UK Water Treatment Plant
Water treatment is one of the largest energy consumers in society. To save energy, there are ongoing upgrade projects.
Comsys ADF reduces electrical losses, protects sensitive equipment, and supports grid compliance – without disrupting plant operations.
Modern treatment facilities face rising expectations on environmental performance. Electricity use is one of the largest contributors to both operating costs and carbon emissions in water and wastewater processing. Yet poor power quality, a major driver of energy waste, is rarely addressed.
Comsys ADF cleans the power your equipment depends on, reducing losses, improving stability, and enabling measurable progress toward municipal climate commitments.
While harmonics compliance is mandatory, how you achieve it determines how efficiently your plant operates. ADF not only meets IEEE 519 requirements – it increases pump efficiency, lowers lifetime energy costs, and reduces stress on electrical equipment, helping municipalities reinvest savings into upgrades, expansion, and sustainability initiatives.
Higher electrical efficiency means less energy wasted as heat — directly lowering your carbon footprint. ADF reduces unnecessary load on VFDs and pumps, decreasing cooling needs, extending equipment lifecycles, and helping water treatment plants transition toward greener, smarter operations without increasing cost or complexity.
As communities grow and environmental standards evolve, treatment plants must adapt. ADF’s parallel design allows one unit to support multiple drives, simplifying upgrades, reducing space requirements, and lowering the total environmental impact of expansion. Future sustainability investments become easier and more affordable.
Power quality improvements play a crucial role in creating a more efficient, resilient, and sustainable electrical infrastructure. By addressing harmonics and optimizing energy use, businesses can achieve several long-term environmental and cost advantages:
Lower carbon footprint from more efficient power use
More reliable equipment reduces waste and downtime
Lower cooling requirements and electrical losses
Better grid behavior supports the wider community
Sustainable choice without increasing costs
