WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT RESOURCES

• The Water Council Wants To Find Your Next Great Technology

  A new initiative will test the theory that some of the next great water technologies are right under our noses, without us even realizing it.

• Understanding The Limit Of Detection

  Accurate low-level turbidity monitoring requires a deep understanding of detection limits and the variables affecting measurement sensitivity. Learn how refined laboratory techniques and standardized spiking protocols ensure precision in demanding water treatment applications.

• Smart Networks Smoothing Supply Of Water

  With increasing and urbanizing population, extreme weather events happening with greater frequency, aging infrastructure and work forces, more demanding customers, and significant revenue constraints, it is becoming increasingly difficult for water utilities to ensure that supply consistently meets demand.

• On The Rise: Quality Of Water, Quality Of Life — From Northeast U.S. To Central Africa

  Bbanda is a small rural village of about 1,100 people in southern central Uganda, located 45 minutes from the closest town of Mityana. There is no electricity or reliable source of drinking water. But thanks to the work of some engineering students, that’s about to change.

• The 4 Pillars Of Control Room Operator Effectiveness

  With more water and wastewater utilities, as well as industrial facilities, moving toward digitalization, it’s important to understand the needs of data gatekeepers and decision-makers to set them up for success.

• Benefits Of Remote Access To Primary Wastewater Treatment

  A real-world, industrial application of remote process monitoring proves that a little technology can go a long way in terms of cost savings and process improvement.

• Can The Internet Of Things Lower AMI Solution Cost?

  Low-power wide-area networks are critical to the Internet of Things but may also work to bring advanced metering infrastructure to the masses.

• Kingfisher RTUs Installed In Ventura River County System

  The Ventura River County Water District in Ojai, California required a new SCADA system but they were keen to ensure that a computer did not have the ultimate destiny in the dispatch of very necessary alarms.

  The customer wanted a solution that provided “fail safe” operation whilst minimising the impact of single and multi component failures during system operation. Here, the business challenge was to reduce downtime and improve efficiency and situational awareness for the Ventura River County Water District.

• Integrating Safety And Process Environments

  Using a single programmable controller such as Schneider Electric’s M580 Safety Controller to manage both process and safety systems can help speed up deployment, improve reliability and sustainability of operations, enhance cybersecurity, and support greater productivity and transparency.

• Water Stewardship- Because Everyone Is A Water Manager

  Smart water technology has evolved the water utility’s role within municipalities to have a seat at the proverbial Smart City table, participate in the IoT plan, and drive water stewardship. There are many benefits to replacing your meter system with AMI (Advanced Meter Infrastructure) technology. For the utility, the game-changer is when you couple it with meter data management software which streamlines and prioritizes data so you can make timely, informed decisions.
