Real-time water analysis for fast
remedial action
Fluid Imaging Technologies has introduced the FlowCam WW particle imaging and analysis system designed to monitor the biological makeup within the secondary system of a wastewater treatment facility
FlowCam WW enables wastewater operators and laboratory technicians to verify their secondary treatment basins are operating with the optimum level and make up of microbes and then quickly take remedial action if necessary Installed inline for monitoring basins 24/7 or used in the lab for analysing discrete samples, the high speed instrumentation takes hi-resolution, full colour digital images of individual bacterial cells and other microorganisms as well as inorganic solids and measures size, length, width, shape, count and other parameters in real time

Flowcam now offers intensity, transparency, colour, ESD volume, ABD volume, compactness, roughness, elongation and myriad other analysis parameters for studying the particle images
Saving the images with their corresponding data sets in a digital library, the automated FlowCam WW permits the establishment of purely objective historical and baseline data for consistent comparison, interpretation and analysis by any operator or laboratory technician year after year.
The FlowCam WW eliminates the time- and labour-intensive microscopy process typically used to measure and analyse microbes along with its potential for human error in favour of a fast and easy approach that captures far more data and reveals far more accurate information without requiring highly trained operators.
With this reliable data, operators and laboratory technicians can more precisely determine the optimal treatment system adjustment to promote efficient treatment and minimise material costs.
