An Oil Water Separator (OWS) is a flow-through equipment, which is designed to separate oils from industrial wastewater and/or storm runoff systems. Oil water separators are installed in industries that release a huge amount of oil-containing wastewater. These systems are used in a wide range of industries to meet water requirements and remove harmful contaminants from the wastewater prior to its disposal.
Oil water separators are also utilized in the marine industry. The high demand for oil water separators from the marine industry is mainly driven by the stringent implementation of various environmental regulations regarding the disposal of bilge water into the sea. Thus, the need to ensure a hygienic environment for marine life has contributed to the growth of the global oil water separator from 2017 to 2022. The US, Canada, various European countries, and China have imposed strict penalties for defaulters, who fail to meet the environmental standards for disposal of wastewater into the sea, thereby accelerating the demand for oil water separators.
Based on application, the industrial segment of the global oil water separator market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2017 to 2022. This growth is mainly attributed to the increased demand for oil water separators from various industries, such as oil & gas, chemicals, food & beverages, manufacturing, and pharmaceuticals.
Based on type, the above ground OWS segment of the global oil water separator market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This growth is mainly driven by the increased deployment of above ground oil water separators by various industries, such as oil & gas and petrochemicals, due to their low installation and maintenance costs as well as ease of installation.
Among all regions, Europe is estimated to lead the global oil water separator market in 2017. However, the oil water separator market in the Asia Pacific region is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2017 and 2022. The expansion of manufacturing and power generation industries in Asia Pacific countries is one of the most significant factors propelling the demand for oil water separators in this region.
