Your challenges

Clients face a range of challenges related to undue inflows, which can impact system performance, operational costs, and regulatory compliance.

Increased Treatment Costs

Extra water inflow leads to higher volumes at wastewater treatment plants, increasing energy, chemical, and operational costs.

System Overload and Risk of Failures

Excess inflow can overload pipes and pumps, leading to backups, flooding, or damage to infrastructure.

Regulatory Compliance Risks

Clients may face fines or penalties if undue inflows cause untreated discharges or exceed permitted limits.

Detection Difficulties

Identifying sources of undue inflows (stormwater, groundwater, illegal connections) is technically complex and may require specialized equipment.

How does it work ?

Quantify Excess Volumes

Our approach begins with quantifying excess volumes by identifying the sources and causes of undue inflows, allowing for precise and targeted analysis.

Our positive impact

Addressing undue inflows delivers significant benefits, improving operational efficiency, reducing costs, ensuring compliance, and enhancing the overall performance and sustainability of the wastewater system.

Operational Efficiency

Reduced overloads in the sewer network and treatment plants, leading to smoother system operation.

Cost Savings

Lower energy, chemical, and maintenance costs due to decreased wastewater volumes.

Regulatory Compliance

Minimized risk of fines or penalties by preventing untreated discharges and staying within permitted limits.

Data-Driven Decision Making

Flow monitoring and source identification provide actionable insights for ongoing system management.
