Surface Water Pump Station
Build-up of food & fat waste
Yellowstone Environmental Solutions investigated an issue with a combined foul & surface water pump station. They quickly established that the problem was due to a build-up of food and fat waste.
The industrial cleaning crew and a supporting tanker made light work of the job. They high-pressure jetted the pump chamber and its pipework. On completion, a confined space entry was made into the chamber to remove the solidified fats at the base of the station.
All waste was uplifted from the chamber and disposed of a licensed treatment facility under Duty of Care paperwork.

Preventative Maintenance
Regular cleaning
To prevent further fat/food build up, the client has now agreed to a three monthly maintenance programme. This involves high pressure jetting of all interconnecting drainage and a full cleanse of the pump station.
