Membrane Pump Market

Membrane Pump Market Size (2023-2028):

The Global Membrane Pump Market size was valued at US$ 3.56 billion in 2022 and is estimated to reach a valuation of US$ 4.68 billion by 2028 with an increasing CAGR of 4.92% during 2023 - 2028.

Membrane pumps are a subcategory of positive displacement pumps. They are propelled forward by an air motor. The compressed air fed into the air chambers behind the membranes is used to move two membranes back and forth, which are connected by a pump shaft. A control valve starts the air displacement procedure automatically when the membrane reaches its end position. As a result, clean liquids with low viscosity can be handled by the pumps. This is the significant factor that propels the global membrane pump market forward in the next six years.

MEMBRANE PUMP MARKET REPORT COVERAGE:

Market Segmentation: 

Membrane Pump Market - By Type:

• Hydraulic
• Mechanical
• Solenoid
• Air

Based on type, hydraulic types tend to dominate the global membrane pump market during the forecast period. Hydraulic membrane pumps are often employed in high-pressure lines, such as in petrochemical operations, to restrict changes in discharge volume owing to pressure fluctuations at the injection site. The hydraulic membrane pump reduces its flow rate without modifying the pump's fixed stroke rate with increasing pressure. In addition, the Inverter is ready for V.F.D. Flow control and the hydraulic membrane pump are also available. This factor further drives the global membrane pumps market growth in the upcoming years.

Membrane Pump Market - By Method:

• Electric Operated
• Air Operated

Based on the method, the electric-operated method is anticipated to hold the largest market share and also propels the global membrane pump market forward. This is because electric-powered pumps combine the benefits of air-powered pumps with the efficiency of an electric motor. Because of its high efficiency, it is primarily employed in industries. Moreover, these further comprise low energy cost, long diaphragm lifetime, cost-efficient for spare parts, and clean and easy maintenance. The electric-operated membrane pumps use very little air because a proprietary energy-efficient electric motor powers them. Therefore, only a small or required amount of air is utilized to pressurize the inner chamber, staying inside the pump. Consider the electrically operated technology for applications that demand minimum pulsation and a smooth flow. The innovative drive eliminates or reduces pulsation without the use of expensive dampeners or surge tanks.

Membrane Pump Market - By Application:

• Food and Beverages
• Oil and Gas
• Water and Waste Water
• Pharmaceuticals
• Others

The waste & wastewater segment is predicted to have a considerable proportion of the membrane pumps market based on application. This is due to the growing global demand for safe drinking water and government legislation requiring the industry to dispose of wastewater that does not harm the environment. As a result, membrane pumps are expected to grow in popularity in the pharmaceutical and power-generating industries over the forecast period. 

Market Regional Analysis: 

The Global Membrane Pump Market Report includes the segmentation of Regions:

• North America
• Europe
• Asia Pacific
• Latin America
