• Instrumentation Do's And Don'ts For The Water Industry

  To say that instrumentation, automation, and control are key to the modern wastewater industry is somewhat of an understatement.  With growing populations, tighter consent parameters, and the need to do more for less, operational efficiency is more and more important. 

• SWAN Corner: Digital Twin At A 45-Year-Old WWTP

  The multi-award-winning Pukete Wastewater Treatment Plant digital twin project takes the complex and very relevant problem of collecting, integrating, and maintaining information about existing asset stock. It breaks this problem down into smaller, palatable chunks and addresses each component of the problem though the implementation of several technologies. This is underpinned by trust and true collaboration between Beca (the consulting team), EcoDomus (software vendor), and Hamilton City Council (the client).

• Understanding Big Data In The Water Industry

  If you feel like you have too much data but not enough understandable or usable information, fine-tuning data collection and funneling it into an integrated data management system may be the way to become more proactive and make better decisions.

• IoT Cellular Connectivity For Optimizing Water Utilities Management

  Digital transformation allows utilities to go from data drought (and actual drought) to a deluge of efficiency, but security is paramount.

• Georgia City Reaches Beyond Metering With Xylem

  Learn how the Sensus smart utility network allowed Gainesville to improve leak detection and enhance customer service. 

• IoT And Pumps: What You Need To Know

  When it comes to the Internet of Things (IoT), especially in the sometimes conservative water industry, there may be considerable hand-wringing over incorporating IoT into your pump process. Some of the most oft-asked questions — from implementation trends through start-up and ownership — are assembled and answered here.

• Advanced AI Helps Water Treatment Plant Reduce Energy Costs By 15-20%

  A water treatment plant’s operations branch for a North American city is using Emagin AI by Innovyze to reduce the operational expenditure (OPEX) required to deliver high-quality drinking water to its approximately 150,000 residents.
