UPWATER® combines unique descriptive algorithms and AI to deliver advanced data analytics, providing precise forecasts and optimized guidance for wastewater treatment plants
About
Wastewater management is often inefficient due to unpredictable events. UPWATER® was created to change that. This digital service leverages unique algorithms and AI to deliver advanced data analytics, providing precise forecasts and optimization strategies for industrial and urban utilities. By enhancing energy efficiency and operational performance, UPWATER® also supports the upcycling of valuable resources, transforming wastewater treatment into a smarter, and more sustainable process.
Key Benefits
- Reduce OPEX, with a particular focus on energy consumption for aeration and chemical/polymer dosing:
- up to 50% reduction in energy consumption per pollutant removed;
- up to 100% elimination of chemical precipitants dosage with optimized biological phosphorus removal;
- up to 20% in polymer dosage in the sludge line;
- Ensure 100% environmental compliance and adapt to new & more stringent regulations.
- Enhance biological process performance, leading to improved pollutant removal.
- Ensure treated water quality that meets standards for safe reuse.
- Reduce Carbon Dioxide emissions.
- Evaluate the economic and technical feasibility of generating new revenue streams from waste management, such as biogas, biofertilizers and bioplastics.
- Support bioprocess engineering or retrofitting of water utilities.
