WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT RESOURCES

• The Role Of AI In Reducing Water Contamination Risks

  Insights gained from artificial intelligence (AI) herald a high-water mark for public protection.
• Understanding The Changes To CWA Test Procedures

  The U.S. EPA has updated the list of approved test procedures that can be used to analyze wastewater for compliance under the Clean Water Act.

• The Benefits Of Flow Measurement Sensors In Smart Water Treatment

  Flow measurement sensors are essential parts of water treatment plants. It’s increasingly common for those products to have Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity. One industry report indicated the intelligent flow meter market will reach $3.1 billion in market worth by 2025, representing a 4.4% compound annual growth rate between 2020 and 2025.

• A Comprehensive Software Tool For Assessing Risk At Wastewater Treatment Plants

  Understanding risk is the first step to combating system failure and protecting the public and the environment from unsafe water.

• The Evolution Of Smart Utilities

  Advances in telecommunications, automation, and data analytics are changing the relationship between utilities and their customers.

• Calibrating Success: Improved Tools To Maintain Flowmeter Accuracy

  Water utilities with highly successful monitoring programs tend to share a common trait: they have a well-defined plan for calibration that emphasizes frequency and tracking. However, when done properly, this process is time-consuming and often leads to unnecessary labor and downtime. The good news is that advanced metering technology is available for plants to get a better handle on the instrument’s performance with significantly less effort.

• Reducing Water Waste And Increasing Reuse With Remote Monitoring And Control

  Now more than ever, it’s time to explore circular water management solutions to prevent loss of the world’s most valuable resource.

• Protecting Against Doomsday Contaminants

  New tools are being developed for worst-case drinking water scenarios: chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN)-related contamination.

• Is It Time For An Intelligent Wastewater Network?

  Mainland Europe has had intelligence in some of its wastewater networks for over ten years now, and some of the oldest real-time control systems in the U.S. date back to the 1980’s. So why has intelligence in the wastewater network not been more abundant?

• Taking Sustainability Into Account, United Utilities In The UK Identifies Combined Solutions Of Both Traditional And SuDS Strategies To Resolve Flooding

  United Utilities (UU) partnered with Optimatics to develop a Sustainable Drainage System (SuDS) Optimization process for flood reduction using the Optimizer platform. They used Optimizer to identify the best overall combination of SuDS conveyance, and storage strategies to solve flooding problems for a wide range of potential scenarios. UU sought to understand the optimal solution between full flooding resolution and partial flooding resolution for a 10-, 20-, and 30-year event, testing SuDS cost sensitivities to measure the impact of a sustainable investment.
