Ozone generators market to reach US$2.57 billion by 2033, report says

Persistence Market Research projects 6.5% CAGR from 2026 to 2033 as water infrastructure spending, tighter environmental standards and demand for chemical-free disinfection support growth.

Summary

The global ozone generators market is projected to grow from US$1,654.2 million in 2026 to US$2,570.6 million by 2033, representing a compound annual growth rate of 6.5%, according to a Persistence Market Research report. The study links demand to rising investment in drinking water and wastewater treatment, stricter environmental and public health regulations, and broader use of ozone-based systems for air disinfection, food sanitation and industrial oxidation. The report says North America leads the market with about 32% of revenue, supported by municipal water treatment investment, environmental regulation and adoption across food processing and commercial air purification, while Asia Pacific is projected to be the fastest-growing region with a 7.8% CAGR through 2033 on infrastructure spending, industrialization and clean-water initiatives in China and India. Corona discharge is expected to remain the dominant technology with an estimated 62% share in 2026 because of its efficiency, scalability and lower operating costs, while cold plasma is forecast to record the fastest growth as lower-concentration ozone applications expand in healthcare, laboratories and commercial buildings. The report highlights Xylem's continued focus in 2025 on WEDECO ozone systems combined with digital water solutions for municipal and industrial users. It says the company's treatment technologies and monitoring tools are designed to help utilities improve water quality, operational efficiency and regulatory compliance as the broader market shifts toward more intelligent and sustainable treatment systems.

Terms & Concepts
  • Corona discharge: A method of generating ozone by applying electricity to a gas, widely used because it can produce ozone efficiently at scale.
  • Cold plasma: A lower-temperature ionized gas technology used to generate ozone for sensitive sterilization and air treatment applications.
  • Oxidation: A chemical process used in treatment systems to break down contaminants, odors and microorganisms.
