Water transport
Wastewater transport is the collection, treatment and transport of domestic and industrial wastewater to treatment plants. Pumps, pipes and sewage systems are used to move and treat the wastewater.
The importance of
Efficient Wastewater Transport
Wastewater transport is an essential step in wastewater treatment, where wastewater from households and industries is collected and transported to a treatment plant for further treatment. Efficient wastewater transport is crucial to ensure the safety of the environment and public health.
Wastewater transport is usually carried out through a network of underground sewage systems and pumps that move the wastewater. This process requires regular maintenance and inspection to prevent potential problems such as blockages, leaks and flooding.
One of the biggest challenges of wastewater transport is reducing its impact on the environment. For example, disconnecting rainwater from the wastewater system prevents flooding of the system during peak rainfall and allows more rainwater to infiltrate into the soil. The use of energy-efficient pumps and pipes can also help to reduce the environmental impact.
The role of pumps in wastewater transport
The role of pumps in wastewater transport is vital. Pumps ensure that wastewater is transported from the source to the processing facility. The efficient functioning of pumps is essential for maintaining a sustainable and effective wastewater system.
An important function of pumps is to move wastewater by means of pressure. The waste water is collected in pipes and flows to the pumps. The pumps increase the pressure of the water so that it can be transported to the next stage of treatment. This process continues until the wastewater is finally discharged or recycled.
Pumps are also essential for maintaining a constant flow rate. A constant flow rate is important because it prevents the system from clogging. When the flow is interrupted, sludge and other material can remain in the pipes, which can lead to clogging and damage to the system.
Another important function of pumps is to pump wastewater over long distances. Sometimes it is necessary to transport waste water over long distances, for example from an urban environment to a processing facility located outside the city. Pumps ensure that this waste water can be transported efficiently and effectively.
There are different types of pumps used in wastewater transport. Centrifugal pumps, for example, are very popular due to their ability to move large volumes of water. Positive displacement pumps are also popular for their ability to pump both water and sludge.
However, pumps need regular maintenance to keep working efficiently. This includes replacing worn parts and checking the overall operation of the pump. A regular maintenance schedule is essential to ensure that the pumps continue to operate reliably and that the wastewater transport system continues to function smoothly.
Finally, it is important to choose the right pump for a specific application. The right choice of pump depends on several factors, including the volume and composition of the wastewater, the distance to be traveled and the pressure requirements. Choosing the right pump is essential for the efficiency and reliability of the wastewater transport system.

Advice and sales
The best possible solution for your application
There are many different types of pumps and just as many applications, such as a submersible, circulation or well pump. Due to this diversity of pumps, it is wise to be well informed about what type of pump is required before you purchase one or have it overhauled. The IPG team with various pump experts can always advise you on the best possible solution for your application and can also support you with the purchase and installation of the pump.
IPG has strong relationships with various pump manufacturers and can therefore give you good advice in purchasing many types and brands of pumps. For example, the Industrial Pump Group is the Dutch importer of SAER and official dealer of Lowara, Grundfos and Seepex, among others.
Submersible pumps
The ideal solution for wastewater transport and sewage systems
Submersible pumps are specially designed to be submerged in wastewater, making them the ideal solution for sewerage and wastewater transport. These pumps can be positioned horizontally or vertically and work by pumping wastewater using an impeller that rotates around an axis.
One of the biggest advantages of submersible pumps is their reliability. Because the pump is in the wastewater, it can efficiently pump the wastewater without the risk of clogging or other problems. In addition, submersible pumps are easy to maintain, as they are easy to access for repairs and replacements.
Another important advantage of submersible pumps is their efficiency. These pumps can handle large volumes of waste water and are extremely suitable for transporting waste water over long distances. In addition, submersible pumps are designed to be energy efficient, contributing to the sustainability of the sewage system and wastewater transport.
Submersible pumps are commonly used in wastewater treatment plants and sewage systems due to their reliability and efficiency. They are capable of handling waste water containing various solids and liquids and are resistant to corrosion and wear. In addition, submersible pumps are suitable for both temporary and permanent installations and can be used both submerged and above ground.
