Imagine a smart thermostat, but for water cleaning plants. Instead of just checking temperature, it uses a high-tech sensor to 'smell' harmful greenhouse gases in the air and water. It then uses an AI brain to automatically adjust the machinery to stop these gases from escaping and save electricity.
Wastewater plants lack commercial tools to monitor and report N2O and CH4 emissions required by new EU laws. This leads to inefficient energy use and high greenhouse gas output.
A complete system consisting of multiplexing hardware, the EmiCo Lite analyzer, AI/digital twin software, and a cloud-based user platform.
If you are a city utility dealing with new EU reporting laws for direct emissions — this project developed an AI-based monitoring system that can reduce emissions by up to 50%. It helps you meet net-zero goals while cutting energy and chemical costs by 20%.
If you are a private operator dealing with high operational overheads — this project developed a multiplexing analyzer that monitors multiple basins with one device. This reduces the need for expensive hardware while cutting chemical and energy consumption by 20%.
If you are a consultant dealing with clients who lack commercial tools to track N2O and CH4 — this project developed a cloud-based user platform and digital twin. It provides the high-quality data needed to prove a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
The system uses AI models to adjust aeration parameters, leading to 20% cost savings for energy and chemical consumption.
Yes, the technology features multiplexing capabilities that allow one analyzer to monitor multiple aeration basins, which saves costs for operators.
Based on available project data, the solution utilizes patented measurement technology.
New EU regulations require wastewater treatment plants to monitor and report direct emissions; VARIO provides the commercial solution for this reporting.
The project period is from 2023-04-01 to 2025-03-31, with the system now described as ready for market deployment.
The project is led by a single German SME, Variolytics GmbH, which holds a 100% industry ratio. This lean structure suggests a highly focused commercial drive, as the company is directly responsible for both the R&D and the eventual market deployment of the patented technology.
