Double Diaphragm Pump Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Operation (Air Operated, Electrically Operated), By Pressure (Up to 80 Bar, 80-200 Bar, Above 200 Bar), By Application (Wastewater & Water, Oil & Gas, Petrochemical & Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Food & Beverages, Others) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

The double diaphragm pumps are the positive displacement pumps which displace the fluid using the two flexible diaphragms. The movement of the diaphragms in back and forth and therefore a temporary chamber is created which draws in and expels the fluid through the pump. These pumps also include suction and discharge check valves which prevent any backflow. These pumps can operate using viscous fluids, corrosive chemicals, slurry, oils, creams, gels, sensitive foodstuffs, and also the pharma products.

This versatility of the pumps in handling different types of fluids and the varied application segments of the double diaphragm pumps such as wastewater treatment, pharmaceutical, oil and gas, chemicals, food and beverages, and others will the global market for the double diaphragm pump grow at a good rate during the given forecast period.

The other factors influencing the growth of the double diaphragm pump market are growing industrialization, increasing population, increasing urbanization, and rising demand for energy which in turn sees rise in exploration activities in the growing economies.   

Based on its operation, the global double diaphragm pump market can be segmented into electrically operated and air operated. The air operated segment currently holds the larger market share as compared to electrically operated pumps and this trend is set to continue over the given forecast period seeing the air-operated double diaphragm pumps dominate the market. Based on pressure, the market is segmented as up to 80 bar, 80-200 bar and above 200 bar discharge pressure.

Based on its applications, the global double diaphragm pump market can be segmented wastewater and water, oil & gas, petrochemical and chemical, pharmaceutical, food and beverages, and others. Owing to the increased adoption in the wastewater treatment plants, the wastewater, and water segment will dominate the agitation pumps over the given forecast period.

The major market driver for the global double diaphragm pump market is the increasing demand for wastewater treatment in the major cities around the world. The rising exploration activities in the oil and gas sector, owing to the increased energy demand will also drive the growth of the global double diaphragm pump market.

The key market restraint for the global double diaphragm pump market is the presence of other types of pumps in the market which serve the same purpose as the double diaphragm pumps do. Pumps like progressive capacity pumps, agitation pumps, submersible water pumps, and other high-pressure pumps can hinder the growth of the global diaphragm pump market with increase in their adoption.
