Automated Effluent Consent Monitoring – ‘Cracking The Mogden Formula’
Discharges into the sewerage system produced in the course of a trade or industry require a trade effluent consent. Management of these consents is strictly enforced through law and is highly regulated by each UK Water Utility who use them to calculate effluent charges to each organisation using the Mogden Formula. Understanding discharge parameters from the effluent stream is important to ensure consents are not breached as well as minimising the cost of raw material loss.
Typical parameters that are found in trade effluent consents include pH, temperature, Ammonia, Sulphates, COD, BOD, and Suspended solids.
As UK experts in water analysis, Camlab have recently announced a new development from MANTECH that will test all of these parameters in one device by integrating the innovative PeCOD™ technology into the established MANTECH platforms.
This allows for full effluent consent monitoring together in one platform. Modular in design and easily expandable, this complete monitoring system can be installed in your laboratory, alongside the water treatment plant via ‘At-line’™ or directly into the effluent stream. This proven MANTECH technology is completely software driven allowing for auto calibration and automated QC checks for all parameters ensuring accurate and precise results with a complete audit trail.
Having a constant stream of data allows full control of outflow to comply with critical consent levels thus avoiding the risk of penalty charges, reducing the cost of waste and improving the manufacturing process through a better understanding.
Camlab Ltd have successfully installed and implemented a number of these new systems in the UK providing valuable effluent data for their customers without the need to make major changes to process controls in manufacturing to optimize effluent treatment. Application is diverse with systems being installed in chemical manufacturing, the car industry, food and beverage and industrial producers. All customers have made operational savings as a result of the system installation with one identifying a number of major process leaks as they occurred saving over £100,000 in potentially lost product.
Come and find us on stand 15 &16 at this year’s WWEM exhibition to discuss your trade effluent management and how we can help you with the MANTECH range of systems. Reader Reply Card No.
New GPRS Logger for Remote Sites
Isodaq Technology will feature their new Tadpole GPRS logger, which sets new standards for monitoring remote sites in harsh environments. Tadpole’s unique enclosure fits inside 50mm piezometer tubes making it easy to deploy for water level/quality logging. The logger is sealed for life but SIM cards and batteries are field exchangeable. Data is delivered to your desktop PC via either telemetry server software or the Timeview web-site. Tadpole helps you to reduce the long-term cost of monitoring—lower installation costs, fewer site visits and less carbon footprint, with data delivered to your desktop whenever needed.

Air, Gas and Liquid Pumps for all Monitoring and Analytical Applications
Nitto Kohki will be presenting, on WWEM Stand 126, their full range of air, gas and liquid pumps designed to cope with the extremes of all types of monitoring and analytical applications.
The types of technology employed within their designs range from standard DC & AC diaphragm pumps with voltage and wetted material options through their “Linear Shuttle” technology offering unsurpassable lifetimes, through to their unique “Bimor” Piezoelectric pump that doesn’t have any moving parts!
Additionally, they will be showing some new pumps for the first time including the DP0410 pump. It offers up to 18l/min air flow and 1.8bar pressure at 12vDC.

New Non-Contact Microwave Radar Level Transmitter
VEGA will be exhibiting their new non-contact microwave radar level transmitter for the UK water and environmental sectors, designed specifically for a wide range of water level measurement applications. Radar delivers cost savings by reducing engineering needed for existing level technologies, higher billing accuracy, reliability reducing maintenance costs of instruments, yet with a price comparable with that of an ultrasonic system. Also featured will be innovative level and pressure measurement solutions, including self contained GSM/GPRS sensors, battery and solar powered options for level and pressure monitoring at remote sites. Also, the 3 year warranty on VEGA products delivers peace of mind. Come and see us on Stand 21 at WWEM.

Cameras Help Protect Assets and Monitor Processes
SeSys’s high resolution digital IP cameras enable utility companies to protect assets and monitor processes.
Monitoring of remote sites/equipment is carried out real-time with video streamed via web-browser, smartphone or any internet device. Control-centre staff are alerted to problems via alarms - based on motion, sound, light or other triggers - delivered via email.
SeSys cameras can ensure compliance with legislation and document processes (e.g. time-lapse videos), and reduce time, money and carbon footprint by fewer visits to remote sites.
Cameras are rugged, anti-vandal and weatherproof (IP65), with ATEX systems for hostile environments, e.g. Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs).
Reader Reply Card No. Effluent Compliance Workshop
At stand 59, Endress+Hauser will exhibit their new revolutionary B 200 ultrasonic, time-of-flight biogas flowmeter that is designed specifically for the measurement of biogas and land-fill gas. Also on display will be a selection from their range of analytical products designed for water & wastewater applications. The range includes innovative devices such as Memosens digital pH sensors and the unique online BOD analyser with an integral bioreactor. Endress+Hauser’s Memosens sensors are the ideal choice for reliable and accurate measurement, eliminating the problems of moisture ingress, leakages, and corrosion.
Moreover, Endress+Hauser will give visitors the opportunity to participate in a workshop on ‘Effluent compliance utilising optimised instrumentation’. This will be held in room 4 between 12:00 – 12:30 on Thursday 8 November.
