Pumping stations
Pumping stations
Pumping stations have a fundamental function in water and wastewater infrastructure. There are approximately 20,000 large pumping stations in Sweden’s municipal water and wastewater system, ensuring access to drinking water, stormwater and sewage. Uniwater’s specialists offer pumping stations with concrete, fibreglass, and stainless steel wells.
Efficient water management provides secure access water and wastewater solutions
With the help of the specialists at Uniwater Pumping stations, we are upgrading water infrastructure in Sweden and Norway for the future. Many pumping stations have been in use since the 50s and 60s and now need replacement. Here, we have a crucial role as an enabler to ensure clean water and sanitation in society. Our companies manufacture wells in concrete, GAP and stainless steel, and the buildings are made in concrete or wood.
Gothenburg’s largest pumping station
One of the highlights of 2022 was the completion of the Kodammarna project. Kodammarna is the largest pumping station in Gothenburg, receiving wastewater from roughly 185,000 people.
Norvatek was commissioned to replace, rebuild and extend Kodammarna. Since the existing plant could not be shut down as the wastewater could not be diverted, we had to build the new pumping station next to the old one. The new station is designed for the Gothenburg of the future, where the city’ development, environmental and sustainability requirements are met. The project covered everything from pre-production to completion and finishing work.
Unique superstructure symbol in Oxelösund
At the entrance to Oxelösund stands a six-metre-high beacon, which has become something of a symbol for the municipality. Few people know that inside, there is a pumping station – with a pump sump that goes down six metres underground.
The unique superstructure is not only a symbol of Oxelösund but also of how Rostfria VA-system likes to custom-build its deliveries to customers, such as municipalities. Rostfria constructs and delivers an insulated and internally finished superstructure but without a vaulted ceiling or façade, which means the customer can put any kind of building they want outside the structure. It is a unique opportunity to create attractions of your municipality’s finest – while securing water supply and sanitation for the residents.
IT-controlled water kiosk for water trucks, emergency services and drinking water abstraction
As a municipality, you can get a complete water kiosk with a customised superstructure from Dala Kommunalteknik AB. The water kiosk is delivered functionally tested from the factory and lifted into place by a crane truck. The complete plant is suitable for abstracting technical water, especially for water trucks and asphalt paving machines. It has a user-friendly and easily accessible fire hydrant with the right pressure and flow for emergency services. Moreover, it can be used for drinking water withdrawal, reducing the need for emergency water tanks.
The water kiosk is controlled via KZ-Handel’s reliable IT solution and all withdrawals go via GSM to www.vattenkiosk.se, which makes it easy for you as a municipality to control and charge for withdrawals.
