Rising Scarcity of Water is Boosting the Demand for Water Wastage Solutions
The rising population and constant change in climate across the world are the key factors causing water scarcity. As per the latest UN World Water Development Report, climate change impacts the quality, availability, and quantity of water required for basic human needs, therefore damaging the sanitation and safe drinking water for billions of people. According to the President of the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), the limiting global temperature's is a seriously emerging concerns are increases to below 2°C and attaining the Sustainable Development Goals by the year 2030. Thus, immediate action should be taken by adopting various solutions to manage water and climate in an organized manner. Further, growing water demand is due to economic development and population growth. As the water requirement worldwide is witnessed to be increased by 600% over the past 100 years, it is further anticipated to increase over the next two decades for domestic, industrial, and agriculture usage. The water requirement for domestic and industrial use is projected to grow faster than agricultural demand worldwide. Around 70% of the total water is used for agriculture globally. However, the increasing issue of water scarcity is creating hurdles to meet the requirement of water for the agricultural and industrial sectors.
Offering-Based Market Insights
Based on offering, the global water pipeline leak detection system market is segmented into hardware and software and services. The hardware segment includes sensors, alarms, monitors, and display.

These sensors are small, waterproof, light weight, and easy to handle. They comprise in-built magnet. They are easy to install, and they do not require special handling.
Equipment Type-Based Market Insights
Based on equipment type, the water pipeline leak detection system market is segmented into acoustic and non-acoustic. The acoustic water pipeline leak detection solution offers transparency in the distribution network, all the way to the end users. It also provides a valuable tool for the facility when an effective water leak monitoring system is required, thus creating a proactive approach to fighting for non-revenue water (NRW). The acoustic solutions permit the facilities to focus majorly on the small areas, depending upon where the acoustic is high.
Pipe Type-Based Market Insights
Based on pipe type, the water pipeline leak detection system market is segmented into plastic pipes, ductile iron pipes, stainless steel pipes, and others. In the underground conditions, the ductile cast iron pipe has a semi-rigid behavior as it provides an exceptional settlement between mechanical stress in the wall (small diameter nominal (DN)) and ovality (large DN). The ground/semi-rigid pipe system delivers optimum mechanical stability over time without the risk of buckling in large DN. The significant advantage of ductile iron pipe systems over other alternative materials is the substantial variety and amount of thrust restraint joint options.
End User-Based Market Insights
Based on end user, the water pipeline leak detection system market is segmented into non-residential and residential. The non-residential segment of the water pipeline leak detection system market includes industrial, malls, office premises, and banks pipeline systems. The manufacturing and industrial processing plants demand for the installation of an efficient water leak detection system for the plants' safe operation. Similarly, installing a water pipeline network is one of the most critical tasks across various facilities such as office premises and malls. A small leakage in the pipeline network across these facilities will cost heavy operational cost.
