The water treatment application segment is projected to lead the Chitosan Market, in terms of value from 2017 to 2022. 

Chitosan is used in the water treatment application due to its biosorbent ability, which enables it to remove pollutants from wastewater. The wastewater from industries and other such sources is a severe threat to the environment. The contaminants present in the industrial wastewater deteriorate the quality of water and as such, are a threat to the aquatic life. Chitosan is one of the inexpensive materials used for the treatment of water. It offers outstanding absorbing capabilities than any other absorbent. Thus, these factors lead to the increased use of chitosan in the water treatment application, thereby contributing to the growth of the water treatment application segment of the Chitosan Market.

The Asia Pacific Chitosan Market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR, in terms of value during the forecast period. 

China is expected to be the largest market for chitosan in the Asia Pacific region. China, Vietnam, and India are the leading manufacturers of chitosan in the Asia Pacific region. The increasing inflow of wastewater from various industries and growing demand for fresh water is expected to drive the growth of the Chitosan Market in these countries. Changing food habits is the primary reason for obesity and obesity-related diseases in the Asia Pacific region. This is driving the demand for dietary supplements and nutraceuticals in the region, thereby leading to the growth of the Asia Pacific Chitosan Market. With the increasing population, growing industrialization, and depleting freshwater sources, the demand for fresh water is increasing rapidly in the Asia Pacific region. There is also an increased demand for clean, potable drinking water from the region. This, in turn, is fueling the growth of the Asia Pacific Chitosan Market.
