Water Quality Monitoring System Online Real Time Water Quality Monitoring System for Industrial treatment Plant, River Bodies, Aqua Farming.
Why Monitor Water Quality?

Aquaculture is a major source of livelihood for a large number of farmers in the world. The growth of the fish in the water is heavily dependent on the water quality parameters. The oxygen depletion in the water is one of the most common causes of fish deaths. The Dissolved Oxygen (DO) concentration in aqua farm changes rapidly. Over a matter of hours, or sometimes even minutes, DO can change from optimum to lethal levels. No other critical environmental variable in fish culture is so dynamic. Other parameters like Ammonia helps in optimizing the feed, growth, and health.

The cities around the world are growing rapidly leading to huge municipal waste and household sewage. The growth is unsustainable in the absence of sewage or municipal wastewater treatment. The Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) removes contaminants and makes water reusable for a variety of household and industrial purposes. It is critical that the quality of water post the treatment is measured continuously to ensure that water is safe for intended usages.

Most industries like pharmaceutical, chemical, metal, mining, textile, tannery, and food use water in the production process. The water coming out of the process is contaminated and not safe for reuse or discharge. The effluent treatment plant removes the contaminants in the processed water and makes it safe for reuse or discharge to surface water bodies. Some industries are adopting zero liquid discharge. The continuous monitoring of the quality of processed water is critical and mandated by regulatory authorities responsible for pollution control around the world.

The rivers and lakes are a major source of water for irrigation and drinking. The surface water bodies also support biological life important for the sustainability of our ecosystem. There are numerous sources of pollution such as human feces, industrial waste, agriculture waste, river dumping, marine dumping, oil pollution, etc. The water pollution endangers biological life as well as causes various waterborne diseases in humans. The continuous water quality monitoring of rivers and lakes is important for a sustainable life.

Swimming is a competitive sport and regular swimming offers huge health benefits. Swimmers spend a long time in the water, therefore its important to maintain the right quality of water in the pool. Luxury hotels and resorts also have swimming pools to entertain their guests. The values of Ph, Alkalinity, and Hardness should be maintained at the desired level for balanced pool water. The continuous monitoring of these parameters allows the timely intervention of chemicals and keeps the users happy.

The cooling tower is an integral part of every modern-day commercial and industrial building. It extracts heat from wide range of industrial processes and air conditioning systems. Poor quality of water used in the cooling tower can lead to corrosion, scaling, biological growth resulting in higher energy consumption, equipment damage, unwarranted breakdown, and losses. A continuous water quality monitoring system can greatly help in maintaining correct water quality and ensuring timely interventions for the efficient operation of the cooling tower.
Working Principle Of Water Quality Monitoring System
STREAM – A smart water quality monitoring system from Aeron has mainly three components. 1) Sensors, 2) Smart Controller, 3) HMI/Cloud platform. The sensors based on UV, Optical, and other technologies measure the quality parameters of water and provide analog and digital signals.
The smart controller is the heart of STREAM which connects with sensors and acquires signals, converts to digital and processes the data, applies algorithms and finally presents the water quality data to the user on HMI / Display and sends it to the cloud. The data received on the cloud is analyzed and shown to the user in meaningful values and graphs.

Smart Water Quality Monitoring System

Introducing STREAM, a smart water quality monitoring and management system. It allows you to monitor and control the pollution in water sources. Needless to mention water is among the five basic needs of life on planet earth. STREAM allows you to be responsible consumer.
Based on latest technology sensors and controller, the STREAM is next generation smart system for wide variety of water quality monitoring requirements. The sensors work on UV, Optical and other advance technologies for the real-time measurement of water quality parameters.
The sensors connect with smart controller which captures the data with high precision multiple times every second, applies advance algorithm on the data and makes it available to user on various platforms. User can access the data on local display, desktop PC and mobile.
The STREAM is available in three variants for installations in different operating environment. The unique design offers reliable operation for long time.



Measured Parameters

Aeron’s STREAM series smart water quality monitoring system has wide range of latest optical and UV technology based sensors with fast response time, compact size and low maintenance.
Product Variant


Inline (I+)
The Inline variant is installed in the bypass line of the treated water flowing out of water treatment plants like ETP, STP, and WTP. The system can be installed indoor as well as outdoor near the treatment plant. The system’s modular design allows quick release of sensors for easy maintenance and calibration. The HMI display shows real-time parameter values. The I+ can be mounted on the ground as well as on the wall depending on the site condition. I+ has two primary subsystems, Smart Sensor Unit (I+S2U) and Smart Controller (I+S2C). The sensors are housed in the I+S2U and the controller along with HMI is housed in I+S2C
Submerged (S+)
The Submerged version of STREAM is used for the water quality measurement in stored water, processing tanks, pond, and other submerged applications. The S+ has two primary components, the Smart Sensor Unit (S+S2U) and Smart Controller (S+S2C). The sensor unit is submerged in the water with the help of rope while the controller is installed near the tank. The controller is either mounted on the wall or on a fixed pole depending on the site conditions, suitable accessories are offered with the system.






Floating (F+)
The Floating variant is a perfect choice for aquaculture, river water quality, lake, and other water bodies. The F+ is a self-contained system with its own solar power pack for independent and continuous operation. The system contains a Smart Sensor Unit (F+S2U) and Smart Controller (F+S2C). The sensor unit designed on the modularity concept is a quick-release independent unit for easy maintenance and calibration of sensors. While floating in the water, the F+ remains fastened to the shore with the help of a rope. The Floating variant is made of corrosion-proof material for long life in seawater, brackish water, and river water.
Advantages
Communication Options

Wifi
Wi-Fi communication is useful for indoor industrial installations including when the installation is underground and mobile networks cannot be reached.

Ethernet
Ethernet is the best option where Wi-Fi or Cellular is not feasible.

Cellular (4G)
Data transmission from a remote location over a high-speed 4G network. It supports 2G and 3G networks as well.

RS485 MODBUS
When you need to send the data to PLC or RTU, the RS485 MODBUS is the preferred communication option
