Need help with sump drain design

I have a dry sump and need a valve on the drain. This valve will need to be closed from time to time, and then opened with the sump full. I would like to avoid creating a "valve box" in the concrete, due to the fact that whatever sealant I would use for the box would have to be appropriate for 95% H2SO4. Any experience or suggestions?
