Industry: Waste Water
Project type: Automation & Process Control

Dematec provided the process control and automation works for a waste water plant commissioned for a new development in the Barossa Valley. Beyond the usual process control and telemetry systems, the plant featured an automated diversion system for directing excess inflow (typically caused by illegal stormwater dumping to the sewer) into the disused settling pond for exceptional event coverage. This system was battery backed to allow operation even in the event of a power outage thereby eliminating the risk of overflow from the process plant.
