On 20 January 2022, the DigitalWater 2020 Synergy Group, which brings together five Horizon 2020 projects that are propelling research into digital water technologies, organise a first online event to introduce different digital solutions for water management. 

The DigitalWater 2020 Communities of Practice will showcase concrete results from all DW2020 research projects*. Several utilities and municipalities will present digital solutions related to water bodies, sewer networks and wastewater treatment plants. They will discuss:

  • what digital solutions they have been testing
  • which benefits have been achieved locally
  • which challenges they have been facing in the implementation.

The preliminary agenda for the first event includes 10 min presentations of the following solutions:

  • New tools to monitor and simulate bathing water quality; tested in Berlin, Milan and Paris in DWC
  • The use of satellite data for oil spill detection in inland waters; tested in Thessaloniki in Aqua3S
  •  Machine Learning inflow forecast for real-time control of WWTP; tested in Copenhagen in DWC
  • Intelligent control for wastewater treatment; tested in Amsterdam in Fiware4Water
  • New low-cost sensors for CSO monitoring in sewer networks, tested in Berlin and Sofia in DWC
  • Turbinator: a new turbidity and water level sensor; tested in Gothenburg in SCOREWater
  • Tools for wastewater management; tested in Alicante in NAIADES
