Report on Pressure Sewerage System. Summer Street Separation Study Area Boston, Massachusetts
This report is the result of a study of the fifty acre Summer Street Separation Study Area of Boston, Massachusetts. The main objective of this report is to evaluate and compare the conventional gravity separation method (the construction of a new gravity sanitary sewerage system) and pressure methods (the construction of new pressure sanitary sewerage systems consisting of pumping facilities and force mains). To complete this objective, present and future sanitary sewage flows have been estimated by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Project Staff. Based upon these estimated flows, the Project Staff prepared three sewer system designs. The following engineering investigations were also conducted: A study of revisions necessary on a typical building to in-house plumbing for separation of storm water and sanitary sewage both for gravity and pressure separation and including a description of the physical problems involved and construction cost estimates for these revisions; A review of the layouts for the system of pressure separation of the entire study area prepared by the Project staff and the preparation of construction cost estimates for the systems. The concept of hanging pressure sanitary conduits within existing combined sewers also has been evaluated. (Author)
