Stadtwerke Dusseldorf, the city’s public works department, uses a new state-of-the-art control system based on Wonderware software to help automate the City of Dusseldorf’s waterworks plants.
Part of Stadtwerke Dusseldorf's goal is to reduce cost by improving operations, reporting and analysis
It's easy to understand why Stadtwerke Dusseldorf opted to modernize its control system. It makes sure that the City of Dusseldorf's 600,000 residents have ready access to water that is safe to drink. The system carries about 55 million cubic meters of fresh H2O to households and businesses through a pipe system that extends farther than 1,700 kilometers.
Flehe, Am Staad and Holthausen
The City of Dusseldorf’s water comes from the Rhine River via three plants throughout the region – Flehe, Am Staad and Holthausen – that employ the Dusseldorf Method, a technique developed there. The process takes the water through a “multi-barrier principle” treatment. Stadtwerke Dusseldorf employees in the quality control department constantly monitor this three-step process as it treats, filters and protects the water before it is delivered to end users.
How Wonderware helped Dusseldorf Waterworks reduce costs, optimize control and improve reporting will be the subject of the next series of posts.
