The market space for water pollution control is huge, which will benefit water pollution control enterprises and have a positive impact on listed companies in reclaimed water, membrane technology and industrial wastewater treatment.
Water is the source of life. However, with the urbanization, industrial development and the continuous expansion of the population, China is facing a very serious water pollution situation, and the water quality in some areas has even deteriorated. Under this background, the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the relevant departments are preparing the "Water Pollution Prevention Action Plan" in accordance with the requirements of the State Council, which will be submitted to the State Council for review after further revision and improvement.
Although water pollution control has never been relaxed for many years, China's overall water pollution, especially groundwater pollution, has not yet been effectively controlled. According to the “2012 China State of the Environment Bulletin†issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection, among the 4929 groundwater quality monitoring points carried out in 198 prefecture-level administrative regions, the monitoring points of poor and poor water quality accounted for 57.3%. The water quality of the national surface water control section of the country is “lightly polluted overallâ€. A wide range of surface water and groundwater are polluted, and through air pollution, infiltration, etc., spread to affect drinking water sources, directly affecting the quality of drinking water sources, threatening people's drinking water safety, and pollution of river ditch and river otter closely related to the lives of ordinary people. The problem is still very serious.
"The water environment in China is very serious. First, the total amount of water pollutants is still huge. Second, the pollution of groundwater, including groundwater, has not been effectively controlled. Third, some rivers, especially in rural areas, or living closely with the people. The pollution problem of river ditch and river otter is still very serious. Fourth, there are still many shortcomings in the management of water environment.†Deputy Minister of Environmental Protection Yan Qing said that the core of the plan is to improve the quality of the water environment. The focus is on grasping two ends: one is pollution. The heavy places are resolutely governed, and the other is the rivers and lakes with good water quality. They are firmly protected and cannot be polluted and re-treated.
From the perspective of industry development space, China faces the double problem of water shortage and serious water pollution. With the increasing investment in the field of sewage treatment and recycling, the sewage treatment enterprises face a broad market space. According to the “12th Five-Year Plan for the Construction of Urban Wastewater Treatment and Recycling Facilities†issued by the State Council in April 2012, during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan†period, China’s urban sewage treatment and recycling facilities construction plan was nearly 430 billion yuan.
According to industry insiders, after years of water pollution in China, the problem of water pollution is still very serious, and the total amount of water pollutants is still high, far exceeding the current environmental capacity. This stems from the low proportion of funds invested in water pollution control, the need to improve the regulations and standards system, the lack of financial subsidies, and inadequate supervision. After calculation, the current total amount of water pollution must be reduced by 30%-50%, and the water environment will undergo a fundamental change.
In addition, Guo Fanli, research director of China Investment Consulting, pointed out that due to its large investment scale and long payback period, the sewage treatment industry has long been dominated by state-owned enterprises, resulting in a rigid operating mechanism; The Third Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee proposed opening up public utilities (1608.157, -2.02, -0.13%) to allow social capital to enter the public sector. However, in recent years, due to the imperfect policies and legal systems, the implementation of the charging system is not in place. The reason is that social capital enters the industry with certain policy risks and political risks. In order to better introduce private capital into the field of water pollution control, local governments should break local protectionism, provide a more equitable market environment, and promote the rapid development of the sewage treatment industry. In the forthcoming clean water action plan, sludge treatment will be again Be one of the highlights of the policy. The plan proposes that in the next five years, while ensuring the simultaneous construction of sludge treatment facilities at the new sewage treatment plant, the sludge treatment facilities in the operation of the sewage treatment plant will be steadily promoted. At the same time, in the future, the pilot program to increase the sludge treatment fee in the water price reform will be gradually expanded nationwide.
As a branch of the environmental protection industry, sludge treatment has been mentioned in the policy since the 12th Five-Year Plan, but the intensity is not as great as that in the fields of desulfurization, denitrification and waste incineration. With the release of the Clean Water Action Plan, sludge treatment is expected to become a new theme for environmental investment. According to estimates, the basic investment demand for the construction of sludge treatment facilities (including new and existing facilities) will reach 60 billion yuan in the next five years, and the demand for capital investment in the later period will exceed 10 billion yuan per year. The total investment scale will exceed 100 billion yuan.
The "Water Pollution Prevention Action Plan" plans to invest 2 trillion yuan, compared with 1.7 trillion yuan invested in the implementation of the air pollution control action plan. It can be seen that more funds are invested in water pollution control, indicating that the governance is strong and the market space is undoubtedly huge. It will also benefit water pollution control companies and have a positive impact on listed companies in reclaimed water, membrane technology and industrial wastewater treatment.
For the huge amount of 2 trillion yuan invested by the outside world, industry experts believe that this is because water pollution control requires advanced environmental protection technology and equipment and a large amount of funds as a guarantee. In this process, the market is in the prevention and control of water pollution. The advantages should be fully utilized. Experts further explained that the market and the public have become the main body of pollution control and supervision, which can reduce government management costs, improve management efficiency, and enhance the awareness of ecological civilization in the whole society. At the same time, it can actively promote the optimization and upgrading of industrial structure, encourage enterprises to carry out technological innovation, and fundamentally achieve the purpose of preventing water pollution.
Relevant industry analysts said that the main line of investment opportunities for water pollution prevention and control will appear in the following four aspects: commissioned operation of industrial wastewater treatment; expansion of municipal sewage scale; promotion of membrane treatment equipment and engineering; increased demand for other water treatment equipment. The market is expected to further strengthen the policy, and the policy will gradually become clear. Within the scope of water pollution prevention and control, the most relevant ones are upstream water treatment equipment companies, midstream engineering companies, and downstream sewage treatment facilities investment and operation companies.
