inspections to input the data directly
in the field so they no longer have
to write results on a piece of paper
and enter it into Excel. The Ten Mile
Creek Regional Wastewater System
plant previously consumed 6,516
sheets of paper annually to capture
process control and laboratory data.
Since implementation, the usage
has dropped to approximately
100 sheets, representing a
remarkable 98% reduction in annual
paper consumption.
Reducing the number of human
interactions eliminates the possibility
of human error and frees up time
for operators to focus on operational
efficiencies. Data within WIMS is
organized by each physical location
which creates a digital twin of
the plant. The convergence of the
physical and digital realms yields
precise, real-time performance
insights. This has given operators a
better understanding of the treatment
process and the ability to make
better operational decisions.
Having all the data easily
accessible in one place and archived
over the years also opens the door to
trend analysis and finding causality
between different elements. For
example, if Dissolved Oxygen (DO)
levels drop in a basin, it can cause a
spike in ammonia in the discharged
effluent. Inversely, a high DO can
indicate opportunities for energy cost
savings by trimming the amount of
air being generated by the blowers.
The dashboard allows operators to
be proactive in maintaining a healthy
DO level while lowering costs.
" Recently the chief operator
noticed a trend in SCFM (standard
cubic feet per minute) and basin
DO levels on the dashboard. This
led him to make the decision to turn
off one of the blowers. In doing so
he maintained safe DO levels and
was able to realize a significant
savings in electrical power, " says
Naranjo. By using the dashboards,
TMCRWS Operators can continuously
fine-tune blowers and UV system
power settings. This enables them
to proactively maintain dissolved

Naranjo and Easley make adjustments based on data.
Since moving to WIMS, the Ten Mile Creek Regional Wastewater System plant has reduced paper
consumption by 98 percent.
