s::can technology is used to monitor drinking water in real-time in the distribution network of Tarragona, Spain. Stations monitor up to 8 parameters (UV254, turbidity, color, TOC, DOC, free Cl, conductivity, pH & Temperature) together with event detection software based on UV-Vis spectral alarms which are sent to EMATSA. Background…
Groundwater is in danger in many countries due to agricultural overfertilization and liquid manure. Water associations use s::can products to monitor the groundwater supply in real-time and to take immediate countermeasures against contaminations. Background A massive overfertilization of the fields, due to farming, has increasingly endangered groundwater for decades. Alarming…
spectro::lyser titanium pros mounted on buoys are used for marine environmental monitoring in China. Ningbo University’s College of Ocean researches offshore area organic pollution. The s::can system provides them with reliable real-time data about the quality of the seawater. Background The Xiangshan Harbor is located on the coastline of Zhejiang.…
s::can’s ammo::lyser monitors and controls aeration blowers using NH4-N, improving the plant’s energy efficiency and lowering operational costs. Background The J.D Phillips Water Resource Recovery Plant came online in 2007 to help the city of Colorado Springs meet increasing service demands. The state of the art facility is enclosed to…
A s::can system at a wastewater treatment plant in El Gouna, Egypt is used to enable modeling and dynamic simulation of different biological processes. With the help of the results, innovative solutions allowing capacity increases of existing WWTPs can be evaluated. Background The wastewater of the growing tourist city El…
See how the City of Mebane (N.C.) was able to improve plant process and meet nitrogen and phosphorus limits with increased instrumentation. As part of a pilot program, the plant installed a s::can probes for ammonia, pH, temperature and nitrate. TPO Treatment Plant Operation
Presently there is an increasing interest in the role of flux and transformations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in inland waters. These fluxes are crucial components in the landscape carbon budgets and the DOC quality is tightly linked with a large number of elements such as nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P),…
s::can’s spectro::lyser monitors and controls the dosing of chemicals to reduce H2S, improving the efficiency of the dosing, diminishing the odor problem, protecting the environment and lowering the operational costs. Background County of Santa Cruz discharges raw sewage to its wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). Some of the mains have long…
s::can’s event detection system monitors the groundwater quality of 176 raw water sources 24 hours a day. Background Bratislava Water Company (BVS) is responsible for the operation of water and wastewater systems of Bratislava, the capital of the Slovak Republic, supplying safe drinking water to a population of over 600,000.…
