  1. 5 Emerging Technologies Making a Splash in the Water Sector The Earth’s surface is about 80% water, but only a tiny portion of that water is drinkable. Freshwater sources are finite and continually threatened by infrastructure, agriculture, pollution, and more. Without intervention,

  2. droughts could become commonplace, and thirst will supersede hunger as the most significant humanitarian concern. Luckily, water engineers and other experts are innovating water sector technologies to help address the international water crisis. Utilizing SCADA Systems in Wastewater Management Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) monitoring software maximizes time and intel while reducing costs. SCADA uses field instruments like flowmeters to provide plant operators with real-time data about the state of their industrial equipment. For instance, flowmeters are strategically placed throughout a plant and continually record and transmit data to a central hub. The hub notifies operators of chemical impurities, leaks, overflows, and other risks to avert further contamination. Automated SCADA systems reduce expensive downtime while ensuring a community’s wastewater management equipment is in tip-top shape. For a quality SCADA system, industry professionals should partner with Telstar Instruments, highly-trained experts who have served California’s wastewater industry for over forty years. Employing Nutrient Recovery Technology in Agriculture Runoff from agricultural fields spreads water pollutants, such as phosphorus-rich fertilizers. Phosphorus is a naturally occurring nutrient in soil that promotes crop growth. Phosphorus-heavy fertilizers are great for the harvest but less so for the water supply. Excess phosphorus is environmentally unfriendly as it increases the risk of algal bloom—a phenomenon in which algae quickly takes over the surface of a water body, choking fish and plants. In light of these environmental risks, industries have begun recovering nitrogen and phosphorus runoff from streams and prioritizing the use of safer fertilizers.
