Nashville’s city government has a deep-rooted history in the water industry, providing drinking water to its citizens since the early 1800s. Today, Nashville Metro Water Services (MWS), Tennessee, serves more than 191,000 customers in Nashville and surrounding counties.

CAT implemented the Xylem Vue platform and its Smart Water Engine to solve this problem and boost water and energy efficiency. The Unified Network Management application was implemented to provide a single control center for CAT’s drinking water treatment assets, regardless of their geographical location.

BALTEN needed to modernize its outdated infrastructure and software platforms, so it could optimize its irrigation water transportation system and improve the overall performance of its irrigation water service.

Manchester City FC is using smart technology and rainwater reuse to reduce potable water use across its Etihad Campus. With help from Xylem’s data-driven platform, the club aims to optimize irrigation and achieve full stormwater reuse by 2026.

Xylem Vue is helping the Confederación Hidrográfica del Ebro (CHE) reduce flood damage and implement an EWS for stakeholders managing disaster situations in the basin.  CHE is the water authority that manages, regulates and maintains the Ebro river basin, which covers a surface area of around 85,000 km2 and takes in 347 large rivers in northeastern Spain.  

As the level of national awareness for the need to protect our nation’s water resources continued to grow, federal and state regulators pursued a consent decree in 2006 requiring enhancements to Buffalo’s collection system.

The water and wastewater utility for the Romanian cities of Turda and Campia Turzii, along with 13 other municipalities, Apă Arieș wanted to boost the overall hydraulic performance of their drinking water system to ensure service quality and reduce water loss, especially in rural areas near Turda.

The town of Gandia, one of the largest coastal towns in Spain, wanted to continue the digital transformation of its water management services through the implementation of remote metering and the transfer of water consumption data.

To expand digital transformation initiatives beyond the city of Valencia, and effectively manage up to 400 different services across a widely dispersed geographical area. Due to the nature of the project and the stakeholders involved, Global Omnium needed to integrate the systems, sensors, and communication protocols which were already installed across the various infrastructures it managed.

Provide integrated, in-depth, real-time knowledge on system, plant, and asset performance which would allow Global Omnium to more efficiently operate and manage the complex water network in Valencia, Spain and the surrounding metropolitan area.

Improve control, responsiveness, and efficiency of facilities and processes by providing real-time network status information and analyzing historical network and asset data. Increase resource management effectiveness and efficiency to provide customers with the highest level of service at the lowest possible cost.

Centralize water cycle management for Publiacqua SpA, the utility in charge of providing the drinking water service in Medio Valdarno, in Tuscany, which has four provinces: Florence, Prato, Pistoia and Arezzo.

As a municipality with significant fluctuations in water consumption—extremely high demand during the summer—that also relies on multiple reservoir and pumping stations to deal with issues associated with its complicated terrain, the town of Calpe, Spain wanted to optimize their water cycle management.

Regulate and monitor pressures, supervise flow rates, consumption, and non-revenue water (NRW) in different sectors, and bring together system information from various sources including the SADM’s SCADA.

Improve hydraulic efficiency of the water distribution system for the City of Barranquilla, Colombia and its 14 surrounding municipalities and reduce non-revenue water losses, which were around 50%.

Global Omnium, one of Spain's largest water utilities, has gone through a remarkable digital transformation over the past two decades - upgrading from conventional meters to an advanced smart meter network of over 550,000 fixed network smart meters. This journey provides valuable lessons for any water utility looking to modernize its operations and capitalize on the latest innovations in smart metering and data analytics.

The City of Fort Wayne, the second largest city in Indiana, has a proactive water utility that is always looking for innovative ways to optimize water management and better serve their community.

For decades, the City of Richmond’s Department of Public Utilities has been working to reduce combined sewer overflows (CSOs) and improve water quality in the James River. Despite making significant improvements, the City still experiences between one and three billion gallons of annual overflow and is actively working to reach Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) water quality goals.

Air Selangor is a large water distribution company owned by the Malaysian state of Selangor. The public utility serves a population of 8.4 million residents and manages over 6200 kilometers of trunk mains, ranging from 300mm up to 2200mm, with much of the pipelines located in remote areas of the state.

Evansville is located on the north bank of the Ohio River in southwest Indiana. The City’s sewer system, parts of which are more than 100 years old, serves a population of 163,000, with combined sewers making up almost 40 percent of the total sewer area.

In 2002, the EPA entered into a federal consent decree with MSD, mandating the elimination of sanitary sewer overflows and significant mitigation of combined sewer overflows into receiving waterways. Engineers estimated the cost to mitigate the sewer overflows at $3.1 billion, an unacceptable capital expense to pass along to MSD’s customers.

This mid-sized utility located in Orange County, California has long been proactive in encouraging water conservation through regulations and outreach programs. Well over a decade ago, the utility became concerned with ongoing apparent water loss (water that is consumed but not properly measured, accounted or paid for) and the economic, social and environmental costs associated with this issue.

Xylem Vue has helped to reduce Cuxhaven’s WWTP aeration energy requirements by over 26% and meet its effluent quality requirements.
