Clearly a great solution
When Portsmouth Aqua (a division of Portsmouth Aviation) were looking to develop a water purification system, they turned to Grundfos Pumps to work with them to produce a complete engineering solution. The aim was to deliver a unit that could, at the press of a button, produce sustainable clean water.
Developing a product to meet such exacting demands was always going to be a challenge. However, with the expertise and in-depth pump solutions knowledge of their Grundfos contact, Luke Gardener, who applied his 13-years of technical knowledge and application know-how, a precision solution was devised. These units not
only deliver clean water, but the design means that their power consumption and wasted water use are considerably less than other industry equivalents.
Today these sets are capable of supporting a range of applications where the demand to deliver clean, high quality drinking water from a poor-quality water resource, is now a reality. An obvious beneficiary is in humanitarian aid situations where the ability to deliver clean water can be lifechanging. Agriculture and farming will also benefit, along with a wide cross section of industrial and healthcare applications.
This product is sure to be clear winner, as indeed was Luke himself at the recent Pump Industry Awards where he was announced as winner of the coveted title of Engineer of the Year, for his innovative approach and engineering prowess. Visit the Grundfos UK YouTube channel to find out more.
Smart Water Networks - a fixture on the global Aquatech agenda
The Smart Water Networks Forum (SWAN) signed a strategic agreement with Aquatech Global Events to organize Smart Water Pavilions at various events throughout 2019 and beyond. By joining forces Aquatech visitors around the world benefit from specialized knowledge on this topic, saving water and money as the smart water industry continues to gain momentum.
China, Mexico and Amsterdam will feature
pavilions and/or combined with a knowledge program. According to a report by SWAN Member Sensus, utilities could save up to $12.5 billion by implementing smart water systems - the time is now.
Participants in the SWAN-pavilions included Utilis (Israel), Bentley Systems (Ireland), Controlpoint (UK), Watener (Spain), Kamstrup (Denmark), Servelec Technologies (UK), and
