Report on How Operator Self-Monitoring Can Lower Costs
Sep 13 2013
Wastewater represents a cost to business. Hach Lange (UK) has produced a report on how Operator Self Monitoring (OSM) can not only reduce discharge and treatment costs but also boost profit by increased product recovery and reduced energy consumption.
In recent years, the Environment Agency (EA) has shifted towards OSM where water companies and processing industries self monitor their discharge and report results to the EA. The frequency of monitoring is dictated by a combination of the risk posed by the discharge and assessment of the quality of the operator's monitoring regime.
Operators have a choice; they can either hope that the spot checks are accurate, or they can conduct their own monitoring to make sure that it is.
Self-monitoring can deliver much more than an accurate charge for wastewater; it can create a better understanding of a process and thereby improve efficiency.
