We would like to introduce a case where Company K, which operates a wastewater treatment plant, implemented an "IoT Equipment Monitoring System." The wastewater treatment plant needs to operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and it cannot be stopped because the decomposition is carried out by microorganisms. After the introduction of the IoT Equipment Monitoring System, it became possible to check the operational status of the pumps remotely, allowing for an understanding of the operating rate and changes in condition over time. Additionally, since the status can be checked without going to the site, the workload for maintenance inspections and patrol operations has been reduced.
