Waste Water Treatment Plant in Adamuz, Villafranca and Villa del Río
At the Waste Water Treatment Plant in Adamuz, Villafranca and Villa del Río we took part in designing a remote controlled system, distribution control and SCADA monitoring up to the implantation and set in motion.
Description
For Adamuz we built two systems for waste collection and two waste water treatment plants with extended aeration system.
Concerning Villafranca de Córdoba, works involved building a 3,500 metres long sewer pipe (400 and 250 mm diameter) and a waste water plant. The technology used to treat waste water was extended aeration and provides this service to the equivalent of 5,800 inhabitants.
Works in Villa del Río consisted of building a 3,980 metres long sewer pipe (400 and 250 mm diameter) and a waste water treatment plant. Likewise, using extended aeration technology. In this case, it provides service to 9,400 equivalent population.
Needs
A management and motoring system of the electrical-mechanical equipment is essential in any waste water treatment plant as well as energy control and management for its use.
Sensors, meters and water catchment elements need installing in order to record physical parameters that define the type and behaviour of the plant.
Solution
For all the waste water treatment plants and related pumping, we carried out the design, implantation, programming and setting of management systems based on PLCs by Siemens® in motion, and SCADA WinCC by Siemens® for monitoring and recording as well as the installation of sensors and measuring equipment in order to manage these treatment plants correctly.
We designed a safe remote control and radio link system to communicate with the related pumping stations of the Waste Water Treatment Plants as well as an overall integrated SCADA for supervision.
Benefits
Reusing waste water for agriculture and irrigation is its main benefit as well as overall monitoring and supervision for effective and efficient management and prevention of any failures that might stop the operation in the facilities.
