CRYSTAL AWARD
An ammonia control project using DO/Nmaster and SRTmaster was chosen as one of the ten best 2020 projects in the water and waste industry. 2020 December issue of the Water and Waste Digest (WWD) on pages 26, 27 describes the project. Interview of the project participants could be viewed using the WWD website. Read more...
FLOW CONTROL MAGAZINE
November 2020 issue of the Flow Control magazine published our paper about using machine learning (Big Data) methods for achieving accurate control of airflow. Until now, this accuracy could be achieved only using linear valves that up to 100 times (!) more expensive than traditionally used butterfly valves. Read more...
SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA
Since the begining of 2020 each of five largest wastewater treatment plants succefully operate SRTmaster for activated sludge control.
WEFTEC 2019
WEFTEC 2019 paper discusses the application of various model predictive control methodologies to ammonia and dissolved oxygen controls using DO/NmasterTM as an example. DO/NmasterTM saved City of Chico 47% energy, reduced nitrate by 25% and reduced effluent TSS below 5mg/l. These are additional improvements on top of the improvements delivered by SRTmasterTM earlier. Model Predictive Control Saves 47% of Energy, Improves Nutrient Removal and Reduces Effluent TSS
WEFTEC 2016
WEFTEC 2016 paper describes a twenty-year experience of SRTmasterTM design and operation. Twentieth anniversary of real time sludge age control.pdf
Victor Valley Water Reclamation Authority
In the paper presented at the CWEA conference 18MGD BNR Plant staff reported that SRTmasterTM helped to increase plant capacity by 30% and reduce pumping energy.
RS Pump Station
Optimization of start/stop schedule and speeds of the VFD motor saved more than $50,000 in energy bills (30% reduction) and considerably reduced carbon footprint of that facility.
