How AI is used

Clewas provides a software platform, ROMax, focused on the operational efficiency of reverse osmosis (RO) membrane water treatment plants. It is designed to support a transition from manual, reactive plant management to a data-driven approach using real time monitoring and predictive insights.

The software is built for desalination plant operators and industrial water users. It supports the monitoring of key metrics such as pump pressure and recovery ratios, and provides recommendations for cleaning schedules and chemical dosing to help protect membranes from fouling.

Buyers should note that the system relies on integrating various data streams, including PLC/SCADA readings and lab results, to generate its recommendations. The implementation process follows a three-step path: a historical data analysis to estimate potential savings, a pilot study with real time recommendations, and full integration.

Key Features

  • Real Time Monitoring

    Tracks pump pressure, flow rates, and recovery ratios to provide live system visibility.

  • Predictive Maintenance

    Analyzes system conditions to recommend cleaning schedules weeks in advance.

  • Dosing Recommendations

    Provides data-driven suggestions for antiscalant chemical usage to help reduce waste.

  • Operational Setpoint Optimization

    Calculates economical pump speed and recovery ratios based on desired output flowrates.

  • PLC/SCADA Integration

    Connects to live sensor readings and industrial control systems for continuous data flow.

  • Predictive Result Modeling

    Shows predicted outcomes of a setting change before the operator applies the adjustment.

Use Cases

  • Reducing Energy Consumption

    Using AI to find optimal pump pressure and flow rates that may lower electricity costs.

  • Extending Membrane Lifespan

    Implementing predictive cleaning schedules to help avoid membrane damage caused by untimely cleaning.

  • Chemical Cost Management

    Applying data-driven dosing recommendations for antiscalants to help minimize chemical waste.

  • Reducing Unplanned Downtime

    Using 24/7 monitoring and early warning alerts to help identify particulate fouling or other issues early.

Integrations

  • PLC/SCADA integration

FAQ

What does Clewas do for a desalination plant?

It monitors real time data and provides AI-driven recommendations for pump pressure, flow rates, and chemical dosing to help reduce costs and extend membrane life.

How does the implementation process work?

The process typically starts with a free historical data analysis to identify savings, followed by a pilot study with real time recommendations, and finally full integration for 24/7 monitoring.

Can Clewas help with membrane maintenance?

Yes, it includes a predictive maintenance system that can recommend cleaning schedules weeks in advance, which may help extend the overall lifespan of the membranes.
