Barra da Tijuca WWTS

Supervision and Control System

Altus partnered with Comápice Equipamentos e Sistemas Ltda. to develop the Supervision and Control System for the Barra da Tijuca Wastewater Treatment Plant (ETE), for the end client CEDAE in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Retrofit of the SDSC at Barra da Tijuca ETE

This large-scale project is part of CEDAE’s PSBJ – the Barra and Jacarepaguá Sanitation Program. In addition to its role as an operational tool, the Supervision and Control System (SSC) provides essential, consolidated data for maintenance, management planning, and operational control of the system.

CLP Altus

Altus PLC

This solution relies on Altus programmable controller technology for data collection and processing at the facility

Acesso rápido às informações do sistema

Instant access to system information

Among the benefits of the Automation System is the ability to quickly access consolidated data required for maintenance, including:
- Operating times of pumps, grids, and blowers
- Management planning and control of operations at the plant
- Reduced operating costs, as automated controls require fewer operators per shift
- High reliability of installed equipment

Manutenção preventiva e sistema de diagnósticos

Preventive maintenance and diagnostics system

The Altus solution enables a highly effective preventive maintenance system, making it easier to track equipment performance over time. The system also provides access to equipment diagnostics, simplifying issue identification and supporting scheduled equipment rotation.

Escopo técnico da solução aplicada

Technical scope of the solution

The solution delivered by Altus includes the following equipment and services:
- AL and Ponto Series Programmable Controllers (Profibus DP remote units)
- Ethernet Network Interface (AL-3405 card)
- Profibus-DP Master Network Interface (AL-3406 card)
- Consulting services for system architecture design
- Training in programming and maintenance of programmable controllers

Supervisão e comando remoto através do CCO

Remote supervision and control via the CCO

The Altus PLC that manages the system is connected to the CCO (Operations Control Center) via an Ethernet TCP/IP network. Some remote units are connected through a PROFIBUS-DP network using optical cables, while others use standard cables.

At the CCO, operators can monitor all subsystems, analyze each unit in the process, and intervene in real-time by turning equipment on or off and adjusting control setpoints by clicking on icons within the configured screens and interfaces.
