Success case: implementing Edge technology on waste water treatment stations
CIMICO installs and manages fluidized beds of their own design on wastewater treatment stations, employing biotechnology and other techniques alongside mathematical models tailored to each plant.
Thanks to our Edge solution, they collect variables and signals from PLCs on the plant in real-time, and run their own algorithms on the Edge. Results are published back into the PLC as setpoints, so that treatment plants may steadily & automatically optimize their function as defined by Cimico. Besides, we are now developing a predictive control system for the biological processes in order to further boost efficiency.
Due to the robust cybersecurity of our platform, certified by the spanish National Cryptology Center, CIMICO's initiative has been greenlight by their customers, which belong to a sector with high security exigences, and they now remotely access and manage Edge devices from their offices.
