AUTOMATED PROCESS CONTROL METHOD AND SYSTEM IN PRIMARY SETTLING TANKS, SECONDARY SETTLING TANKS AND/OR SLUDGE CONSOLIDATION TANKS AT WASTE WATER TREATMENT PLANTS OF HOUSING AND UTILITIES INFRASTRUCTURE Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC G06Q50/06 G01N27/02 G01N33/00 

FIELD: electricity.

SUBSTANCE: system comprises an assembly of capacitance-type primary converters to measure electric capacity (dielectric capacitivity) and electric resistance (electrical conductivity) and temperature, which is placed at mobile equipment inside a settling tank, an assembly of secondary converters coupled to the primary ones and supplying the primary converters with action signals of the preset frequency and amplitude and the instantaneous response values of voltage and current at the primary converters for further processing, a programmable device or an automated workspace for control coupled to the secondary converters through a wired or wireless communications line with functions of data collection, processing and storage, including control over changes in the measured values of dielectric capacitivity and electrical conductivity with time or in regard to a structure of the settling tank, as well as issuing of the final forecast for a level or properties of sediment or sludge.

EFFECT: improving efficiency of automated control for waste water settling tanks.
