As urbanisation continues to expand, managing stormwater run-off has become increasingly challenging. From flooding and pollutant-laden runoff to overwhelmed drainage systems, residential, commercial, and industrial developments are feeling the strain.

In larger commercial developments, there is often the requirement for one or more pump stations when liquid is unable to be discharged under gravity. These devices act as a holding chamber to collect stormwater, sewage or another wastewater. The pump stations then transport the waste for reuse or disposal by utilising transfer pumps.

Stormwater is the rainfall that runs off impervious or saturated surfaces in urban environments, such as roofs, roads, pavements, and carparks, as well as gardens and parklands. In natural environments, rainwater infiltrates the soil where it can be absorbed by vegetation, or evaporates into the atmosphere. In cities, however, this natural cycle is interrupted, and instead stormwater run-off collects sediment and gross pollutants before flowing into waterways

Without effective stormwater management or treatment, stormwater can cause problems on and off site through erosion and the transportation of nutrients, pollutants, litter and sediment into our waterways.
