Your trusted support in the water and wastewater industry

Mitsubishi Electric has been a reliable partner in the water and wastewater industry for decades, supporting the implementation of many key projects. With our store of knowledge of water treatment and supply, wastewater collection and treatment and storm sewer management, we have an excellent understanding of our customers' needs and challenges.

Our experience in managing complex systems that combine equipment from different brands enables us to provide effective support both in the construction of new networks and in the upgrade of existing systems. We are constantly optimising our hardware and software, responding to the dynamic needs of the market.

Our solutions enable the automated and reliable operation of complex systems serving large areas of water supply. We implement automation supported by artificial intelligence at every level: from individual devices to the management of entire enterprises.

We are with you at every step of the way

Water treatment is a complex process. It consists of flocculation and filtration, chemical treatment, multi-stage pumping, etc. Advanced control and management of these processes are key to ensuring an uninterrupted supply of water. 

Mitsubishi Electric helps water companies operate more efficiently and safely – our products and solutions are efficient, scalable and ready to connect to third-party equipment.

Wastewater treatment is an energy-intensive process. Mitsubishi Electric’s solutions not only optimise and maintain the uninterrupted flow of operations with proven reliability, but also contribute to improved efficiency in every area from man-hours to energy savings.

Simulations based on digital twins, implemented with Mitsubishi Electric's solutions, make it possible to create and compare different scenarios and select the best one.

Flowing seamlessly, water distribution networks are the lifeline of modern cities. Connecting communities with clear, fresh water – that's the power of efficient distribution networks!  

Integrating Mitsubishi Electric's products and digital technologies into water distribution networks enhances real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and overall system efficiency.

Sewer networks are the unseen guardians of urban sanitation, ensuring a clean and safe tomorrow for all. Monitoring and controlling the flow within sewer networks is crucial for managing capacity and preventing backups, e.g., during heavy rainfall or increased usage.  

Multi-level automation, enabled by Mitsubishi Electric – from PLCs to edge processing – provides greater safety and lower maintenance costs for sewer networks.

Dams and weirs play an important role to regulate the flow of our water. Effective management of dams and weirs is crucial to ensure water supply, flood control and hydropower generation while maintaining structural integrity.

Mitsubishi Electric provides solutions that make the control of such structures more efficient and facilitate data-driven decisions.

Heavy rains, flood threats, sewage overspills, water source contamination: smart IoT platforms can help reduce the time it takes to identify and respond to these threats. Using live telemetry data, alerts and weather forecasts, operators can take proactive countermeasures.

Irrigation is agriculture's game-changer, turning dry fields into lush landscapes and ensuring crops get the perfect amount of water for peak growth.  

In large-scale agriculture, automation has a huge impact on the conservation of water, energy and labour. Our irrigation control solutions enable automatic monitoring and control of remote valves at night, when conditions are ideally suited to saving water, energy and valuable man-hours.

By unlocking the huge potential of seawater, desalination provides a supply of fresh water where it is needed most. The key challenge is balancing the high initial investment and operating costs of desalination with the need for affordable, accessible fresh water, and ensuring that desalinated water meets safety and quality standards.

Mitsubishi Electric has been implementing proven solutions to reduce the cost of desalination and make it a fully controllable process.

Digital wave in water treatment

The water industry is undergoing big changes due to digitalisation. Digital transformation includes control of equipment and entire networks, as well as real-time data reception and processing. This opens up new opportunities.

Digitalisation empowers the water industry to maximise available potential. It allows for faster detection of problems and their immediate resolution. Access to current data enables predictive maintenance to prevent major failures. By analysing historical data, we are better able to learn from our mistakes and assess the effectiveness of operations. Digital modelling makes it possible to compare different scenarios and improve planning and operational efficiency. With digitalisation the water industry is more efficient and resilient to potential stresses in the future.

This is a technological step forward towards sustainable water management for future generations.

SMKL: your compass in digital transformation

Implementing digital solutions and automation in an enterprise can be a challenge. Mitsubishi Electric recommends a gradual introduction of new technologies – starting with individual machines or small groups of equipment, then expanding the scope as results are achieved.

  1. Easier investment decision: A smaller investment means less risk. By acting step by step, you offset the inconvenience of the high cost of a comprehensive modernisation.
  2. Reliable evaluation of effects: Incremental implementation allows you to accurately assess the impacts, costs, and economic benefits. This enables a precise estimation of the total cost of the investment.
  3. Experience and risk minimisation: Small implementations provide valuable experience that facilitates larger projects and reduces the risk of costly mistakes.

To make it easier to assess the maturity and scope of implementation, we created the SMKL (Smart Manufacturing Kaizen Level) model. Originally developed for the manufacturing industry, this transparent concept is perfect for the water sector too, as it guides utilities through the specific digital transformation process that exactly fits their business requirements – step by step.

Transform your business with Mitsubishi Electric towards a better, more efficient and innovative future.
