water treatment plants

Water treatment plants use redundancy to increase plant availability, specifically process continuation, which is costly and space demanding.

Water treatment plants: our offering

	Stable operations: thanks to 24/7 continuous condition monitoring and health prediction
	Maximum component lifetime: exploit the remaining useful life of components thanks to artificial intelligence (AI) and reduce waste
	Simple and safe operation: thanks to the intuitive and user-friendly interface
	Integration into your system: present analysis result in your control system, e.g. show trends in Remec's Sambesi
	Highest level of data protection: autonomous and passive AI-system, independent of your IT or control software

Costs - benefits: amortization of the Mechmine solution in 3 to 20 months

In waste water treatment plants (WWTP), plant availability, strictly speaking process reliability, is traditionally achieved through redundancy. This comes at a price: each machine in multiple versions means more space and higher investment costs. The cost of an additional process line, i.e. increased redundancy, can be estimated at around CHF 1 million and is subject to capacity. Another example: if the sludge stacking time in an WWTP is 72 hours, then there are three days left to get a subsequent centrifuge running after its breakdown. Depending on the type of defect, this is tight, e.g. if the manufacturer is located abroad. Here, of course, the sludge pile container could be enlarged or a spare parts depot could be established. Spare parts for a centrifuge, for example, easily tie-up CHF 150,000 in capital. A larger sludge container takes up more space and costs more. Alternatively, increased operational safety can be achieved using machine monitoring.
