Global Algaecides Market: Overview

Algaecides are the biocides, which are used to kill and prevent the growth of algae. Barley straw covered in mesh bags are allowed to float in water gardens or fish ponds to control the growth of the algae, without harming pond plants and animals. Algaecide is gaining boom in the global market from last few decades owing to its algal control property. Algae blooms in the marine coastlines, freshwater lakes, or estuaries. Algae produce toxins as it blooms in water, which is considered dangerous for freshwater and marine environments, and for humans.

Global Algaecides Market: Growth Factors

The emergence of preventive and control measures to control the growth of the algae is expected to drive the global algaecides market growth. Algaecides market is gaining importance owing to increasing need to prevent environment degradation and extensive pollution caused due to rising industrialization activities; this in turn is anticipated to foster the global algaecides market growth in the coming years. However, highly efficient and innovative algaecide formulations may open up new growth opportunities in the global market.

Global Algaecides Market: Segmentation

The application segment of the global algaecides market is segmented as sports & recreational centers, surface water treatment, aquaculture, agriculture, and others.

The global market is further divided based on the mode of action as non-selective and selective. Of these, non-selective algaecides segment accounted for the largest market chunk owing to consumer inclination for quaternary ammonium and copper sulfate compounds in order to control a wide range of algal species.

Moreover, the global algaecides market is bifurcated based on form as a liquid, granular crystal, and pellet. Of these, granular algaecides are the dominating form segment in the global market due to higher dissolution and penetration into the algal cells.

Region-wise, the global market is segregated into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa.
