Chemical Dosing Optimizer Bot
AI 88%Live in demoMost plants dose to a fixed setpoint sized for worst-case raw water, which means paying for overdose on every ordinary day. The Dosing Optimizer models demand from raw-water quality, flow and temperature and recommends the lowest dose that keeps residual, turbidity and CT compliance inside the target band — while tracking chemical inventory and lead-time exposure.

Dose targets by chemical feed
The recommended dose is the lowest that holds the utility-defined compliance band across the forecast horizon.
Sodium hypochlorite · WTP-1
AI 90%BasisRaw TOC down 12%, temp 24.6 °C, CT margin 3.1×
Alum coagulant · WTP-1
AI 87%BasisRaw turbidity 4.2 NTU steady 72 hrs; jar-test curve supports 29 mg/L
Polymer · WRF dewatering
AI 83%BasisCake solids holding 22.4%; centrate TSS has headroom
Sodium hypochlorite · WRF
AI 95%BasisDay tank at 26% — dosing held flat until delivery confirmed
Fixed setpoint vs modeled optimum · NaOCl, WTP-1
The gap between the two lines is chemical you're paying for without buying compliance margin.
Tank levels vs lead time
Levels sourced from AIWTS TankChek telemetry where no plant instrumentation exists.
Guardrails
- Compliance band is set by the utility, never by the model.
- Recommendations suspend automatically during raw-water upset events.
- Advisory-only feed changes; the operator confirms every setpoint move.
