Development Status and Trend of Sludge Treatment and Disposal Industry Market
Current Situation and Development Trend of Sewage Treatment Market
Current Situation of Sewage Treatment Market
Water is a precious resource for human survival and development. The 21st century is called "the century of water". The per capita share of water resources in China is small and the spatial distribution is unbalanced. With the acceleration of urbanization and industrialization in China, the demand gap of water resources is also increasing. The seriousness and importance of the water problem has increasingly become the consensus of all sectors of society. The central and local government departments at all levels have put the water problem in an important position. In this context, the sewage treatment industry will become one of the fastest growing emerging industries in China in the future.
Due to the increasing importance of the state and governments at all levels to environmental protection, China's sewage treatment industry is growing rapidly, the total amount of sewage treatment is increasing year by year, and the urban sewage treatment rate is constantly increasing. However, China's sewage treatment industry is still in the initial stage of development. On the one hand, China's current sewage treatment capacity cannot keep up with the rapid expansion of water use, and the construction of supporting facilities such as pipe networks and sludge treatment is seriously lagging behind. On the other hand, China's sewage treatment rate compared with developed countries, there is still a significant gap, and the load rate of treatment facilities is low. Therefore, China should improve the policies and regulations of sewage treatment, establish a regulatory system, create a reasonable sewage treatment charging system, foster the development of domestic environmental protection industry, and promote the industrialization and marketization of sewage treatment industry. Sewage treatment industry is a sunrise industry, the development prospect is very broad. China will invest heavily to promote urban sewage treatment and utilization, China's sewage treatment industry thus ushered in a period of rapid development.
In 2010, China's sewage treatment development has made remarkable achievements, and the urban sewage treatment industry has entered the fast lane of development. In 2010, 1993 urban sewage treatment plants have been built in cities, counties and some key organizational towns, with a total treatment capacity of more than 0.1 billion cubic meters per day. There are 2360 urban sewage treatment projects under construction, with an additional sewage treatment capacity of about 64 million cubic meters per day, the total processing capacity of ongoing and existing projects is expected to reach 0.16 billion cubic meters. Since 2010, China's urban water investment and financing structure environment has undergone favorable changes. The restart of IPO has made a number of traditional water groups choose their own restructuring and listing to seek development. Domestic enterprises have begun to fully realize the huge potential of China's sewage treatment market and the characteristics of low risk and stability of the industry itself, actively participate in the competition and have made certain achievements, in particular, listed companies and private enterprises have continued to enter the construction and operation of waterworks and sewage treatment plants in recent years.
Development Trend of Sewage Treatment Market
In order to meet the major challenges of water resources and environment, China will continue to increase investment in urban infrastructure. With the increasing energy conservation and environmental protection requirements of the government, the continued opening of municipal utilities, the promotion of environmental industry policies and the improvement of investment and financing environment, China's sewage treatment and recycling industry will usher in historical development opportunities. It is predicted that the sales revenue of China's sewage treatment industry will be close to 30 billion yuan in 2013, and the sales scale of sewage treatment industry will reach 45 billion yuan by 2015.
Urban sewage is one of the main causes of regional water pollution in China. At present, there are more than 640 cities and more than 16000 towns in the country, with a population of about 0.27 billion people. In 2000, the sewage discharge was about 48 billion cubic meters per year. Most of them have not been treated, posing a serious threat to water resources. There are 0.9 billion people living in rural areas in our country. With the comprehensive construction of a well-off society, the construction of small towns will develop rapidly. It is predicted that by 2010, the number of cities nationwide will reach about 1200, the number of towns will reach 25000-30000, and the penetration rate of tap water in villages and towns nationwide will reach 65%. Obviously, the construction of centralized sewage treatment facilities in small towns in China will show a trend of rapid growth.
In terms of management system, the water industry management and legal guarantee system based on the combination of market mechanism and government macro-control is being established and gradually improved; the functions and roles of the government and enterprises are being repositioned, and the institutions are being reorganized; in recent years, a series of laws and policies have been promulgated, such as the administrative measures for urban water supply price reform and the notice on increasing the collection of sewage treatment fees.
In terms of operating mechanism, water supply and drainage have begun to integrate, and gradually establish investment, construction, and operation mechanisms that adapt to the socialist market economy.
In terms of investment, a multi-channel, multi-level and diversified fund-raising system is adopted. In addition to the central and local finance and sewage treatment fees, encourage the absorption of international financial institutions, foreign governments, international private, domestic private and other external funds, such as BOT and other ways to invest in the construction of urban sewage treatment plants.
The rapid development of sewage treatment promotes the formation of sludge treatment and disposal market.
According to general forecasts, China's population will peak between 2020 and 2025, and the amount of sewage will peak around 2020. By the end of 2009, the national urban sewage treatment capacity reached 28 billion cubic meters, wet sludge (water content of 80%) production exceeded 20 million tons. According to the survey results, 80% of the sludge produced by sewage treatment plants in China has not been properly treated, and the problems of pollution and re-pollution caused by random stacking of sludge have been highlighted, and have aroused social concern. The concern of the society has prompted the state to pay attention to the treatment and disposal of sludge, and the attention of the state has contributed to the formation of the sludge treatment and disposal market.
On February 18, 2009, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Environmental Protection, and the Ministry of Science and Technology jointly issued the "Technical Policy for Sludge Treatment and Disposal and Pollution Prevention and Control of Urban Sewage Treatment Plants (Trial)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Technical Policy"). The discussion on sludge treatment and disposal has reached a climax. The promulgation of this "Technical Policy" will effectively guarantee and promote the development of sludge treatment and disposal. At the beginning of 2010, Qiu Baoxing, deputy minister of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, stated that during the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" period, my country will mainly carry out sewage treatment plant work. During the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" period, the focus will be on supporting the pipe network. Sludge disposal and other aspects. Sludge disposal should be "done by all means" to encourage comprehensive land use after sludge is harmless. It can be seen that during the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, the sludge treatment and disposal market will be further developed, and it will also become the next investment hotspot after sewage treatment.
