Abstract
A method of monitoring the daily operating performance parameters for water treatment processes through the collection of localized data. The data is manipulated to generate preconfigured performance, maintenance, and quality assurance reports and further provide automatic submission of data as required for regulatory review of certain water treatment systems such as potable water treatment. The data is collected from sensors located at an equipment site and transferred to a remote computer located by use of the Internet, further all data received and used for generation of reports is also accessible by Internet connection and be delivered directly to the regulatory agency without additional process.
Claims26
A method for remote monitoring the daily operating performance parameters for a water treatment system employing an electronic control system comprising the steps of:
- a) accessing raw operating data from said electronic control system;
- b) providing a storage means on a local computer for storing said raw operating data in an electronic format;
- c) coupling said local computer to an Internet server computer;
- d) transmitting said stored raw data using transmission methods to a remotely located Internet server computer;
- e) storing said transmitted raw data on said Internet server computer;
- f) accessing such data asynchronously from said Internet server computer;
- g) manipulating said tansmitted and stored raw data into an analysis result and a report result;
- and
- h) uploading said analysis result and said report result to an Internet web server in a format suitable for access and visualization with a web browser computer program.
