March 2, 2021

Some equipment in wastewater installations such as ozone generators and UV filtration are sensitive to the high variability of harmonics.

Harmonic distortion is an electrical noise that occurs in power distribution networks especially within the water treatment plants. Harmonics are an underestimated condition that has been evaluated to cost billions of dollars for water treatment industries worldwide. This is mainly due to downtime, equipment failures, and malfunctioning systems.

There is no “one size fits all” solution in the mitigation of harmonics. ABB has more than a decade of experience in this field and can help you identify those issues in your installation.
