South African Water and Wastewater Equipment Market Poised for Strong Growth as a Result of Socio-Economic, Legislative and Economic Changes.DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c46839) has announced the addition of Frost & Sullivan's new report: South African Water and Wastewater Treatment Equipment Markets to their offering. This Frost & Sullivan research service titled South African Water and Wastewater Treatment Equipment Market provides a detailed analysis of the current municipal and industrial water treatment equipment markets. This study offers a description of the various challenges faced by equipment suppliers, end-users and regulatory bodies. It also provides strategic recommendations to empower water users and equipment suppliers in their future planning. In this research, expert analysts thoroughly examine the following markets: municipal water and wastewater treatment equipment, industrial water and wastewater treatment equipment.

The lack of investment in the past has led to increased investments to improve access to water. These investments focused on increased access to water and the treatment of sanitation sanitation: see plumbing; sanitary science. are stimulating the development of primary and secondary water treatment facilities. Despite the continued lack of investment, some progress has been made in reducing water dependence. Yet another factor driving market growth is the increased level of legislative enforcement on municipalities and industries. Besides, with South Africa South Africa, Afrikaans Suid-Afrika, officially Republic of South Africa, republic (2005 est. pop. 44,344,000), 471,442 sq mi (1,221,037 sq km), S Africa. being a water-scarce country and the demand for clean water outstretching its supply, water has become an even more valued commodity. This has resulted in enhanced focus on water and wastewater treatment options. "Increased legislative enforcement in the water and waste water sector as prescribed by the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry (DWAF DWAF Department of Water Affairs and Forestry ) is fuelling demand for technology solutions that can resolve the challenges faced by water users in South Africa," notes the analyst of this research service. "While DWAF continues to face severe funding challenges, it is currently increasing its monitoring capacity and the legislative framework, which will enable it to pursue offenders. Accordingly, demand for water treatment solutions is experiencing a boost." The advances in membrane separation technology witnessed worldwide are also influencing the demand for this technology group. Membrane technologies are now being used in the industrial and municipal sectors in reverse osmosis reverse osmosis n.

(MBR (Master Boot Record) See boot sector. ) technologies and ultra filtration (UF). Skilled Staff Vital for Effective Implementation of Water and Wastewater Treatment Projects The lack of adequate finance is the most significant challenge for municipal users. Meanwhile, industrial users are struggling to obtain solutions that meet their needs. "Rural municipalities A rural municipality, often abbreviated RM, is a form of municipality in the Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan, perhaps best comparable to counties or townships in the western United States. suffer the most from financial mismanagement Financial mismanagement is management that, deliberately or not, is handled in a way that can be characterised as "wrong, bad, careless, inefficient or incompetent" and that will reflect negatively upon the financial standing of a business or individual. and inadequate funding," remarks the analyst. "Rural settlements also have poor access to water resources. Despite the Government's efforts to address the imbalance between regions, inequalities in access still remain." In addition, the inadequate legislative enforcement is further retarding the demand of water treatment equipment and several offenders continue to disregard the legal framework. Yet another crucial issue restraining market growth is the serious lack of skilled employees. As skilled force is hard to find in the municipal and industrial sectors, installed water treatment plants cannot be operated to specifications and this is affecting the implementation of water and wastewater treatment projects. Equipment suppliers are increasingly forming partnerships with municipal and industrial end-users in an attempt to operate efficient water treatment works. Such alliances are stimulating increased investments in these sectors. Equipment sales can be increased by developing solutions that comply with legal guidelines and increasing efficiency through water recycling and effective use of grey water.

Moreover, the sponsorship of previously disadvantaged students will assist in solving the issue of shortage of skills.
