PRESENTATION:

The vacuum sewing system collects transports and ejects waste water from small flow units placed on
small slope surfaces.
Because classical systems imply high depths for waste water collecting in densely populated area, the
vacuum technology is superior and recommended for residential neighborhoods constructed near highly pop-
ulated urban areas. The vacuum sewing system is modern, economic and ecologic with good applicability in
plane areas from our country. THE WAY IT WORKS:
The drain water is collected using gravity
from each building, in a collecting room
outside the building. When the water vol-
ume reaches a specific level, a pneumatic
controller is activated and a vacuum
vane empties the water into the col-
lecting pipe.
No electric current is needed because all operations are pneumatic. In certain situations, the vacuum
sewer system can be implemented without digging, placing the system above ground. The whole sewing sys-
tem is under negative pressure generated by a vacuum station.
The vacuum sewer system con-
sists of a vacuum station, valve
chamber package and vacuum
pipeline. The system name is usu-
ally given by the producer of the
vacuum valve.
The buildings from which the sewing water is col-
lected are connected to a collection chamber
through small depth pipes with gravitational
functioning.
Vacuum sewer lines are pipes made of high density Polyethylene
(HDPE) joints are electrically welded. The air allowed through the
vacuum valve is driving the sewage water through the pipes. Ini-
tially the wastewater is moved with almost 6m/s as a mix of wa-
ter and liquid*3+. The speed decreases until the air has exceeded
the water toward the vacuum unit, here the pipe acts like classic
gravitation sewage and the waste water flows and stops at the
lower end of the pipe called inverse lifting step.

CONCLUSIONS:
The hydraulic know how the system is de-
signed by the valve producers, as a result of the
continuous development, the experience accu-
mulated in maintaining the existing systems al-
lows the construction of large area sewing net-
works with large number of users.
