Sewage Pumping Stations Design Services

Optimized Pumping Station Designs for EPC Contractors & Sanitation Organizations

At Fundametal Technologies, we offer expert design services for Intermediate and Main Pumping Stations in sewage treatment plants (STPs). Our data-driven approach, combined with CFD-verified simulations, ensures hydraulically optimized designs that minimize construction costs, reduce operational failures, and improve screening efficiency.

We work closely with EPC contractors and sanitation organizations, providing detailed design documentation, including:​

  • Hydraulic flow calculations

  • Structural and civil design`

  • Pump and screen sizing

  • Gate and chamber specifications

  • CFD flow simulations for screen chambers and wet wells

Common Issues in Poorly Designed Pumping Stations

  • Screening bypass enters the wet well, leading to pump clogging and frequent downtime

  • Silting due to poor velocity control, reducing effective capacity and increasing maintenance

  • Dead-plate blowout during flooding, damaging screens and chamber structures

  • Fixed pump installations, making maintenance difficult and costly

  • High construction costs from over-engineered, inefficient designs

Our Design Approach – Key Features & Benefits

Common Chamber for Screens Without Full-Height Partition Walls​

  • Shared chamber for all screens, reducing excavation and concrete cost

  • Partition walls truncated at the design flow level, ensuring even flow distribution

  • Prevents hydraulic imbalances and untreated sewage bypass​​

Isolated Screen Chamber & Wet Well​

  • Wet well remains free from screenings, preventing pump clogging

  • Reduces wear and tear on pumping equipment

  • Improves long-term operational reliability​​

CFD-Simulated Flow Verification​

  • Analyzes screen flow characteristics for maximum debris capture

  • Identifies potential silting zones and stagnant areas

  • Ensures smooth hydraulic transitions for trouble-free operation

​​Proper Specification of Gates, Screens & Pumps

​

  • Precision-engineered gates prevent leakage & ensure controlled flow

  • Correctly sized screens enhance screening efficiency & reduce silting

  • Pump selection prevents cavitation & optimizes energy efficiency​​

Removable Pump Design for Easy Maintenance​

  • Quick lifting via guide rails, allowing easy access for maintenance

  • Eliminates the need for confined space entry

  • Minimizes downtime and reduces operational costs​​

Velocity Control for Reduced Silting & Better Screening Capture​

  • Ensures ideal flow across screens to prevent sediment accumulation

  • Enhances debris capture while maintaining smooth operation

  • Optimized hydraulic stability for reliable performance​

Lower Construction Costs Through Smart Civil & Structural Design​

  • Reduces material requirements for chamber and partition walls

  • Minimizes excavation and reinforcement needs

  • Ensures structural integrity while cutting costs

Designed for Automation & Smart Control

Our pumping station designs can be adapted to various automation levels, including:​

  • Fully Automated – Integrated with sensors for real-time control

  • Partially Automated – Operator-assisted control for optimized efficiency

  • Manual Operation – Simple, cost-effective for smaller installations

  • SCADA Integration – Optional remote monitoring & control
