GRAVITY-FLOW, FORCE MAINS, PUMP STATIONS...
HOW CAN WE HELP?
With most land-development projects, the sanitary sewer system is the first utility to be installed. This system ordinarily relies on the force of gravity to move sewage through a network of pipes.
Proper collection and treatment of sewage is critical to the health and welfare of a community. The effluent—which can consist of human waste, industrial waste and household waste—requires careful conveyance and safe disposal.
Design considerations include:
- Location of existing sanitary sewer networks.
- Physical conditions of existing and proposed sites.
- Requirements and standards of regulating agencies.
- Usage of site/project.
- Plan for growth.
- Requirements for peak flow.
- Cost.
While gravity-flow systems are the most common, Lutjen also provides designs for force mains and pump stations. These systems accommodate conveyance when existing outfalls are too high for a gravity-flow system. In the event that your property falls outside the service area of a public system, there are other systems available, such as lateral fields and septic systems. Regardless of your existing conditions, Lutjen can provide you with various sewage management strategies to meet your specific project objectives.
