1. What are water and wastewater?
Water is the primary source of life. It is tasteless, odourless, inorganic, and a transparent chemical substance that falls under one of the main constituents of Earth’s hydrosphere. Even though it provides close to zero organic nutrients or calories, it is essential for all life forms.
However, to utilise used water, also known as wastewater, more efficiently, there is a dire need to modernise core piping and pumping networks and wastewater management solutions.
Schneider Electric aims to bridge the gap between sustainability and progress. Benefits of water and wastewater solutions offered by our experts include increased operational sustainability, lower risk, reduced implementation costs, and a smarter workforce.
2. How can we manage water resources?
Managing water resources can be an overwhelming task for any company or organisation; it deals with developing, planning, distributing, and managing optimal water resources.
Schneider Electric offers a range of water resource solutions to rectify crucial challenges like modernised pipelines and water treatment plants under a limited budget. Delivering sustainable quantities of water and efficient management of infrastructure are our priorities.
Our IoT-enabled platform, EcoStruxure, offers a wide variety of water and wastewater solutions that effectively enhance applications and processes across the water cycle by providing Connected Products, Edge Control, Apps, Analytics, and Services.
3. What do wastewater treatment plants do?
Water treatment plants are responsible for cleansing and purifying water and sewage to be reusable for society in a way that doesn’t damage the environment. In addition, these plants are responsible for restoring oxygen content, removing pollutants and solids, and breaking down organic matter.
Schneider Electric provides diverse solutions for sustainable water treatment plants, including plant management, services, asset performance, electrical distribution, automation and control, and motor control. These solutions, coupled with an intelligent set of software solutions, manage quality, power, information, workforce, and energy that helps you make better and safer decisions.
Water networks
The result of the limited investment is an ageing infrastructure. Providing service levels to consumers and lowering energy costs is also becoming an issue. Increase operational efficiency by using appropriate automation, control technology, and analytics.
