Drinking Water Network Contamination
ColiMinder Mobile deployed to scan an entire drinking water network — contamination source localized rapidly, boil water order reduced by approximately 2 weeks.
The Challenge
Unknown contamination sources in the drinking water network led to prolonged boil water orders and operational uncertainty. Traditional testing methods made it difficult to quickly localize the issue.
The Solution
ColiMinder Mobile was deployed to scan the entire network with high-frequency measurements, enabling rapid narrowing of affected areas. This approach significantly accelerated root cause identification.
Benefits
- Boil water order reduced by ~2 weeks
- Faster response to contamination events
- Increased public trust
