With the continuous improvement of global environmental awareness, green, non-toxic and harmless defoamers will become mainstream. In the future, water treatment defoamers will pay more attention to their environmental performance and reduce their impact on the environment. Specifically, this includes the development of defoamers with low VOC (volatile organic compound) content and products with good biodegradability. At the same time, during use, it will also reduce pollution to water resources and other natural resources, and improve the sustainability of the entire water treatment process.

Efficiency is one of the important development directions for defoamers in future water treatment. With the expansion of industrial production scale and the increasing demand for water treatment, the performance requirements for defoamers are also becoming higher and higher. Therefore, the future water treatment defoamers will pursue higher defoaming efficiency to meet the demand for rapid removal of foam. In addition, corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance are also key factors in improving the efficiency of defoamers, and will receive more attention and research.

In addition to its basic defoaming function, future water treatment defoamers will also develop towards multifunctionality. For example, developing defoamers with multiple functions such as antibacterial, deodorizing, and water purification to meet the needs of different industries and water treatment scenarios. This trend towards multifunctionality will enable defoamers to play a more comprehensive and effective role in water treatment processes.

With the continuous development of intelligent technology, water treatment defoamers will also achieve intelligent control and management. Through the intelligent monitoring system and automatic control system, the generation of foam in the water treatment process can be monitored in real time, and the dosage and dosage mode of defoamer can be automatically adjusted to achieve the best defoaming effect. Meanwhile, intelligent technology can also improve the stability and reliability of water treatment processes, reducing the risks and costs of manual operations.

The continuous emergence of new materials and processes will bring new opportunities for the development of water treatment defoamers. For example, the application of advanced technologies such as nanotechnology and biotechnology can develop defoamer products with better performance and environmental friendliness. At the same time, new production processes and preparation methods will also improve the production efficiency and product quality of defoamers, and reduce production costs.

In summary, the future development direction of water treatment defoamers will revolve around environmental protection, high efficiency, multifunctionality, intelligence, and the application of new materials and processes. These development directions will drive the continuous innovation and development of the water treatment defoamer industry, making greater contributions to the protection and sustainable utilization of water resources.
