Press Release

Thermal Hydrolysis Technology Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.60% through 2030F

The global Thermal Hydrolysis Technology Market is expected to rise owing to growing investment in advanced wastewater treatment infrastructure and the adoption of innovative waste-to-energy solutions to meet renewable energy targets during the forecast period 2026-2030F


According to TechSci Research report, “Thermal Hydrolysis Technology Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F, The Global Thermal Hydrolysis Technology Market was valued at USD 1.89 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 3.10 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 8.60% through 2030.

Governments worldwide are introducing stricter regulations related to waste management, environmental protection, and wastewater treatment, which is driving the adoption of thermal hydrolysis technology. Regulatory bodies are increasingly focusing on reducing the environmental impact of wastewater treatment processes, ensuring that sludge is disposed of in an environmentally friendly and sustainable manner. For instance, regulations on sludge treatment and disposal often mandate the reduction of pathogens, the reduction of volume, and the recovery of energy. Thermal hydrolysis technology addresses these regulatory requirements by improving the efficiency of sludge treatment, reducing pathogens, and making the process more energy efficient. In some cases, regulations require the use of technologies that convert waste into renewable energy, such as biogas, and thermal hydrolysis technology facilitates this by enhancing biogas production. As urbanization and industrialization increase, wastewater treatment facilities face more significant challenges in managing larger volumes of waste. Regulatory pressures encourage the adoption of advanced technologies like thermal hydrolysis, which streamline operations, ensure compliance, and reduce the environmental footprint of treatment plants. As governments continue to implement more stringent environmental policies, the Thermal Hydrolysis Technology Market will experience sustained growth, driven by the need to comply with these regulations and adopt more efficient waste management practices.

An important trend in the Thermal Hydrolysis Technology Market is the growing emphasis on the circular economy and resource recovery. As global concerns about waste management and environmental sustainability continue to rise, there is a strong shift towards technologies that can recover valuable resources from waste, rather than merely treating or disposing of it. Thermal hydrolysis technology fits well into this trend by converting organic sludge into biogas, a renewable energy source. The process also reduces waste volumes, making it easier to handle and dispose of the residual sludge. This aligns with the principles of the circular economy, where waste is viewed as a resource rather than a burden. By improving biogas yields and enhancing the quality of treated sludge, thermal hydrolysis technology supports sustainable energy production and provides wastewater treatment plants with a means to reduce their operational costs. Treated sludge can be used as a fertilizer or soil amendment, further contributing to resource recovery. As the push for a circular economy intensifies, the demand for thermal hydrolysis systems that support waste-to-energy solutions and sustainable resource management is expected to grow.

Based on Solution, Sewage Sludge Management segment dominated the Thermal Hydrolysis Technology Market in 2024 and maintain its leadership throughout the forecast period. Sewage sludge management is a critical area in wastewater treatment, as it involves the treatment and disposal of residual solids from sewage treatment plants. The increasing volume of sewage sludge due to rapid urbanization and industrial growth has led to an urgent need for efficient and sustainable management solutions. Thermal hydrolysis technology plays a pivotal role in this process by enhancing the biodegradability of the sludge, reducing its volume, and converting organic matter into valuable by-products such as biogas. This not only helps in meeting environmental regulations but also contributes to the generation of renewable energy, which is increasingly in demand. Thermal hydrolysis significantly improves the quality of treated sludge, making it suitable for use as a fertilizer or soil conditioner, further supporting its adoption. As municipalities and industries worldwide seek cost-effective and environmentally friendly solutions to manage sewage sludge, the demand for thermal hydrolysis technology in this application is expected to grow. Strict regulations around sludge disposal, particularly in developed regions such as Europe and North America, are driving the market towards more efficient solutions like thermal hydrolysis. The proven ability of this technology to enhance waste-to-energy processes and minimize environmental impact makes sewage sludge management the leading segment within the market, with continued growth anticipated in the coming years.

Asia Pacific is the fastest growing region for the Thermal Hydrolysis Technology Market due to rapid urbanization, industrialization, and increasing environmental concerns.
