Technologies

NeoTech: UV reactor with reflectance material Patented UV reflector increasing the UV performance Validated to US EPA and US NSF potable water standards for UV disinfection 10 to 50 times UV dose (fluence, mJ/cm2) per watt of energy input compared to stainless steel Flow rate 90m3/h and can achieve 3 log inactivation of Cryptosporidium

Syrinix – Continual, automated monitoring of trunk mains TrunkMinder is a fixed system that continually monitors the trunk main for small leaks that could escalate into bursts. Sensors are positioned in pairs and the section of pipeline between the sensors are protected. TrunkMinder is usually used where the trunk main is positioned near important infrastructure, such as hospitals, main roads, railways. Successful trials have been undertaken with Thames Water and Severn Trent Water 11/11/2018

i20 Water: Advanced pressure management Advanced pressure management to reduce leaks and bursts Continually monitors and controls output pressure of a PRV Maintains pressure at the critical point of a DMA/Pressure zone Replacement of pilot valve with developed controller Sensor at critical point communicating with pilot valve Algorithms updated daily to ensure continuous pressure management 42 installations in the UK saving on average 20% leakage per DMA 21
