Mantis.AI
A wastewater treatment plant digital twin and prediction tool integrating real-time SCADA data
What is this
Mantis.AI is a Digital Twin tool built for wastewater treatment plants that provides real-time prediction and optimization for plant operations by integrating real-time SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) data. The system can simulate complex biological and chemical reaction processes, helping operations teams grasp water-quality changes, equipment status, and treatment performance in advance in a digital environment, rather than just passively responding to sudden situations.
What problem it solves
Traditional wastewater treatment plants often face large water-quality fluctuations, high energy use, and regulatory-compliance pressure, and often rely on operators' experience for manual adjustments. Through real-time data prediction and optimization, Mantis.AI effectively solves the pain points of excessive energy use and unstable treatment performance. It can warn of water-quality anomalies in advance, helping teams adjust chemical dosing and aeration at the best time, not only ensuring stable, compliant effluent quality but also dramatically reducing electricity and chemical costs and improving the plant's overall sustainable operation.
