This book was released on 2002-05-31 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instrumentation, control and automation (ICA) in the water industry has come a long way in the three decades since the first IAWPR workshops on the subject and is now a well established and recognised area of technology. This has resulted from a combination of factors: improvements in the capabilities of hardware and software, developments in theoretical understanding and practical applications, and a wider awareness of the power of ICA. These developments continue at pace, and so the heavyweight programme of the 8th conference in this series (the first under the banner of the International Water Association) attracted a large attendance. A central goal of the conference was to link practical operating experience with new research results on sensor technology, instrumentation, control, and automation systems. This is important in both water and wastewater treatment and transport systems, which incorporate increasingly complex measurement systems, information technology, control systems and human interaction. From the extensive programme 60 papers were selected by a thorough review procedure for these selected proceedings. Topics covers include: process control; sensors for wastewater characterization; benchmarking for control strategy development and testing; sensors for monitoring and detection; process monitoring, detection and early warning systems; process and plant-wide control approaches; modeling and simulation; network control and integrated approaches; applied control; and operational support and experiences. They provide a genuinely state-of-the-art compilation in a field of central importance to water and wastewater.

This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 822 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instrumentation, Control and Automation of Water and Wastewater Treatment and Transport Systems documents the proceedings of the 5th IAWPRC Workshop held in Yokohama and Kyoto, Japan, 26 July-3 August 1990. The papers presented at this Workshop have emphasized the following aspects: • new sensor technology based on developments in electrochemistry, fiber optics, and electro-optics; • research into materials such as those needed to produce membranes of the required selectivity, for immobilization of reactive species, and for addition of reagents and standards; • the use of inferential measurements coupled with expert system technology; • the ever-increasing power of microprocessors and the continuing reduction in their unit costs; • better communications capability; • improved mathematical modeling; • an increased awareness of the improved management that results from the timely availability of relevant data to the appropriate levels in the management hierarchy. This book, together with the proceedings of previous workshops, provides what is probably the most comprehensive account of the state of the art and recent developments in instrumentation, control, and automation as applied to the water and water-using industries, and as such will be invaluable to the practitioner, the researcher, and the student community.

Book excerpt: Progress in Water Technology, Volume 6: Instrumentation Control and Automation for Waste-Water Treatment Systems contains the proceedings of the International Association on Water Pollution Research Workshop on Instrumentation Control and Automation for Waste-water Treatment Systems, held in London in September 1973. Contributors review major advances that have been made in instrumentation control and automation of wastewater treatment. This volume consists of 70 chapters organized into six sections. The work of the Directorate General Water Engineering in the Department of the Environment in the UK and the Environmental Protection Agency in the United States with respect to promotion of instrumentation, control, and automation for wastewater treatment systems is first discussed. This discussion is followed by a chapter that describes the effects of water pollution legislation in The Netherlands on the selection of wastewater treatment plants and their consequences for consulting engineers regarding process, technical, and economical feasibility. A real-time water quality management system for a major river in Pennsylvania is also considered, along with effluent control and instrumentation in Europe. The chapters that follow focus on instrumentation and control problems in the design of a modern sewage works; installation of field equipment in automated process control systems; process control for biological treatment of organic industrial wastewaters; and the use of computers to control sewage treatment. This book will be of interest to authorities, planners, and policymakers involved in wastewater treatment and water pollution control.
