Technology
VACUUM SEWERAGE SYSTEMS
Vacuum sewerage systems are wastewater collection systems.
An air stream generated by differential air pressure drives the wastewater toward a vacuum station.
Vacuum sewer systems are…
• Collection Systems for domestic waste water.
• Easy to install systems for waste water within low and medium dense residential, industrial, commercial or mixed use areas
• State of technology, eco-friendly, safe and operator friendly systems (DWA-A 116-1, EN1091, WEF, EPA)
• Alternatives for conventional gravity sewer systems under difficult conditions
Vacuum sewer systems are NOT…
• Transportation system for waste water (pumping station replacement).
• Main collectors for large sewer systems.
APPLICATIONS…
• Flat terrain und lack of natural slope
• Little flows and long distances within expanded municipalities with seasonal flows within resorts
• High ground water tables
• Unstable underground (Rocky, sandy or swampy)
• Ecologically sensitive areas
• Existing infrastructure, limited construction space
Example of Applications…
• Low dense residential, industrial, commercial or mixed used developments
• Holiday resorts with villas and bungalows and/or seasonal flows
• Marinas, corniche promenades and harbours
• Rehabilitation of existing sewer systems
• Installation of sewer systems within existing developments.
• Natural or artificial Islands, reclaimed land
• Flood areas or areas exposed to sea and river tides

Vacuum Station
Where the vacuum is generated, the wastewater is collected, then pumped to a wastewater treatment facility.
Vacuum Pipeline System
Typically consisting of a branched network of vacuum sewer pipe.
Collection Chambers
