Wastewater Lift Stations Engineering
Few if any wastewater lift stations , buildings, flyovers, highways, retention walls, dams are built without the expertise of a civil engineer. Civil engineers have vast knowledge of sewage and wastewater systems and this is key to the successful install of the Taylor packaged wastewater lift station. We contact the civil engineer at the inception of each design. This is imperative because, from the start, they work with the many regulatory agencies that must approve the project. Agencies like the DEQ and NOAA Fisheries that oversee the protection of the environment and our oceans and shorelines.
Wastewater Lift Stations Specifications
Engineering “specifications” provide the technical narrative that inform selection of components and general construction standards for the packaged wastewater lift station. At Taylor Pump Stations, we take the issue of specifications seriously! This leads to excellent relationships with civil engineers. Civil engineers generally lead the engineering team that often includes electrical, mechanical, and structural engineers. Together, the team makes sure that the control and piping systems of the packaged wastewater lift station meet all specifications. Civil engineers choose to work with Taylor Pump Stations because they know the specifications we incorporate in our packaged wastewater lift stations are derived from top government and institutional agencies.
Safety
Engineers have a special appreciation for safety features. That’s why so many design engineers choose to work with us and install our proprietary EZZ-Klean wet well cleaning component. Engineers are trained extensively in the dangers of working in confined spaces and they know that a wastewater lift station is a particularly hazardous confined space. Taylor Pump Stations is a licensed dealer of The EZZ-Klean™️device. This Device is like a central Vacuum cleaner for the home. We place the built in stationary VacTube™️ optimally at the bottom of the well and has an easy release cap at the top of the lid to make for a safe and EZZ- Klean process. We have employed the EZZ-Klean in large municipal applications like the City Of Portland Parks Department as well as small micro septic tanks and even bilges of boats.
Procurement Process
The procurement process starts with the Public Works Department or a government agency. The solicitation is usually via an Standard Request for Proposals or as its abbreviated call out an RFP. We bid on all wastewater lift stations but we primarily look for lift stations that are a component of the overall wastewater conveyance system. We utilize industry publications such as Water and Waste Digest as well as Pumps and Systems to locate agencies and design firms that are currently working on a wastewater lift station design.
Taylor Pump Stations makes ordering a packaged wastewater lift station simple! This is on one of many features that engineers like. The MUNI- 105™️The MUNI- 106 ™️and the MUNI-108 ™️are all packaged duplex lift stations. They all have high standard municipal specifications incorporated in their design. The numbering designation i.e. “105 “ refers to the well’s size. The “well” or “wet well” is the holding structure for the wastewater and pumping equipment. The Muni “105” is 10 ft. deep and 5 ft. in diameter. Depth can be increased but The Muni “105” diameter is always 5ft. This naming logic continues with the MUNI- 106 and the MUNI-108.
Work with us!
.We have provided wastewater lift stations for The Department of Defense, leading environmental firms and Indian Nations. We look for projects and engineers that specialize in the process and control of wastewater, biological waste, industrial plant wash down facilities, as well as the complexities of high PH processing found in wineries and breweries.
