Large pump station design is complex. Not only does a design have to be feasible¡ªit also must be developed thoughtfully to ensure long-term success. Pump stations that address combined sewer overflows (CSO) typically have high pumping capacities and are very deep. There are only a handful of CSO storage tunnels across North America. It¡¯s critical to consider the long-term operation and lifecycle costs when undertaking a large pump station design.

In this article for Wastewater Digest, Vito Cimino and Douglas Reed explore large pump station design, focusing on several key considerations for peak performance and longevity.
