Market study municipal waste water treatment plants in Europe 2006 / 2007
The market for municipal waste water treatment plants is a long-term growth market. The number of treatment plants, as well as the level of sophistication of their technical equipment, has increased continually since the 1950's.
Currently, too, wastewater treatment in Europe is being expanded and upgraded in terms of both quality and quantity. The European Union's policies and financing, and especially its Directive on Urban Waste Water Treatment and the Water Framework Directive, have played a key role in putting momentum into the market.
In light of these developments, ecoprog GmbH, together with the Fraunhofer Institute for Environmental, Safety and Energy Technology UMSICHT, has studied the market for urban waste water treatment plants in Europe in detail. In the most important markets, such as France, the UK, Italy, Spain, Poland and Romania, subcontractors in these countries have compiled a substantial amount of information about the number and type of plants.
Based on our knowledge of the market and detailed surveys, we are able to offer suppliers, the components industry, operators, organisations, promoters of trade and industry, research institutes and consultants an up to date overview of trends, estimates, numbers and facts about the European market for urban waste water treatment plants.
The market study for waste water treatment plants 2006 – 2007 contains the following:
· an overview of all the significant political, economic, operational and technical trends in urban waste water treatment that influence the supplier market,
· specific, country-specific estimates of market volumes up to and including 2010, based on a transparent and clear methodology,
· detailed information about 2,400 waste water treatment plants with a capacity of at least 50,000 population equivalents. This covers approximately 99% of all plants of this size in Europe, which provide approximately two thirds of the capacity in Europe.
· For about 2,150 of these plants, an accurate quantitative analysis of the plant's capacity, as well as a description of its waste water treatment plants performance, at least according to the basic type of treatment.
· For about 2,000 of these plants, details of the addresses and contact details for the waste water treatment plant and/or the plant operator.
The study will be available in English and German language from June 2006 for € 2,500 incl. VAT.

Changes to legislation in 1994 began a far-reaching reform of water management in Italy that is ongoing. Prior to the reform, there were more than 10,000 water companies in Italy, most of them urban. In many cases, responsibility for different tasks, such as supply, disposal and sewage systems, was split between different organisations.
Aligned with the 103 provinces of Italy, approximately 90 water administration districts (Ambiti Territoriali Ottimali, ATO) were created, each responsible for its own administration. The ATOs outsource water management by allocating service contracts. Care is taken to make the contracts wide-ranging, to implement the idea of Servizio Idrico Integrato, or Integrated Water Services. Both the supply and the disposal of water should be carried out by the same organisation. An ATO can contract one company to take care of all water services in its area, such as in Trieste, or contract different suppliers to undertake different parts of the process.
The amount of work generated by these reforms is immense. Tuscany became the first region to implement the statutory regulations, but not until 2002. Although most of the country is now functioning according to the principles described above, some of the provinces, particularly in southern Italy, have still not been able to establish a functional ATO.
A great many urban water micro enterprises were merged as a result of the reforms. Waste water treatment plants in Italy now are owned by about 200 enterprises. Most of them are still owned by local

Currently, projects with a capacity of approximately 1.8 Mio. population equivalents are under construction, the largest in Shoumen and Dulovo. A further 19 plants are at various stages of planning, the largest in Stara Zagora, Dimitrovgrad and Pazardjik.
It is not entirely certain how quickly they will be implemented and how fast the market will grow. Past experience has shown that many projects encounter delays. The reasons for this are the high planning and technical requirements of the EU, e.g. in regard to feasibility and environmental friendliness, but also in regard to the requirements for the administrative offices that take on the financial management of the projects. Unless these criteria are observed, no financial assistance is provided.

Official sources in Bulgaria envisage realistic growth of the investment in construction and modernisation of waste water treatment plants and sewage systems from 150 million Euros in 2006 to approximately 250 million euros in 2010. About a third of this is realistic as an investment in waste water treatment plants.
In our market forecast, we assume a volume of new build of approximately 1.5 million population equivalents and a rate of modernisation of 40% for the 2006 - 2010 period.

There are currently more than 100 industrial wastewater plants in Europe that are equipped with this technology. Based on their experiences and further developments, it is expected that the effects on urban waste water treatment of applying membrane processes will be very positive. At the moment, however, there are many aspects of this technology that require further development and research. The problems yet to be solved are in the area of long-term stability, membrane fouling and membrane cleaning, not to mention production costs. It is already clear that the many alternatives in which membrane processes can be applied with, will reduce the cost of this technology over the medium term for both scattered settlements and mega cities and that there will be further expansion of membrane technology, therefore, in urban waste water waste water treatment plants.
