In Canada, small-scale wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), particularly those located in remote communities, demonstrate a significant need for wastewater treatment monitoring systems with continuous, real-time capabilities. A lack of such continuous monitoring poses a significant threat to public health and the environment. Currently, Northern and remote communities are disproportionately at risk due to factors such as aging facilities and the unavailability of qualified maintenance staff. A.U.G. Signals Ltd. has developed an Intelligent Water Surveillance system for drinking water, which provides accurate, fast-response solutions to end users. This technology has helped 19 First Nations communities in Ontario achieve real-time continuous drinking water monitoring. Following the successful application of its drinking water quality monitoring system, the company is pursuing the development of a modified prototype for use in municipal wastewater streams. In collaboration with Fleming College's Centre for Advancement of Water and Wastewater Technologies (CAWT), the project seeks to build, set-up and operate the new apparatus, as well as identify and address inefficiencies to optimize its performance. This work would result in a new line of commercial products that speak to the pressing need for remote water quality monitoring solutions through innovative technologies.

在加拿大，小型污水处理厂（WWTP），特别是那些位于偏远社区的污水处理厂，显示出对具有连续实时能力的污水处理监控系统的巨大需求。缺乏这种持续监测对公共卫生和环境构成重大威胁。目前，由于设施老化和缺乏合格的维修人员等因素，北方和偏远社区面临的风险不成比例。A.U.G. Signals Ltd.开发了一种用于饮用水的智能水监控系统，为最终用户提供准确，快速响应的解决方案。这项技术帮助安大略的19个原住民社区实现了实时连续的饮用水监测。在成功应用其饮用水质量监测系统后，该公司正在开发一种用于城市废水流的改良原型。该项目与弗莱明学院的水和废水技术促进中心（CAWT）合作，旨在建立，设置和操作新设备，以及识别和解决效率低下问题，以优化其性能。这项工作将产生一系列新的商业产品，通过创新技术满足对远程水质监测解决方案的迫切需求。
