Thanks to our partner Nautilus Oceanica, we were able to take part in the project below.
Today we’re taking you to Spain. Our customer manages the exploitation of freshwater reservoir resources for consumption and agriculture. These reservoirs are mainly fed by rainwater. With global warming, reservoir levels are reaching lowest records. On the other hand, temperature and light levels are rising, leading to the appearance of cyanobacteria. This is a common phenomenon, particularly in summer, but it does not affect water consumption or health.
How can we tell if the reservoirs are affected by this phenomenon?
Solutions
Eight 20-litre buoys, each fitted with a WiMo multi-parameter sonde, have been installed in 5 freshwater reservoirs.
Which parameters were measured by our client?
➡️ Temperature
➡️ Oxygen
➡️ Chlorophyll A
➡️ Phycocyanine
➡️ pH
Our support is not limited to the supply of equipment.
⏱️ Time and efficiency savings
Previously, our customer took readings manually. Thanks to our modem, which sends the measurements via the 3G/4G connection, the user no longer needs to travel. They receive live data directly to their office.
💻 Our data visualisation platform, Inoview, allows them to monitor remotely and receive alerts by email and text messages.
For example, our instrumented probes detected the presence of cyanobacteria this summer. Thanks to our alert system, our customer was able to react more quickly and treat the water in no time.
Our probes are highly efficient in many situations. Don’t hesitate to contact us and we will assist you in finding the best solution for your project: info.instrumentation@nke.fr
