• Automation 101: The Dangers Of Hand/Off/Auto

  When we automate we invariably offer our clients and their operations staff the benefit of Hand/Off/Auto functionality for all the components on our systems. To those new to automation it allows an operator or maintenance worker to remove a piece of equipment, like a pump or blower for example, from the oversight and control automated controller (MCC, PLC, etc.) and operate it manually while it is still installed.

• Delivering Digital Water — Are We There Yet?

  The water industry's greatest technology trend is also one with scattershot levels of adoption, but that can change with proper understanding of the purpose for and pathway toward Digital Water.
• Sewer Sense: Smart Decisions About Sanitary Sewer System Is Paying Off For Utility And Customers

  Using a technology called SmartCover Systems, the Prince William County Service Authority is able to remotely monitor wastewater flows in strategic areas across Prince William County. A SmartCover is comprised of a small device that electronically monitors the level of flow in sewer mains from the underside of a manhole cover.

• Denver Water Enhances Operations And Water Quality Studies With Live Modeling

  Denver Water serves 1.4 million people in the city of Denver and the surrounding suburbs. It is the largest — and oldest — water utility in the state of Colorado and its service area covers more than 335 square miles.

• Smart Wastewater Networks, From Micro To Macro

  The journey to “smart” has proven more challenging for wastewater networks than for potable water, but real-world impact is imminent. Learn what potential awaits the industry at monitoring’s latest frontier.

• Water And The Internet Of Things: 2016

  Forecasters predict that California could receive record amounts of rain during this winter because of El Nino. Smart water management is important in times of no rain or too much rain so our conservation efforts must continue. The Internet of Things (“IoT”) can help the water supply from the El Nino rains be used more efficiently and with less waste.

• Integrated Automation For Enhanced Return On Asset Investment

  In operational environments, intuitive, secure and seamless integration is not simply a glue that can link software to control and field devices. It is an enabler of higher quality, greater agility and flexibility, improved asset utilisation, reduced energy consumption, enhanced traceability with reduced compliance costs, as well as reduced risk.

• Monitor And Control Critical Water Infrastructure In Real-Time

  Discover how Contact Automation deployed a FreeWave solution to transform communications capabilities of Sylvan Lake, Canada's water and wastewater operation. 

• InfoWorks ICM Does It For Texas Utilities

  Two wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) in Texas needed hydraulic model assessments. Plant managers needed to ensure their facilities could maintain water flows running at their current capacity and determine whether or not improvements were required. Here are the modeling challenges Freese and Nichols successfully overcome using InfoWorks ICM, ultimately providing finer plans and options for their clients to make confident choices

• Automating Stanley Consultants' Conceptual Design Process For A 1MGD Wastewater Resource Recovery Facility

  The Transcend Design Generator helped Stanley Consultants to automatically ascertain the appropriate sizing requirements for a new Flow Equalization Basin and an extension to the existing Aerobic Digester.
