Wastewater n etwork pumping systems are only a small part of th e sewer network\, yet they have a disproportionate impact on the performance of many sewerage system s\, due to poor hydraulic performance\, poor relia bility\, odour complaints\, bacterial corrosion an d short asset lives . The environmental impact of failures is also high\, with a high proportion of them leading to serious pollution and prosecution.
\n \nReliability problems and poor performance of net work pumping installations are often caused\, or e xacerbated by\, ill-informed decisions taken right at the start of the planning stage. Design change s during construction that are not properly consid ered by the designers\, and subsequent changes are also a major cause of failures as are poorly cons idered upgrading or refurbishment schemes.< /p>\n \n
To help to address the problem\, the Water Research Centr e (WRc) is publishing a new manual which describes the complete design process\, pointing out the im plications of each decision. Resilience is conside red at each stage with the development of continge ncy plan a key part of the design process.< /p>\n \n
This se minar will outline the common causes of many of th e problems experienced with wastewater pumping sys tems as well as providing an overview of the new m anual and the significant changes to approach that are advocated by it.

The environmental impact of failures is also high\, w ith a high proportion of them leading to serious p ollution and prosecution. \n \n \n \n Reliability problems and poor performance of network pumping i nstallations are often caused\, or exacerbated by\ , ill-informed decisions taken right at the start of the planning stage. Design changes during const ruction that are not properly considered by the de signers\, and subsequent changes are also a major cause of failures as are poorly considered upgradi ng or refurbishment schemes.\n \n \n \n To help to address the problem\, the Water Research Centre ( WRc) is publishing a new manual which describes th e complete design process\, pointing out the impli cations of each decision.
