Expansion of the wastewater treatment plant
Advanced solutions for water treatment efficiency and sustainability
For the upgrading of the wastewater treatment plant serving the municipalities of Recco, Avegno, Uscio, Camogli, Sori and Pieve Ligure, Righi took care of the executive design, the development of the control software and the supply of the power, MCC and automation panels. The project involved the realisation of integrated electrical systems for power, command and control of the entire system, ensuring efficient, reliable and sustainable wastewater treatment.
Challenge
The main challenge of the project was to integrate advanced technologies into an existing, completely underground facility, where it was crucial to optimise available space and minimise environmental impact. It was essential to ensure precise, real-time control of more than 1500 I/O points, including analogue signals, while ensuring stable and reliable communication via wireless link with the customer’s central supervision system.
Results/benefits achieved by the customer
- Real-time control: Ability to monitor and manage all system statuses, reducing response times in case of anomalies and minimising the use of personnel.
- Reduction of plant downtime: Optimisation of operations to ensure integrated and continuous management of the purification process.
- Advanced technology: Use of high quality components, including Siemens, ABB and Righi Elettroservizi’s TQM series products, to ensure reliability and durability.
- Efficient integration: Implementation of 15 HMIs, 1 SCADA-based supervisor and distributed peripherals for centralised and intuitive plant management.
