Adsorbent materials possess the capability to absorb another substance. Adsorbents are extensively used to treat and remove impurities from drinking water, and they help in enhancing the overall water quality. The stringent regulations pertaining to water quality backed by initiatives taken by government to invest in water treatment industries promote the demand for drinking water adsorbents. Further, rapid urbanization coupled with economic growth and rising demand for bio-adsorbents are driving the growth of the drinking water adsorbents market
In 2019, North America contributed to the largest share in the global drinking water adsorbents market. The market growth in this region is primarily attributed to the presence of strong industrial base along with prominent manufactures significantly contributing to market growth, rapid urbanization, and surge in demand for fresh and portable water. The easy accessibility and availability of raw materials are yet another factors that bolster the market growth in the region.
The COVID-19 outbreak pandemic is adversely affecting economies and industries in various countries due to government-imposed lockdowns and travel bans, and business shutdowns. The chemical & materials is one of the major industries suffering serious disruptions such as supply chain breaks, technology events cancellations, and office shutdowns. The shutdown of various plants and factories in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and the Middle East and Africa has restricted the global supply chain and negatively impacted the manufacturing activities, delivery schedules, and product sales. Furthermore, various companies have already predicted possible delays in product deliveries and slump in future sales of their products. The travel bans imposed by countries in Europe, Asia, and North America are hindering the business collaborations and partnerships opportunities. All these factors are hampering activities in the chemical & materials industry, which are restraining the growth of various markets related to this industry.

Activated carbon can remove natural organic matter (NOM) from drinking water and can be used as an integral component for water filtration system. Activated carbon has swept across the industrial world and has become an essential component to purify water. Activated carbon is used by both large- and small-scale enterprises. It helps in eliminating impurities from large-scale, community-wide water supplies as well as residential products on a smaller scale. Moreover, due to its exceptionally rare physical properties such as excellent pore properties including high surface area and wide pore size distribution, activated carbon is preferably be used as drinking water adsorbents. Further, it can eliminate dissolved pollutants and harmful organisms. In addition, with the inclusion of carbon and hydrogen in their composition, activated carbon acts as an effective product for removing organic pollutants. Increasing demand for activated carbon for the removal of turbidity and naturally occurring organic matter is expected to propel the growth of the drinking water adsorbents market during the forecast period.
The global drinking water adsorbents market, by product, is segmented into zeolite, clay, activated alumina, activated carbon, manganese oxide, cellulose, and others. The activated carbon segment led the drinking water adsorbents market with the largest share in 2019. Activated carbon is also known as activated coal, activated charcoal, or active carbon, and it is an extremely effective adsorbent. It can be used to purify, dechlorinate, deodorize, and decolorize both liquid and vapor applications due to its large surface area, pore structure (micro, meso, and macro), and a high degree of surface reactivity. The raw material used for activated carbons is a coconut shell, coal, and wood. Further, activated carbons are cost-effective adsorbents for a variety of industries, such as water purification, food-grade products, cosmetology, automotive applications, industrial gas purification, petroleum, and others. Activated carbon filtration is a popular technology that works by adsorbing pollutants onto the surface of a filter. This method is effective for eliminating organics such as unwanted tastes and odors, and micropollutants; chlorine; fluorine; or radon from drinking water or wastewater. Due to the inclusion of carbon and hydrogen in their composition, activated carbon is the most effective commodity for the removal of organic pollutants, which propels its demand in the market.
