Active Dosimeter Market Analysis
The Active Dosimeter Market is expected to register a CAGR of 6.8% over the forecast period, 2022-2027. Personal protection from ionizing radiation has become crucial for anyone working in an environment with a risk of exposure. It has also become a legislative requirement of an organization to protect its employees from receiving too high a radiation dose. Such working environments may include hospitals, imaging clinics, laboratories, industrial facilities, and some mines (i.e., mineral sand mines). Individuals working in nuclear power plants, nuclear research facilities, and medical laboratories must monitor their exposure to harmful radiation. Hence, they are the primary users of the electronic personal dosimeter.
- The working environments that require dosimeters may include hospitals, imaging clinics, laboratories, industrial facilities, and some mines (i.e., mineral sand mines). Individuals working in nuclear power plants, nuclear research facilities, and medical laboratories must continually monitor their exposure to harmful radiation. AcOSHA'sg to OSHA's Ionizing Radiation standard, employers must conduct dose monitoring whenever a worker enters a restricted area and receives, or is likely to receive, a dose that exceeds 25% of the applicable occupational limit (5% for workers under the age of 18) in any calendar quarter. Hence, they are the primary users of the electronic personal dosimeter.
- The market studied is growing substantially, primarily due to the rise in demand for these devices. The increasing awareness regarding harmful radiation and its ill effects is expected to market the market's growth.
- However, the market growth is restrained by the high cost of the device. Further, the different readings because of electromagnetic fields might impact the device's accountability, which may be a setback for the market. The device is sensitive to mechanical instability, leading to an inaccurate or false reading. This is hampering the growth of the active dosimeters market.
- The COVID-19 pandemic led to enormous disruptions in supply chains across industries globally, due to which many businesses worldwide halted or reduced operations to help combat the spread of the virus. The pandemic impacted the passive electronic components market, leading to decreased operation levels across the component production and raw material production levels across the supply chain. This represents a fall in sales in many regions and countries.
