Valley Fine Foods – Wastewater from Food Processing
Project Description
This food processing plant in Benicia, California needed a wastewater lift station to handle combined sewage and process water from the production of pasta. The lift station design included Tsurumi grinder pumps in a duplex configuration. These submersible grinder pumps were included to handle pasta and cheese that occasionally get into the process water. The system electrical controls comprise a standard UL listed panel with float controls for liquid level sensing. The lift station pumps into an existing sewer main and on to treatment.

Why They Chose Romtec Utilities
Advanced Plumbing and Rooter Service worked with Romtec Utilities to get this lift station designed and engineered. Romtec Utilities proposed a very simple and inexpensive lift station design to meet the needs of the Valley Fine Foods processing plant. The Romtec Utilities proposal was different than what was specified in an existing site plan, but Advanced Plumbing was confident that the Romtec Utilities design would operate to meet the same pumping needs but for much less cost. By choosing this approach, Valley Fine Foods and Advanced Plumbing got a fully functional, site-specific wastewater lift station for a much better price than originally planned.
