Water and Wastewater

Water and Wastewater is one of Novotek’s key service segments across all countries. We’ve completed solutions in this field with our partners in all areas of the water treatment process. We enable customers to remotely control and manage all parts of their network. Novotek is also one of the few companies with extensive experience in radio networks for water treatment plants.

Our solutions for water and wastewater

Continuous Improvement

Your automation platform can be a powerful enabler of more than just individual processes.

Leverage IIoT

Advancements in sensor and comms technology make deploying intelligent devices and control packages easier and less expensive.

Develop Data Strategies

Enabling improved plant operations through comprehensive information that’s easier to analyse and act upon

INSIGHT – Improving operations

Water authorities face high costs for maintaining and upgrading networks while dealing with resistance to increased user charges. Improving operations can provide relief. We assist municipal and industrial water processors with:

Reducing energy usage in treatment and conveyance

Optimising chemical usage

Adapting processes to deal with changes in input water and ambient conditions

Ensuring best-possible performance of energy-from-waste assets

Ensuring consistent, correct execution of standard procedures and exception-handling

This goes beyond simply automating established processes, addressing critical operational needs effectively.

INSIGHT – Taking advantage of the Industrial Internet

Advancements in sensor technology and communications have made deploying intelligent devices and control packages easier and less expensive. We have kept pace by developing solutions that simplify gathering and using information from across your asset base. Our approach ensures maintenance and repair operations stay on track. It helps prove compliance with regulations and optimises operations for efficient use of energy, chemicals, and personnel.

Wessex Water Case Study

Wessex Water turned to Novotek Solutions to migrate the SCADA system at its Avonmouth site to the current GE Intelligent Platforms Proficy iFIX platform

INSIGHT – Unlocking Assets

Your automation platform can be a powerful enabler of more than just individual treatment or conveyance processes. Powerful, open technologies can make it possible to deliver richer information for use in daily operations and to support expansion, or enhancement over time.

Our PACSystems platform delivers power and performance in a rugged, flexible, open manner, featuring:

High availability/redundancy for critical applications

Expandable architectures

Innovative form factors, like the RXi Controller

Upgradeable CPUs

And with a range of I/O options, from traditional, rack-based modules, to modular form factors like RSTi, you can choose the form and style that suits each application.

INSIGHT – Enable collaboration and continuous improvement

Our systems are designed to give you flexibility in the way you deliver everything from simple visualisation through standard operating procedures and supporting work instructions. Proficy Operations Hub from GE Digital is a centralised environment to rapidly build industrial applications (data connectivity, aggregation and visualisation), enabling improved plant operations through comprehensive information that’s easier to analyse and act upon independent of location.

And Proficy Workflow helps you make every worker as good as your best worker – by systematising best practices for daily operations and for exception handling. Able to integrate with other systems both as data sources and to monitor for trigger conditions, Workflow replaces unwieldy paper-based approaches with Electronic Work Instructions – on your desktop or through your mobile devices.
