Highly advanced drone technology for water pipeline inspections showcased at IFAT
Microplastics detection in environmental waters is focus of new standard ASTM International’s water committee (D19) has approved a new standard that will be used to identify microplastics in environmental water samples.
According to ASTM member and microplastics subcommittee lead William Robberson, P.E., the new test method (D8401) is the fi rst standard that will identify plastic in the environment, and the fi rst that can be used synergistically with other ASTM standards for sample collection and preparation.
“Imagine you’re trying to understand if the water from various sources, such as rivers, lakes, or even your tap water, contains microplastics,” says Robberson. “These microplastics can be harmful to wildlife and potentially humans as well. However, fi nding and measuring these tiny particles in large volumes of water can be tricky because they’re so small and can easily be confused with other materials.” According to Robberson, the new standard provides detailed instructions that scientists and environmental experts can follow to consistently identify and measure the amount of microplastics in water samples.
Robberson notes that the new standard will be most useful to anyone who needs to identify the presence and type of microplastics for risk assessment exposure for public health, environmental justice, and protection. However, the standard will also have applications for microplastics researchers, ecologists, regulatory bodies, and water treatment facilities, among others. This effort directly relates to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #6 on clean water and sanitation, as well as #14 on life below water More information online:

CT2MC is an independent engineering company specialised in the development of innovative robotic products, CT2MC’s vocation, since its creation in 2012 by Olivier Le Meaux, is the development and manufacturing of industrial products combining robotics, innovation, composite materials and automation.
To limit its impact on the environment, CT2MC strives to advance the state of manufacturing techniques and develops processes and products that are more environmentally friendly. The use of bio-sourced materials is part of one of these major axes, as is the choice to base production in France to limit consumption and the impact on resources.
CT2MC manufactures robots for pipe inspections - especially in sewerage water applications, as well as developing, prototyping and manufacturing of robots with composite material integration
They also manufacture several ranges of aquatic drones carrying out environmental monitoring and analysis missions, which are available for sale or rent. The SPYBOAT®
range consists of
aerial propulsion drones, the INN’EAU range is made up of drones with thrust in the water, fl oats, etc. and the CAN’EAU range, which was developed specifi cally for inspections of confi ned spaces (pipes, tanks, etc.).
CT2MC also provide inspection services for surface water or confi ned spaces using the different products in their range.
The company’s innovation and research and development capabilities have been rewarded by several prizes from ADEME (French Ecological Transition Agency). Recently CT2MC’s project to deploy their aquatic drones received an award within the category of “Companies committed to the ecological transition”.
At the recent IFAT Exhibition in Munich, CT2MC showcased their CAN’EAU®
“Rotating Sonar”.
Equipped with high technology, the CAN’EAU® “Rotating Sonar” collects crucial data parameters. This includes inspection of works (ITV): thanks to its 360° camera and several lamps it can make a continuous video recording of the pipe from every angle. In post-processing, the operators can orient themselves in the work as if they were inside it.
Thanks to UWB (Ultra WideBand) positioning beacons the operators of the CAN’EAU®
can situate
themselves and monitor at any specifi c location within the system. This versatile and fl exible device will provide a precise profi le of sedimentation throughout the entire pipeline structure. CAN’EAU® also monitors for gas and will accurately detect the presence of H2
S, CO, O2 and CH4 .
Embedded lidar technology makes it possible to create sectional views of the horizontal and vertical pipes, to carry out 2D sections of pipe and subsequently create a summary 3D reconstruction (without texture). Thanks to photogrammetry, CT2MC products model any type of work in 3D, which can be displayed into GIS. The system also provides an overview of pipeline trajectory: on-board technologies enable generating a fi le X Y Z and georeferenced the work. CT2MC also offer 4 aerial turbines for automatic positioning in driving and visual piloting.

Company’s 900 Series multi-parameter water quality monitor/controller is easy to install, easy to use, and does the job of seven separate instruments single-handedly.
Get a comprehensive real-time picture of solution status with continuous readings from up to seven different inputs: 2 Conductivity/Resistivity/TDS/Salinity; 1 pre-amplifi ed pH/ORP; 1 BNC pH/ORP; 1 fl exible 0-20/4-20 mA; 1 RTD Temperature; and 1 Flow/Pulse. % Rejection is also available as a derived value. For maximum accuracy, the Conductivity/ TDS input measurement functions feature the ability to select the solution type used to model the solution under test: KCl, NaCl, or Myron L’s own 442 Natural Water™ Standard. Or program a “User” solution mode when solution constituents and behavior are known. Temperature compensation is automatic to 25°C but can be disabled by the user as required. The pH/ORP input channel works with Myron L pre-amplifi ed pH and ORP sensors which contain precision circuitry that increases accuracy and permits application of the sensors over greater distances. The 0-20/4-20 mA input allows user-defi ned 0 to full scale values and units of measure for a wide variety of sensor types. Electronic or wet calibrations are easy to perform.

Automatically trigger control equipment and audible signals and continuously report and record solution data with fl exible outputs. The 900 features up to 3 relays; 2 remote alarms; 1 0-20/4-20 mA signal; 1 0-5/0-10 VDC signal; and 1 RS-485 ASCII serial signal. Relays output to any user-supplied control equipment requiring up to 250V each and can trigger on any input parameter. The 0-20/4- 20 mA output can transmit a signal for any input parameter. 0-5/0-10 VDC can be scaled to optimize resolution and can output to a recorder, PLC, SCADA system, etc. 0-1 VDC is possible with optional resistor.
Myron L also backs these instruments up with expert dedicated technical support that assures installation and operation success. More information online:
