Case Study: Automating STP Operations in a Tech Park

Industry: Realty

Challenge:

The Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) was entirely manually operated, making it difficult for staff to maintain consistent control over key processes. This led to frequent issues such as tank overflows, recycling of water with high Total Suspended Solids (TSS), and compromised treatment efficiency.

Solution:

The STP was upgraded with an intelligent automation system, including real-time sensors to monitor TSS and water levels continuously. Key components such as pumps, air blowers, and pneumatic valves were automated based on predefined thresholds and rules.

Key Outcomes:

• Overflow Prevention: Automated pump controls proactively manage tank levels, eliminating manual guesswork and preventing overflows.

• Water Quality Assurance: Continuous TSS monitoring ensures that only treated water meeting quality standards is recycled or discharged.

• Operational Efficiency: Automation reduced manual intervention, enabling consistent and optimized plant performance.

• Workplace Safety: Air quality sensors were integrated to monitor toxic gases, improving safety conditions for plant operators.
