Desalination is the process that helps in eliminating excess minerals and salts from the water. It can also be defined as a chemical process for converting the seawater into filtered water, and the process has several applications across industrial, municipal and commercial areas. In this process, the feed water is treated, and two water streams are obtained, out of which one is concentrated and consists of mineral and salt concentrations and the other is the drinking freshwater which contains of less amount of mineral and salts. The desalination process involves two major technologies, which are membrane desalination technology and thermal desalination technology. The thermal technology is generally known as distillation and is one of the most ancient ways for generating the drinking water by distilling the seawater. This technology includes multi-stage flash distillation, multi effect distillation, and vapour compression evaporation. The membrane desalination technology moves salt or water by using a relatively permeable membrane for creating two zones of different concentrations for producing freshwater.

The major factors driving the growth of the MEA Water Desalination market include the rising scarcity of freshwater resources as a result of the growing demand for natural resources along with the negative effects of climate change. The decreasing cost of renewable energy sources and the rising usage of these sources for desalinating the water will further result in reduced social, operational, and environmental costs. The growing demand for water for agriculture and drinking, followed by the rising population, and depletion of groundwater and surface resources will encourage the adoption of water desalination process in the MEA region during the forecast period. The presence of abundant energy supply as a result of huge solar energy potentials and large presence of fossil fuels at a low cost is leading to an increase in the adoption of water desalination process in this region. Moreover, economic growth, high evaporation rate and shared water supplies across the borders is creating a significant impact on the water supplies, thereby propelling the water desalination market. The factors hampering the growth of water desalination market in the MEA region include the difficulty in disposing or recycling the brine for avoiding environmental impacts due to its negative effect on the ecosystems.

Based on the technology, the multi stage flash distillation is expected grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increasing adoption of this technology for the desalination process of water. The multi stage flash distillation process refers to the distillation process through multiple chambers, and each consecutive stage of the plants runs at increasingly low pressures. The property of this process is to be powered by by-product or waste heat and the co-generation of heat, power and desalinated water is considered to be a technical solution for MEA countries satisfying the demand for water and power in an energy-efficient and cost-effective manner.

Based on source, the seawater is anticipated to lead the market during the forecast period due to its extensive usage across numerous industries process and in domestic consumption. The desalination of seawater is mostly used for producing potable and freshwater for irrigation of crops and also for human consumption.

Based on the application, the Municipal segment is expected grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period. The municipal communities are heavily investing in desalination and are also focussing on reserving freshwater supplies for the population. As the water scarcity is increasing, the industries are coping up with this problem by applying technologies helping themselves to solve the water problems, and reserve fresh water.
