Smart Sewer

STORMGUARD is the solution deployed by Adasa for data-driven decision making to optimise the integrated operation of sewerage systems, drainage networks and wastewater treatment plants, minimising discharges and preventing flooding.

The added value we bring in real-time monitoring of the entire system is:

1. Intelligent flow distribution: using the digital twins, we can suggest to the operator how to operate the network to obtain certain operating conditions (e.g. levels in the tanks and pumping wells, level of delivery from the collectors).
2. Intelligent capacity optimisation: to optimise the management of water supply from the storm tanks to the collectors according to the actual situation of the whole network (quality of water entering and leaving the treatment plants, level in the collectors, weather forecast).
3. Adaptive pump operation: The digital twin creates operating instructions to achieve the desired conditions. We integrate economic factors (cost of electricity) with the constraints of hydraulic and hydrological models.
4. Predictive capacity management: We determine the treatment capacity that the plant will have under specific operating conditions (quantity and quality). We can adjust the operation of the plant to find the optimal point of treatment capacity without violating regulatory discharge limits.
5. Additional stormwater treatment on demand: StormBLOX is a robust, high-performance treatment system for CSO/SSO events, ensuring consistent effluent quality despite influent variability.
