Product Description

SENTRY: Wastewater Treatment Plant Monitoring & Optimization Solution

SENTRY is a unique bio-electrode sensor technology that provides real-time microbial performance monitoring in anaerobic and aerobic wastewater treatment systems.

SENTRY leverages bio-electrochemical sensor technology to relay bio-activity (metabolic activity) of the microbiology to the wastewater system operator. This data allows operators to continually monitor the microbial stability (health) of their wastewater treatment process. Furthermore, this data can be leveraged with other water quality and operational data to improve/optimize system performance.

The online dashboard allows users access to visualize microbial-electrode metabolic activity in real time. Data is presented with user options to view on hourly, daily, weekly, monthly or customized intervals.

Data can be selected and downloaded in CSV format for off-line data analysis. Multiple installed electrodes can be visualized with the same login and dashboard allowing for a single location to visualize a network of installed probes or systems.

Key Benefits

• Monitor WWTP process stability
  • Real-time bio-electrode data allows operator to monitor microbial health of the WWTP
• Protect the WWTP from upset
  • Imbalance or toxic shock events can be identified the instant they begin to impact microbial activity. This allows the operator to take immediate action and reduce negative impacts on system performance.
• Optimize process
  • Aggregation of data and integration with existing water quality and process information provides unique insights into system performance over time.
