Lift Stations
IGM - IMET® Grease Module

Installed directly into lift station waterbody

​IMET® Grease Module (IGM), when installed in the existing lift station infrastructure creates a nearly 100% aerobic environment. Anaerobes become dormant, and the lift station becomes aerobic. Aerobes produce odorless CO2, SO2, NO2, NO3, and H2O, eliminating bad odors previously produced by anaerobic microorganisms.

 

Additionally, the large surface area in the IGMs grow significant populations of bio-diverse micro-organisms that partially consume the dissolved bio-waste in the wastewater. Floating bio-solids are significantly reduced, and the need for pumping is minimized or eliminated.

Before IGM

Key Benefits

  • Nearly 100% aerobic system 
  • Eliminates bad odors (H₂S) to negligible levels
  • Minimizes floating grease and maintains lines free of grease buildup
  • Continuously inoculates downstream sewer lines with adapted aerobic microorganisms
  • Minimizes or eliminates jetting and pumping

Specifications:

  • IGM.M or IGM.L standard size (custom sizing available for non standard installations)

  • 100-250 watt air pump ​​

  • Stainless steel housing (if necessary)

The IMET® technology is a modular design that is able to fit any new or existing system. IMET Corporation offers customers a solution to meet individual client requirements. The IMET® “drop in” technology is designed to create a nearly 100% aerobic environment in a lift station that allows for fast, lasting results.

 

The IMET® technology provides superior surface area that allows large, diverse populations of micro-organisms to grow and remain in the IMET® module. Coupled with superior aeration, and a design that utilizes aeration efficiently, the IMET® technology requires less air to achieve maximum results.
