How advanced automation and scalable designs empower controls engineers to address global challenges, from energy sustainability to water purification
Innovative approaches to water management by Sweetch Energy in France and Spray Engineering Devices in India are reshaping how factories and plants handle water recovery, reuse and purification, leveraging advanced automation technologies from Rockwell Automation.
Control reported at Rockwell Automation’s 2024 Automation Fair event that Sweetch focuses on osmotic energy generation, mixing freshwater and saltwater to generate electricity through ionic nano-osmotic diffusion, a process that relies on precision control systems and real-time analytics to optimize energy output and minimize environmental impact.
With its modular design and scalable technology, Sweetch's equipment integrates Rockwell's PowerFlex drives, CompactLogix controllers and FactoryTalk Optix for remote operation, ensuring adaptability, cybersecurity and efficiency as the company looks to expand globally. This cutting-edge solution aligns with the increasing demand for cost-effective, reliable and sustainable energy solutions in the power sector, according to this article from Control.
