Do you face these challenges?
The solution
How we can help you – EcoAxis solution
EcoAxis' solution provides a decision support system through continuous monitoring that can integrate plant operations,
consumables management, and maintenance processes to help generate information for data-driven decision making.
An informed decision can thus lead to savings in operation and maintenance cost, improved life, and performance of the
plant.
In the water and wastewater treatment industry, there is a continuous demand on OEMs, O&M operators, and plant
owners to maximize output–both in terms of quantity and quality–to maintain process parameters at an optimum level,
to achieve high availability, and to maximize plant life while reducing operating costs such as man-power, consumables,
and energy. Highly complex and continuously evolving technologies in the fields of water treatment (for municipal,
industrial, and medical–purposes, effluent treatment (including Zero Liquid Discharge), and sewage treatment add to the
overall complexity. This necessitates continuous and aggressive management of operation and maintenance practices to
realize high reliability of process equipment and low total cost of ownership of plants over several decades of plant
usage.
O&M and BOO/BOOT operators

Plant supplier
The continuous introduction of new technologies in water and wastewater treatment makes it necessary for plant
suppliers to validate new designs in the field and help the end user manage the product and/or plant life cycle efficiently.
There is also pressure on the service organization which caters to a large, geographically-spread installed base.
Integration of service and supply chains is also a key challenge while deploying resources at remotely located sites.
It's always a tight-rope walk for O&M operators to manage a plant with the highest possible efficiency at the lowest
possible costs and still meet the challenging KPIs of availability, throughput, and quality. Changes in quality and quantity
of raw water necessitate continuous process adjustments that need to be monitored by process experts. Avoiding
breakdowns by on-time or preventive maintenance and optimizing maintenance practices through condition–based
maintenance is the need of the moment. Issues such as scarcity of service resources and the availability of experts from
the head office at remote sites add to the complexity of this challenge. Additionally, compliance with environmental
regulations with proper accountability is an additional deliverable which these operators have to fulfill
Keeping the total cost of ownership in control by efficiently maintaining and operating the plant with the maximum yield is
the biggest challenge for all plant owners. The end user also needs to simultaneously reduce the costs of consumables,
energy, and operation & maintenance while keeping an eye on depleting fresh water sources.
challenges. A centralized online, real-time decision support system that can empower personnel with information on the
device of their choice i.e. laptops, mobile phones, or tablets can help meet these challenges. Such a system will involve:

3. Real-time reporting of KPIs like specific chemical consumption or energy consumption that help to keep track of
operational effectiveness and performance
The lack of the right information to the right people at the right place and right time leaves plant managers and personnel
struggling to meet these challenges. Expansive plants and geographically distributed plant locations only compound the

The hardware and software components of EcoAxis' solution help in acquiring critical data from various entry points such
as control systems (PLCs / DCS) of machinery, instruments, switchgear etc. It also facilitates manual data entry by
operators for laboratory test parameters like COD, BOD, MLSS etc. This data is sent to remote or local server over the
internet using either an Ethernet LAN or a GPRS or broadband connection. EcoAxis' software and database on the
server stores this raw data and creates actionable information using high-end analytic tools. This raw data and analytics
are made available to authorized users on any device, anytime, anywhere.

§ Tracking consumption of dosing chemicals and consumption helps optimizing the cost of a process
§ Increase plant availability by controlling and effectively managing unscheduled stoppage
§ Take informed decisions and allow greater flexibility in plant operation
§ Reduce maintenance cost by moving away from breakdown maintenance to condition based to predictive
maintenance by detecting defects early and carry out maintenance during scheduled shutdowns rather than through
unplanned shutdowns
§ Reduce travel to site by experts, especially in a multi-plant scenario where there can be a scarcity of experts.
§ Helps equipment attain peak operational efficiency through analysis of historic data of plant performance during
various running conditions and variance in inlet water quality
