The global axial flow pump market size is expected to reach USD 5,054.8 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 3.5% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The global market has been growing due to increased energy consumption and exploratory activities. In addition, factors, such as favorable government policies and increasing demand for energy-efficient axial flow pump solutions, are anticipated to drive the overall market demand. Axial flow pumps are extensively used in the various stages of wastewater treatment, including aeration tanks, mixing tanks, and others, to facilitate proper mixing and aeration for an effective treatment process.
The efficient and high-capacity features of axial flow pumps make them well-suited for applications where large volumes of water or wastewater need to be moved, mixed, or treated. They play a significant role in ensuring the effective management of water resources and maintaining the proper functioning of wastewater treatment. Increasing awareness about environmental pollution, stringent regulations on waste and wastewater management, and growing demand for sustainable and efficient wastewater treatment solutions are expected to drive the market demand. Significant axial flow pump application is seen in irrigation systems, flood control systems, and sewage water treatment facilities. Axial flow pumps are also widely used in agriculture to remove surplus or unwanted water from fields as well as to pump water from water reservoirs to fields.
In the upcoming years, the market is projected to grow due to the aforementioned applications. These pumps can also be used in situations where low pressures and high flow rates are necessary. To circulate fluids through evaporators and sewage digesters, axial flow pumps are mostly employed in power plants. These pumps are predicted to witness a high adoption rate due to their ease of handling, greater stage efficiencies, reduced aerodynamic losses, short blade lengths, and smaller dimensions. Manufacturers are looking for partnerships, and M&As to diversify their product offerings and boost output. To meet the growing demand from the application sectors, such as agriculture, construction & building services, water & wastewater, power generation, oil & gas, chemicals, and manufacturers are also concentrating on expanding their manufacturing facilities.
