How does adding water features enhance your home’s beauty?

Wastewater Pump Stations – Cleaning our Nation’s water supply

Posted on June 18, 2012 by splashme@splashomnimedia.com

Wastewater pump stations – Where does it go when you flush?

Have you ever wondered what actually happens when you flush your toilets? Where does all that waste go?

Your community has an entire system of underground pipes that carry the waste water away from your home and into a waste water treatment facility. Waste water pump stations are used to transfer this waste water to treatment facilities. They play a vital role in removing the waste from our country’s water supply.

Once the waste water arrives at the treatment facility, the water is moved into a large tank where the solid materials drop to the bottom and the oil is removed. The water is then pumped into another tank where it is cleaned and any bacterial material is removed. The final step is to sanitize and purify the water.

At the end of this process, the water is pumped into local waterways such as canals, lakes and other large bodies of water. It is then pumped back into our communities. Without the valuable wastewater pump stations, we risk running out of clean water for our daily use.

Irrigation Filters Keep the Water Flowing

Posted on June 11, 2012 by splashme@splashomnimedia.com

Irrigation filters protect and add longevity to an irrigation system.

Irrigation filters protect system components from organic matter and other debris. Drip irrigation systems are susceptible to plugging caused by organic material such as algae. Conventional irrigation system components can become worn or damaged by sand and other debris. A properly selected irrigation filter can remove this material and keep the system operating at peak performance There are several types of irrigation filters depending on your particular system. Four types of filters are:

Centrifugal filters: The water is spun through a cylinder. Centrifugal force causes the debris to collect on the outside of the cylinder and gravity forces it in a collecting tank. This tank is periodically flushed to remove the debris. Centrifugal filters work especially well for removing sand from well water.

Disk filters: Disk filters are a series of grooved disks that stack on top of each other. As the water passes through the filter, the discs capture the debris and other organic material.

Media filters: Media filters are large filters that work great removing organic material. They consist of large tanks that are filled with some type of media (usually sand). The water is filtered as it flows through the media.

Screen Filters: Screen filters are used to remove organic and inorganic particles. Screen filters are easy to clean and service compared to disc and media filters.

Whatever type of irrigation system you have, you need to keep your filters clean so that they properly operate and clean your water supply. The irrigation specialists at W. P. Law, Inc. will be happy to provide you with the right type of irrigation filters for your specific needs.

How do pump stations move our country’s water supply?

Pump stations are used in many different applications to transfer water from one area to another. Pump stations are used to supply fresh drinking water to your home, to supply farmers with irrigation, and to transfer sewage to treatment plants for processing. Pump stations also have many industrial uses as well. Here are two types of pump stations:

Irrigation Pump Stations: Irrigation pump stations are used to pump water from large bodies of water and deliver it to specific areas where it is needed. Farmers use pump stations to irrigate their crops and provide water for their animals. They are also used to remove flood waters from low lying areas.

Sewage Pump Stations: Sewage pump stations are used to move waste water from the community and transfer it to a treatment facility. Once the waste water arrives at the treatment facility it is cleaned and purified and then routed back into the rivers and canals.

Pump stations play a vital role in the use and conservation of our most precious natural resource. For more information about pump stations contact the experts at W. P. Law, Inc.
