Rural distributed wastewater treatment stations play a critical role in addressing the persistent challenge of untreated sewage in rural areas. Without proper treatment, freely discharged wastewater accumulates over time, degrading the environment and jeopardizing residents’ health. As a key component of rural habitat improvement, these decentralized treatment systems align with China’s “14th Five-Year Plan,” which prioritizes resolving longstanding issues like black, odorous water bodies. By implementing efficient rural distributed wastewater treatment stations, communities can significantly enhance ecological protection while meeting national environmental governance objectives, creating cleaner, healthier living spaces for rural populations.
Rural distributed wastewater treatment stations face the following pain points: ① the scale of each point is small, only about 10~30 tonnes per day; ② more points, it is difficult to carry out unified management of all the points; ③ unmanned operation, so the automation of the treatment station and remote operation and maintenance requirements are higher.
La estación de tratamiento de aguas residuales distribuida rural tradicional suele adoptar PLC para el control general y la operación, lo que requiere un alto nivel de programación para los técnicos, y la operación y el mantenimiento remotos son difíciles de realizar, y la gestión unificada es más difícil.
IOTROUTER para los puntos de dolor anteriores, de acuerdo con la aplicación real de la estación de tratamiento de aguas residuales distribuidas rurales diseñado un conjunto de gabinete de control inteligente de tratamiento de aguas residuales, mejorando en gran medida el nivel inteligente de la estación de tratamiento de aguas residuales distribuidas rurales.
Intelligent Solution for Rural distributed wastewater treatment stations
IOTROUTER utiliza pasarela de computación de borde EG8000 and IO expansion module ET1010 to build an intelligent sewage treatment control cabinet, and combines with the IoT platform IOTRouter Cloud to realise the unified management of sewage points and the remote operation and maintenance of the system.
Using the characteristics of EG8000 to support remote writing commands, combined with ET1010 control extension module, the command is issued through the IOTRouter IoT platform to control the AC contactor in the traditional control cabinet, thus realising the remote control of each production equipment in the wastewater treatment station, and solving the problem that the traditional PLC wastewater treatment control cabinet is unable to be controlled remotely and managed in a unified way. The control cabinet supports access to PH, dissolved oxygen, water level and other sensors, providing real-time collection of sewage monitoring data and data transmission capabilities.
Ventajas del programa
Automated operation: The control cabinet can achieve automated operation, monitoring the status of various devices and sensors inside the pumping station, such as pump current, temperature, pressure, etc., as well as flow, level sewage total nitrogen phosphorus, ammonia nitrogen and other key parameters.
Response low latency: Edge computing can reduce data transmission time, improve response speed and real-time, and effectively improve the response rate of the equipment through data processing on the device side.
Remote operation and maintenance: The control cabinet can be programmed and adjusted remotely according to the demand, and combined with IOTRouter IoT platform to achieve remote intelligent control. It supports intranet penetration to provide users with secure remote management, configuration, upgrading and programming.
Drag-and-drop programming: EG8000mini in the control cabinet provides a browser-based process editor with rich panel nodes, free formation of processes, and one-click deployment and operation.
Disconnection: Edge computing gateway EG8000mini can cache data in case of network anomaly and report data when the network is restored.
Unified management: IOTRouter Cloud can handle the connection and management of millions of devices through clustering, and supports the aggregation of data from multiple devices for unified management of each point.
