INOV researchers publish chapter in the book Internet of Things – The Call of the Limit – Everything Smart Anywhere

Mário Nunes e Augusto Casaca (INOV), Rita Alves, Pedro Póvoa and José Botelho (Águas do Tejo Atlântico) sign the chapter Real Time Management of Energy Consumption in Water Resources Recovery Facilities with IoT Technologies in the book Internet of Things – The Call of the Edge – Everything Intelligent Everywhere, edited by Ovidiu Vermesan and Joël Bacquet and published by River Publishers.

This book provides an overview of the Internet of Things (IoT) – new ideas, concepts, research and innovation to enable the development of IoT technologies in a global context. It is part of a series covering the activities of the Internet of Things European Research Cluster (IERC).

The chapter deals with the management of energy consumption, in real time, in Water Resource Recovery Facilities as a decisive factor in the management of demand for consumption optimization solutions. The authors explore the implementation and development of energy meters designed for specific parameters, according to the processes and equipment characteristic of these facilities, with data transmission to a central platform.

The article highlights the results achieved within the R&D contract between INOV and Águas do Tejo Atlântico.
