse osmosis membrane system, a post-treatment system, and an energy recovery device.

The use of reverse osmosis technology produces 6.5 times less carbon dioxide emissions than traditional desalination technology. With the development of technology and the optimization of efficiency and performance of desalination plants, more and more people have access to fresh water. With product advantages, the market has a good development prospect. Market dynamics, market development characteristics, market obstacles and challenges, market drivers, competitive landscape, regional characteristics, etc. are all points worthy of attention.

Market dynamics:

In 2022, Doosan Heavy Industries and Construction Group recently signed a memorandum of understanding on a desalination project with Egypt, marking the company's official entry into the Egyptian desalination market. Egypt is planning to sign new desalination project orders to achieve a daily water production of 2.8 million tons by 2025 and a daily water supply of 6.4 million tons through desalination plants by 2050.

In the Saudi Vision 2030 plan, the Saudi Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture (MEWA) seeks to achieve the modernization and sustainable development of the country and has formulated a National Water Resources Strategy (NWS 2030) to address the main challenges of the industry through policy and institutional reform initiatives. In this process, the National Water Company (NWC) was authorized to implement a comprehensive plan to reorganize the national water supply system in six regional distribution entities (clusters). There are dedicated private companies responsible for the development of this process.

Regional characteristics:

Globally, there are currently about 18,000 commercial desalination plants in operation, with a total installed production capacity of 2.87 billion gallons per day (MGD), and the desalinated usable water is delivered to 174 countries around the world.

Countries such as Saudi Arabia in the Middle East are seen as the center of this growth. The region accounts for more than 60% of desalination capacity, and Saudi Arabia, the largest country, produces more desalinated water than any other country.

Market development prospects:

As the global water shortage problem becomes increasingly serious, desalination has received widespread attention as one of the effective ways to solve water shortages. In particular, the continuous development and improvement of reverse osmosis technology has made reverse osmosis desalination equipment more and more widely used in the market. According to relevant data, by the end of 2023, the scale of seawater desalination projects using reverse osmosis technology will account for about two-thirds, and the number will account for as high as 88%, showing the dominant position of reverse osmosis technology in the seawater desalination industry. It is expected that in the next few years, with the continuous advancement of technology and further reduction of costs, the market size of reverse osmosis seawater desalination equipment will continue to grow.
