Singapore Start-up Releases Innovative Water Monitoring System Saving Customers $200,000/ year
Singapore start-up Membrane Instruments and Technology (MINT) has released a system that combines three monitoring processes into a single system. It pinpoints the exact location of contamination and reduces laboratory hassle. It has a MEM-Shield that can pinpoint with accuracy any faults in the water plant filters without having to bring the section of the water plants offline. Once a problem with the water quality is detected, the sensor switches to a more sensitive mode. According to MINT, S$200,000 a year can be saved by using this new system and 2 companies are already giving the new technology a try. Plans are in place to start trialing the technology in the US by the end of the year.
