Dublin, Feb. 06, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Coagulants & Flocculants - A Global Market Overview" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global flocculants and coagulants market has been witnessing a marked transition from traditionally used chemical flocculants, such as alum and ferric chloride, towards natural products derived from plants. As a consequence of this, demand for natural coagulants and flocculants has spiked over the recent years and is likely to maintain this trend over the coming period. Asia-Pacific is the largest global market for coagulants and flocculants and is also anticipated to register the fastest growth during the reporting period.

In terms of market share, globally, Inorganic Coagulants and Organic Coagulants account for approximately equal shares under Coagulants while Synthetic Flocculants type leads the Flocculants global market with 42% in 2018 closely followed by Mineral Flocculants with 30% in the same year.
