    11/20/2008|Siemens Establishes Mobile Water Treatment Services in Middle East
    Siemens Water Technologies has established its mobile water treatment solutions in the Middle East with its first installation outside North America, where the company services thousands of municipal and industrial customers. Siemens will supply the system to Saudi Aramco in Saudi Arabia. The 50m3/hr system uses media filtration, followed by reverse osmosis, to treat and purify groundwater for use as drinking water. The mobile water treatment units began operation on June 15, 2008, and will be on site for about three years. Unlike other treatment systems, which require the investment of capital expense, manufacturing time, and installation, the containerized mobile water systems provide numerous advantages, such as rapid response for emergency or unplanned maintenance, minimal field construction costs and the flexibility to upgrade or change a treatment process if source water chemistry changes.

    08/08/2008|U.S. East Coast City Installs Second Siemens SCADA System
    Siemens Water Technologies will provide Meriden, Conn., with a second Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system, valued at US$1.3 million. The city’s latest system, to be installed as part of an upgrade at its 11.6-MGD Water Pollution Control Facility, will be compatible with the SCADA system supplied by Siemens to Meriden’s water division facilities in 2002. Once the new SCADA system comes online in early 2010, it will allow the city to control and monitor 1,550 process-related database points, make informed decisions regarding the operation of the pollution control facility, and optimize process operations. This, in turn, will improve the facility’s effluent.
