Process Optimisation

Utilising existing instrumentation, we generated cost/unit indicators in the top 25 Wastewater Treatment Works sites for Northern Ireland Water. Our Dashboard informs operations of Process performance as it happens and improves reaction time.

Key drivers and priorities:

  • Process optimisation and control

  • Energy saving

  • Reduce operator interventions

  • Random Sampling being introduced in Northern Ireland in 2027

  • Intelligent Operations Centre (IOC)

  • Carbon Neutral by 2050

Benefits of the Dashboards

  • Predictive Process Control delivering 24 hour optimum operation

  • Gives cost and quality analysis of the biological process

  • Efficient process automatically gives energy and chemical savings

  • Will assist in achieving the targets required for random sampling

  • Data model of optimum plant operating conditions is transferable

How We Developed The Dashboards

Integrated the smart use of new and existing instrumentation.

  • Rolled out and demonstrated predictive process control at Kinnegar with no risk to Northern Ireland Water.

  • Developed commercial model with Northern Ireland Water and installed in 25 wastewater treatment plants along with process reporting and quick wins on power saving.
