미국의 도시 하수 재활용 시장 : 시장 동향과 예측(2025-2035년)

Water reuse is increasingly being recognized as a cornerstone of resilient water supply planning in the U.S. Once regarded as a niche solution for drought-prone western states, it has evolved into a mainstream, cost-competitive option for augmenting stressed freshwater supplies. Declining treatment costs, improved regulatory frameworks, and greater public acceptance are making water reuse more attractive than developing new surface or groundwater resources.

The urgency to secure future supplies-exacerbated by groundwater depletion, saltwater intrusion, and persistent drought-has accelerated the momentum toward broader adoption of reuse, particularly for potable offtake applications. With the U.S. municipal water reuse sector forecasted to drive over US$47.1 billion in capital investment from 2025 to 2035, treated wastewater is steadily emerging as an attractive alternative source of water. This approach provides a means to diversify water portfolios for urban, agricultural, and industrial users.

Bolstered by increased funding, stronger public support, and heightened legislative activity, the U.S. municipal water reuse market is poised for long-term growth. However, challenges such as a fragmented policy landscape, complex permitting processes, and high up-front capital costs continue to constrain scalability.

This 2025-2035 forecast assesses the growth potential of municipal water reuse by utilizing a historical dataset of more than 1,000 projects across 22 states, outlining state-level activity and capital investment over the next decade.
