PumpMan buys Alyan Pump
Atlas Copco to acquire Brazil's Itubombas
PumpMan Holdings LLC has completed the acquisition of Alyan Pump LLC, a Folcroft, Pennsylvania, USA-based provider of specialty packaged pump systems and column and submersible sump and sewage packages.
Atlas Copco is buying Itubombas Locação Comércio Importação e Exportação Ltda, a pump rental company based in Itu in the Brazilian state of São Paulo.
Founded in 1955, Alyan serves customers in the municipal, commercial, industrial and residential markets in the Philadelphia area and across the mid-Atlantic region. The company will continue to operate under the Alyan brand. Don Devine, president and CEO of PumpMan Holdings, said: “Alyan is an important next step in building
a national leading specialty packaged pump system and service and repair company focused on the industrial, commercial and municipal water segments.” PumpMan Holdings, a Soundcore Capital Partners LLC portfolio company, was formed in 2016 following the acquisition of Baldwin Park, California-based PumpMan Inc. With roots dating to 1976, PumpMan provides onsite pump system maintenance, repairs and other field services to municipal, commercial, industrial and residential customers. www.pumpman.com www.alyanpump.com
Itubombas rents diesel and electric driven centrifugal pumps to customers in the oil and gas, construction and mining sectors. The company employs about 40 people and had revenues of around BRL18 million in 2016. “The Itubombas brand is well known in the Brazilian market for its high quality and technical expertise,” said Andrew Walker, president of the Atlas Copco Construction Technique business area. “This acquisition will strengthen our rental product offering to customers in this crucial market.”

Construction Technique provides construction and demolition tools, portable compressors, generators and lighting towers as well as pumps. www.atlascopco.com www.itubombas.com.br

Xylem completes emergency sewer bypass in 6 days Xylem Inc has designed and built a major emergency sewer bypass in Memphis, Tennessee, USA in just six days. Unprecedented rainfall during spring 2016 eroded the soil supporting a 96-inch sanitary sewer main that carried wastewater to one of the city’s central treatment plants. Under a City of Memphis Emergency Response Plan, Xylem designed and developed a turnkey bypass solution to maintain sewer services, minimize the environ-
mental impact and ensure regulatory compliance, while the main line was repaired. The bypass system needed to handle 160 million gallons per day (MGD) of peak flow and traverse 2400 linear feet from the suction point to the discharge location. Fourteen Godwin diesel-driven Dri-Prime CD400M pumps, two Godwin hydraulically driven CD300M pumps and nearly 30 000 linear feet of HDPE pipe were commissioned as part of the turnkey bypass, successfully
pumping 60 million–160 million gallons per day of raw sewage. The Memphis project included the construction of a 2400-foot-long,
40-foot-wide road through swamp land, so the site could be accessed. www.xylem.com
