Rivers and Natural Assets, UK

​

Rivers are both complex ecosystems and valuable natural resources. Polluted river water can have a harmful effect on wildlife, and can increase the cost of treating extracted water for drinking.

​

However, rivers across Europe face many challenges. Damaging nutrients from agricultural run-off or sewage overflows can have a negative impact on water quality, causing eutrophication and build-up of algae. Harmful bacteria can effect the health of wildlife and people. It is estimated that high levels of nitrates in river water can increase the cost of treatment by x40.

​

The ability to remotely and continuously monitor water in rivers or reservoirs has significant benefits over current processes – which typically require manual sample collection for lab analysis.

 

UnifAI is now working with two large UK water utilities to pilot UnifAI’s sensing and AI to provide:

 

  • An early warning system for harmful pollution events

  • Alerts for bathers and river users

  • Real-time pollution "track and trace"

  • Infrastructure and asset monitoring
