WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT RESOURCES

• Accurate Measurement Of Sewage Flow Made Possible By Clamp-On Technology

  Read about how Welsh Water sought innovative solutions, exploring clamp-on technology for accurate sewage flow measurement.

• Midwestern Utility Takes Data Collection From Manual To Automatic

  Read how a publicly owned electric, gas, and water utility taps FreeWave Technologies for new connectivity and edge data collection solution, and achieves immediate, significant results. 

• A New Approach To Early Biofilm Detection

  To assist industrial operators in managing and preventing biofilm, Italian start-up ALVIM Srl created a monitoring system that provides early warning detection of bacterial biofilm growing on pipelines, tanks, heat exchangers, RO membranes, and other equipment.

• Using Digital Twin Technology For The Hartford Clean Water Project

  Discover how the use of new smart technologies helps the Clean Water Project team better protect neighborhoods and local waterways through real-time monitoring of sewer system overflows, further driving digital transformation in one of America’s most historic cities.

• The Full SCADA Deal: The Benefits Of Adopting A Complete SCADA System Over A Sophisticated RTU-Based Solution

  For over a decade, The Bahamas Water and Sewerage Company (BWSC) faced significant service challenges on the Island of New Providence. These included a lack of centralized monitoring and control for the island’s primary water treatment and distribution system, as well as limited reporting, alarming and remote access.

• Smart Antenna Technology For AMI

  When several years of drought subsided and water restrictions were lifted this spring for the city of Round Rock, Texas, residents quickly returned to their pre-drought usage patterns—and as they watered their lawns, filled their pools and used water the way they had before the drought, their monthly bills began to rise. The utility billing office started getting calls from a number of the 33,000 homes and businesses throughout Round Rock.

• Case Study: YSI Multiparameter Instruments Assist In Storm Water And Combined Sewer Overflow Monitoring

  The city of Indianapolis, Indiana has been monitoring surface water quality of the White River and its tributaries since 1991. Each year the Indianapolis Office of Environmental Services (OES) collects nearly 6,000 samples from 27 locations. Two specialized programs, Continuous Dissolved Oxygen and Critical DO, are designed to collect data during periods when the potential exists for dissolved oxygen problems
• AI Could Solve America's Infrastructure Problem. Institutions Need To Let Engineers Use It.

  The state of America’s crumbling infrastructure continues to be a perennial concern as the scale of the problem continually outpaces both the funding and the human resources needed to solve it. Engineers have the solution — AI systems that offer unprecedented speed and potential cost savings — but to leverage its full potential, engineers need to take on a new role — and potentially a new business model.
• Water Utilities Become Smarter In Tackling Scarcity

  Utilities around the world face ever-increasing demand for water as a result of population growth, ongoing urbanization, and rapidly growing economic activity in areas where water supply is already limited.

• Applying Data-as-a-Service To The Wastewater Sector

  A major concern with real-time monitoring networks is the accuracy and reliability of data. In 2017, the Smart Water Networks Forum (SWAN) surveyed 23 global water utilities about their Big Data management practices as part of a Water Research Foundation (WRF) study, including their barriers to adoption.
