Over the last decade, the energy industry has seen tremendous growth in several regions of the United States To support development in areas rich in energy, such as natural gas (usually in smaller communities), local real estate markets have seen urgent demand for increased housing and associated infrastructure. For example, communities in North Dakota have seen dramatic growth through ...
Here are five key benefits: 1) Performance in Harsh Conditions Radar level sensors operate effectively in harsh wastewater conditions, including extreme temperatures, weather (i.e. heavy rain, strong wind), high humidity, and environments with vapours or gases. 2) Non-Contact Measurement Radar uses microwave signals to measure the liquid level, a non-contact method that ensures no damage from the ...
Sanitation systems are another core part of the water cycle as they manage the entire network from their source to their point of use or end-of-life disposal. Technology is also set to play a key role in these networks in 2024, not only to ensure that they run smoothly, but also to respond to extreme events and control the spread of ...

Problem: Broken diffused aeration system allows sludge buildup of 7' along one side of ...
Whether it concerns a submersible pump in the sewer system or a dry-installed pump for a temporary bypass, you keep getting the same reports over and over. “The pump doesn’t work” or “the sewage comes up”, and this one “the pump makes a very strange noise and it’s really ...
BBA Pumps is proud to introduce the new BA150KS DriveOn®. A mobile 6-inch sewage pump with the lowest life cycle costs in the market. This new pump delivers enormous cost savings on both fuel and maintenance. In addition, the pumpset is much less harmful to the environment. Never before has sewer bypass ...
According to UN data, water and climate-related events have accounted for half of the human and economic damage caused by disasters over the last fifty years. Figures show that, during this period, weather, climate and water hazards accounted for 45% of recorded deaths (1.3 million people) and 74% of global economic losses. World Meteorological Organization studies have also put droughts, storms ...

However, one of the most frequently overlooked assets is the sewer network where the environmental impact can be significant. In particular, the risk of methane generation in sewer networks including lineal infrastructure such as pumping stations, and its consequential contribution to climate change is often under-valued and poorly understood. In ...
Project Description Northumbrian Water provides water and sewerage services to 2.7 million people in the North East of England with 27,000 km of sewers and cleared 9500 blockages in 2019. StormHarvester and Northumbrian Water have worked together since early 2018 to analyse pumping chambers in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne in Northern England. This discrete network was ...
These plants come along with costly, large-diameter sewer mains and high-capacity pumps that move sewage to the plants, which are often situated outside of urban areas. ...
The additive stimulates the indigenous bacteria population living in the sewer to accelerate natural biodegradation. The grease is rapidly metabolized by the bacteria in the sewer, not just solubilized. It’s then easily moved downstream to a pump station or sewage treatment plant being consumed along the way. ...
The most reliable and affordable solutions for pumping wastewater and sewer into an existing pressure sewer system will utilize Variable Frequency Drives, also called VFDs. ...
Class I, Division 1 refers to the following hazardous locations in the facility: • Sanitary Sewer/Combined Sewer (Inside) • Wastewater Pumping Station Wet Wells (Entire room) • Above-grade Wastewater Pumping Station (Entire space) • Maintenance Holes (Inside) • Junction Chambers (Inside) • ...
Optimization models are used, aimed at finding optimal configurations for the location, type and size of the system's infrastructure: sewers, pump stations, and wastewater treatment plants. Solutions are evaluated in terms of the cost of installing, operating and maintaining the infrastructure, and the water quality in the river that receives the treated ...
Since that time, the City of Portsmouth’s drainage network has continued to develop but has remained dependent on the use of combined sewers and the Eastney Pumping Station. The city is now served by two interceptor sewers that run north to south on the western and eastern sides of the island. These interceptor sewers carry ...
An application used worldwide, now growing in US to address the needs of small communities and developments Conventional sewer operations managed by small communities provide centralized treatment of wastewater of which residents are accustomed. But the expense of operating these systems as they expand with miles and miles of sewer lines is staggering. Expanding ...
Trash Pumps Defined Simply stated, trash pumps have the ability to pump solids. ...
Chemicals such as magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) and iron salts are widely used to control sulfide-induced corrosion in sewer networks composed of interconnected sewer pipe lines and pumping stations. ...
Odor and Corrosion Control in Pump Stations Using Microcat – ANL BioBlend – BSE 104 Problem Hydrogen sulfide generated in sewer systems can cause safety and maintenance problems including toxicity to humans, odors and corrosion. ...
Refrigerated warehouses could both soak up extra power and dial back their electricity use when renewable energy output drops. Municipal water or sewer systems could pump when power is available and slow down when it is not. ...
