Applications — Municipal & Public
Small systems deserve big-plant precision.
Tens of thousands of small water systems dose treatment chemicals with equipment that can't verify itself, run by operators stretched across towns. The platform makes every dose measured, verified, and written down.
The challenge
Where this application goes wrong today.
One operator, many systems
Circuit-riding operators can't stand next to a chemical feed pump. Between visits, the pump is on its own — and silent about it.
Feed that doesn't follow demand
Production swings daily; stroke-set metering pumps hold yesterday's rate. Residual targets wander in the gap.
Compliance is paperwork-heavy
Monitoring and reporting consume the hours small systems don't have — from readings that were sampled, not recorded continuously.
The fix
Dose. Verify. Log. Repeat — identically.
Meter the system's approved treatment chemistry proportional to measured production flow, verify continuously in-line, and keep a time-stamped record of every dose and fault. When the operator arrives, the system reports what it did — and the report is ready for the state's forms.
- Demand-proportional feed — dosing follows production through the morning peak and the overnight trickle.
- Continuous in-line verification — conductivity-based confirmation that feed is landing — between the manual residual checks.
- Operator-ready records — time-stamped logs that map onto monitoring and reporting paperwork.
- Approved chemistry only — the system's existing, state-accepted treatment program — delivered precisely, never substituted.
- Fail-safe alarms — faults stop feed and flag the operator rather than dosing blind into distribution.
The chemistry
The operator's chemistry, the platform's precision.
Treatment decisions in public water systems belong to the certified operator and the primacy agency — residual maintenance, phosphate-based corrosion control, pH adjustment. The platform's contribution is delivery: qualified metering of the approved chemical, continuous verification, and the record of both.
All chemical selection, residual targets, and compliance determinations remain with the certified operator and regulators. The platform supports monitoring; it does not replace required sampling.
Common questions
Is this compliant equipment for public systems?
Deployment in public water systems runs through our government program, scoped with the operator and primacy agency from the outset — including the approvals and standards the jurisdiction requires. We engineer to that bar rather than around it.
Can it alert a circuit-riding operator?
Local-first design keeps control on-site; connectivity for alerts and log retrieval is optional and scoped per system, so a fault can page the operator instead of waiting for the next visit.
Does this replace the metering pump we already run?
Not on day one. An evaluation unit runs beside your existing feed equipment first — same water, same approved chemistry — and the two records make the case before anything is replaced. The operator's judgment stays in charge of that decision.
