Building blocks of an IoT-based water quality management system comprises an intelligent network of sensors, meters, microcontrollers, communication channels, application servers, databases, and customized software. These together ensure smart water management that empowers enterprises to leverage the benefits of big data analytics, cloud adoption, and mobile computing to get actionable insights and reduce costs.
Sensors/ Water meters / Controllers transmit the data captured to either the mobile device or directly to the server through various communication channels like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or GPRS network. Mobile devices fetch the data from the server or the sensors to display it in the application. The Server hosts web services that are consumed by the software. These customized mobile applications include data management features, advanced data analytics, and alert systems based on the monitored parameters. The choice of the parameters to be monitored and the communication channel to be used depends on the requirement of the application.
are extensively used for tracking diverse parameters like microbial quality, pH, salinity, total hardness, turbidity, conductivity, or quantity of Manganese, Chloride, Nitrite, Phosphonate, Calcium, pressure, temperature, the flow of water, level of water, dissolved oxygen, etc. in water. Meter readings are automatically tracked in real-time and periodically sent to the network of cloud servers. This ensures higher accuracy while eliminating the need for manual intervention. Controllers are the devices used to periodically update test results received from sensors on a separate database. For example, a controller will send a result every 15 mins to a designated server.
Another usage of wastewater treatment in IoT can be to have a smart water sensor to measure the amount of residual chemical after treatment. This can be used to calculate the efficiency of the selected treatment process and ensure that the released amount of chemicals stay within permissible limits.
