Biosolids are organic matter recycled from wastewater sludge and utilized as a soil conditioner and fertilizer to improve and maintain soil productivity and stimulate plant growth. They comprise macronutrients, including nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and sulfur, and micronutrients, such as copper, zinc, calcium, magnesium, iron, boron, molybdenum, and manganese.
Declining arable land, increasing food security concerns, and rising awareness about the harmful effects of chemical-based fertilizers are currently among the major factors positively influencing the demand for biosolids around the world. The growing health consciousness among the masses is driving the demand for organic food products. This, in turn, is also favoring the market growth. In addition, there is an increase in the adoption of organic farming practices that involve the chemical-free production of crops and seeds, along with the rising awareness about the benefits of using biosolids, which is contributing to the market growth. Apart from this, the growing demand for water treatment facilities on account of the increasing industrial waste polluting fresh water and the escalating need for clean drinking water is creating a positive outlook for the market. Furthermore, the expanding number of parks, gardens, and golf courses in public and commercial areas is providing a thrust to the market growth. Additionally, the emerging trend of self-gardening on account of improving lifestyles and the rising need for maintaining the aesthetics of outdoor spaces is offering lucrative growth opportunities to leading players operating in the industry. Besides this, leading companies are considerably financing research and development (R&D) projects to innovate existing solutions, which is expected to strengthen the growth of the market in the coming years.
