India has abundant rains, but the water is not distributed throughout the country. In addition, deteriorating surface water quality has made India to seek a sustainable option - desalination. Desalination is a process of removing excess of salts and minerals in the water and make it fit for consumption. With the water availability in India to be reduced to 1,000 cubic meters per person per year by 2050, fresh water demand is expected to rise. Hence, India has a huge untapped potential for the desalination market. http://www.frost.com/prod/servlet/report-toc.pag?Src=RSS&repid=P57A-01-00-00-00 Wed, 4 Jan 2012 08:45:31 +0000 http://www.frost.com/prod/servlet/report-toc.pag?Src=RSS&repid=P57A-01-00-00-00 Market Engineering Research Service This study provides a comprehensive market assessment of the global Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Recycling Services Market including market structure, growth opportunities and competitive analysis.
