Protecting water quality through measurement, control, and compliance.
The Water & Wastewater industry is fundamental to public health, environmental protection, and sustainable development. It encompasses drinking water treatment, wastewater treatment, reuse, and environmental discharge systems.
Due to its direct impact on human life and ecosystems, this industry is among the most heavily monitored and regulated globally.
Water and wastewater treatment processes require continuous monitoring of water quality, process performance, asset health, and regulatory compliance to protect public health and the environment.
The following sensors are commonly deployed across different monitoring areas in water and wastewater systems, depending on treatment stage, process design, and regulatory requirements.
Water quality monitoring is governed by strict national and international standards. Continuous monitoring and data logging are mandatory in many jurisdictions.
Industrial IoT enables real-time visibility into water quality, automated process control, predictive maintenance, and remote compliance reporting.
In the Water & Wastewater industry, sensors are guardians of life. Accurate sensing ensures that water is safe to drink, safe to reuse, and safe to return to the environment.
