Wastewater Treatment

Imagine relying on a single expert who knows exactly how to run your wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). This expert can sometimes tell by smell what action is needed, what balance between bacteria, enzymes and other components is required.

But what happens when that expert is away, for example, sick or on vacation? And what if he or she is about to retire?

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are a critical part of the manufacturing environment, and a malfunction can shut down the entire plant. Something companies with discharge requirements want to avoid at all costs.

So it’s important that more than one person has this valuable expertise to reduce your company’s vulnerability.

The packaging line is the last crucial step in the production process. This is where value is added by carefully packaging products. When this line runs smoothly, everything seems to run flawlessly.

A modern packaging line in a factory is an interplay of automated processes and complex systems. But even with these systems, problems can arise:

The silver wave is heading for your factory too: what now?

You’ve known for a while now. In eight months, he’s retiring. ‘Bob’, who has been working on line 3 for 38 years. Bob, who can tell at a glance whether the mixer is running right. Who can explain within five minutes why you had quality deviations last week and what you need to do to prevent them. That Bob is about to leave, and he’s taking all his knowledge with him.

Supporting operators with AI chatbots: consider these risks

Manufacturing companies are actively experimenting with AI chatbots to support operators during malfunctions. A digital assistant that immediately provides the right instructions sounds ideal. However, it’s not as easy as it seems, and there are important risks to consider.
