Abstrakt: Sewage pumping stations (SPSs) are an essential part of the sewage system, especially in flat areas such as many cities in Iraq, therefore any delay in operation schedule may be cause flooding in the upstream part of the system. The objective of this study is to evaluate the operating efficiency of the pumps and the fluctuation of sewage flow between the influent and effluent of the sewage pumping stations as an indicator of the operating system inside the station. The methodology of the study includes find the hydraulic analysis, the Performance Index by statistical model and evaluate the efficiency of pumps in Al-Dora SPS. This work suggests and classifies the behavioral of index of SPSs in sewage system using the systematic Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) to collect the data during a period from January to December 2018. Dora sewage pump station position in western part of Baghdad city has been carried out to investigate the operation as real field operation conditions. The critical behavioral of the sewage pumps has examined and analyzed to observe the pumps involved in this station. The achieved results showed flooded, emergency, a good and very good performance which evaluates the SPS using Artificial neural network (ANN) with its correlation coefficient (R2 97.5%) of the model and gives a suitable indication that Dora SPS works in good condition, but an overflow is caused by the backup in the inlet sewer. For all these cases, pump efficiency has been identified and provided through this project. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
