Wet-weather monitoring
HydroFlow from Cenozon is a software application that monitors and automatically notifies pipeline operators of abnormal stream flow conditions associated to their pipeline water and provides critical insight with historical water level records (where available). Combining real-time stream flow data with the user’s pipeline water-crossing data, HydroFlow employs data visualization and geospatial mapping technology to provide a visual snapshot of pipeline crossings and associated water gauges. HydroFlow can be used with the operator’s existing data and risk management system or as part of Cenozon’s Pipeline Integrity Risk Manager software.

Water treatment system design software
The specialty chemicals corporation LANXESS has made further enhancements to its LewaPlus software for designing water treatment systems. With this 2.0 release, users now have the unique ability to combine different technologies in one design using drag-and-drop. Now users can seamlessly simulate complex plant designs including a combination of several treatment steps in a single design process. The water analysis calculated by the individual modules is automatically taken over as feed to the subsequent module.

Membrane software with CCRO modeling
Desalitech’s Closed Circuit Reverse Osmosis (CCRO) technology now comes with the PROTON Membrane Aqueous Chemistry Calculator software from American Water Chemicals. Gives application engineers the ability to design systems using CCRO and operators the ability to optimize and troubleshoot their existing CCRO systems. The software allows users to design a membrane array, then compare the performance of any of the major manufacturers’ membrane elements under identical conditions. Users can see the impact of various designs on scaling potential, permeate quality and pressure in real time as user-defined inputs (recovery, flux, crossflow velocity, pH, temperature) are adjusted.
