  Rising investments in water & wastewater industry is driving the market growth

  
  

Market CAGR for diaphragm pumps is being driven by the rising investments in water & wastewater industry. The most popular positive displacement pump and also known as a membrane pump is a diaphragm pump. Additionally, a diaphragm pump employs a combination of the reciprocating motion of a thermoplastic, Teflon, or rubber diaphragm and the associated valves (flap valves, globe valves, check valves, butterfly valves, or any other type of valves) on both sides of the diaphragm to pump fluids. Because they can handle a wide range of fluids, diaphragm pumps are often utilized in various companies. In addition, because they can move liquids with a range of viscosities, including high, medium, and low, as well as liquids with significant solid contents, diaphragm pumps are renowned for their high viscous moveable property.

Additionally, in the oil and gas business, diaphragm pumps are used in a variety of applications over a wide performance spectrum, from exploration to processing to transportation to consumer, embracing the full value chain of the sector. For the pharmaceutical business, diaphragm pumps are the ideal option since they frequently have CIP (clean-in-place) and SIP (sterilization-in-place) capabilities. The epidemic has highlighted the value of and brought attention to the pharmaceutical sector. The number of individuals 65 and older in the globe is expected to quadruple by 2050, according to the UN globe Population Prospects (2020). As a result, the prevalence of chronic diseases is rising, and patients frequently experience many illnesses. The issue is further exacerbated by the expanding middle class and the rise in sedentary behavior. As a result, the demand for pharmaceutical items might increase, which would increase the need for the diaphragm pumps needed to produce them.

Larger-sized particles can accumulate in the pump chamber or body and stop the diaphragms from moving, which will stop the pump from working. Additionally, these solid particles have a tendency to collect around ball valve seats, making it difficult for the valves to correctly re-seat. This can result in poor performance, a decrease in efficiency and the ability to precisely measure, and ultimately a loss of prime, which will cause the pump to cease operating. Maintaining the check valve clean necessitates routine maintenance of the pumps. Peristaltic pumps, which perform well when the fluid being pushed contains significant quantities of particle, may be preferred by some operators. The market for diaphragm pumps may suffer as a result during the anticipated era of expansion. For instance, the International Energy Agency (IEA) forecasts that oil demand will rise by 2.1 mb/d in 2022 compared to 2021. Due to the extensive disruption of Russian oil production caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the world's oil supply has also been shocked. The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and the US, two other producers, may therefore combine to increase their exploration and production efforts to make up for the Russian shortage. Thus, result in driving the Diaphragm Pumps market revenue.

Diaphragm Pumps Market Segment Insights:

Diaphragm Pumps Operation Insights

The Diaphragm Pumps market segmentation, based on operation includes single, and double. The double segment dominated the market in 2022. These items employ two diaphragms that reciprocate back and forth, one of which drives liquid into the chamber, the other into the discharge line, and both of which serve as a partition between the liquid and the air.

Diaphragm Pumps Mechanism Insights

The Diaphragm Pumps market segmentation, based on mechanism, includes air operated, and electrically operated. The air operated category held the greatest proportion of the market in 2022. Air-operated diaphragm pumps are powered by compressed air, which enables them to move a variety of fluids, including slurries, sludge, abrasive, and high viscosity fluids. Given that it offers a broad variety of applications in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and oil and gas industries, it is projected that the air operated segment's growth would accelerate soon.
