A single platform for wastewater network management

A single platform for wastewater network management

Without an integrated wastewater management software, many utilities struggle to see a complete picture of their operational status and network efficiency. Their operators and managers are often flooded with hundreds of separate data streams coming in from multiple sources, making it difficult to get an accurate reflection of the interconnected nature of their network, let alone make holistic improvements, react to challenges quickly, test potential scenarios, and predict problems.

Xylem Vue powered by GoAigua is a single, integrated wastewater management software that enables utilities to meet their wastewater and storm water challenges more efficiently, maximize existing investments, and provide affordable and reliable service to their communities.

At its heart is the Smart Water Engine

The Smart Water Engine eliminates silos and unifies data no matter its source. It integrates and standardizes that data to create a single, holistic model that, when coupled with proprietary advanced algorithms, allows the Smart Water Engine to look out across the entirety of a utility’s network.

The utility then accesses this single data source through water and wastewater applications within the Xylem Vue powered by GoAigua platform to address real-world network challenges.

Ultimately, by removing the burden of managing multiple independent technologies, the Smart Water Engine, delivered through Xylem Vue powered by GoAigua, provides critical, 360-degree operational decision intelligence to anyone who needs it across the utility.

The Smart Water Engine creates a single source of standardized data to help:

  • Monitor operational processes
  • Run real-time what-if scenarios
  • Interact with GIS framework to accurately geolocate all assets
  • Establish device management and performance alerts
  • Build digital twin hydraulic models
  • Design operational dashboards
Wastewater Management Software Helps Buffalo Cut Combined Sewer Overflows by 450 Million Gallons

Wastewater Management Software Helps Buffalo Cut Combined Sewer Overflows by 450 Million Gallons

Buffalo, once a booming industrial city, has long struggled with combined sewer overflows (CSOs) that discharge billions of gallons of untreated wastewater into local waterways each year. Facing a costly $525 million consent agreement to upgrade its aging infrastructure, the Buffalo Sewer Authority (BSA) needed an innovative and cost-effective solution. 

BSA partnered with Xylem to develop a real-time decision support system (RT-DSS) to optimize the city's infrastructure using Xylem Vue powered by GoAigua’s SSO/CSO Prediction and Prevention application. This wastewater management software optimizes Buffalo's existing infrastructure by building inline storage vaults and using predictive analytics to minimize CSOs. In just the first year, the initial three sites reduced overflows by an astounding 450 million gallons - four times more than expected with full implementation. Thanks to this wastewater management software, BSA revised its long-term control plan to save at least $145 million while drastically cutting pollution and making the city an environmental leader.

City of Richmond Leverages Real-Time Data Analytics to Reduce Combined Sewer Overflows

City of Richmond Leverages Real-Time Data Analytics to Reduce Combined Sewer Overflows

After receiving a mandate from the Virginia General Assembly to reduce combined sewer overflows (CSOs) and improve water quality in the James River by 2035, the City of Richmond needed to identify cost-effective solutions. Previously relying on static hydraulic models with limited accuracy, the city partnered with Xylem to install real-time sensors across its network and gain better visibility into its combined sewer system through its advanced wastewater management software.

Utilizing Xylem Vue powered by GoAigua's SSO/CSO Prediction and Prevention application, Richmond combined data from 99 sensors with Xylem's hydroinformatics expertise to visualize network operations and identify potential upgrade projects. Xylem's advanced modeling simulations evaluated 18 potential projects, narrowing it down to 10 projects included in Richmond's Interim Plan. These projects are expected to reduce approximately 182 million gallons of annual CSO volume at an average mitigation cost of only $0.18 per gallon – over 200% more cost-effective than previous projects. Additionally, Xylem developed a publicly accessible online map showing real-time CSO events, increasing transparency for residents. With an actionable plan avoiding costly infrastructure, Richmond is now on track for regulatory compliance while achieving transformative outcomes.

Wastewater Management Software Saves Cincinnati $38 Million by Reducing Overflows

Wastewater Management Software Saves Cincinnati $38 Million by Reducing Overflows

The Metropolitan Sewer District of Greater Cincinnati (MSD) was under a federal consent decree to eliminate sanitary sewer overflows and mitigate billions of gallons of combined sewer overflows into local waterways each year. However, the estimated $3.1 billion capital cost for traditional infrastructure upgrades was unaffordable. MSD needed a smarter, more cost-effective solution to optimize its existing assets and meet environmental regulations.

MSD partnered with Xylem to implement the SSO/CSO Prediction and Prevention application, part of its wastewater management software – Xylem Vue powered by GoAigua. This application incorporates digital twin technology and creates a real-time decision support system by combining sensor data, weather forecasts, and AI analytics to automatically control storage facilities, high-rate treatment, and flows through Cincinnati's sewer network. The coordinated system helped MSD achieve remarkable results - reducing overflows by 247 million gallons annually based on 2015 rainfall. Compared to a $38 million capital project cost, MSD saved over 90% while mitigating overflows for less than $0.01 per gallon.
