Bay View WWTP Final Effluent Pump Station

Ribway was selected by the City of Toledo as the prime design and construction management consultant for this new 212 mgd effluent pumping station with five 53 mgd-300 HP variable speed vertical axial flow propeller pumps designed to lift final effluent from the plant to the Maumee River. Project also included a pump control building, 240,000 cubic feet reinforced concrete wet well (75 feet wide, 90 feet long and 35 feet deep with bay walls for each pump), effluent channel, dewatering pumps, gates, miscellaneous piping, instrumentation and controls. The suction and discharge piping is 42-inch diameter. The wet well and building is supported on deep piling foundation. The pump station is designed to discharge treated effluent to the Maumee River during high river stages. As part of the design process, Ribway performed an extensive hydraulic analysis to ensure that upstream process units were not compromised during operation. Design of the station is in accordance with the Hydraulic Institute Standards. A full scale model was built and tested prior to construction.
