At Aarhus Vand, one of our primary focuses is on developing new and innovative solutions to improve the sustainability and efficiency of the water sector.
Aarhus Vand supplies drinking water of the best quality merely by filtering and aerating the water on its way to the citizens’ taps. However, we can only do this because we think ahead and always take the groundwater into consideration.
The rector and a group of educators from Ghana Water Institute received instructions in pipe and leakage detection on Aarhus Vand's new leak detection field. They became more adept at using equipment which they can use to proactively search for leaks and thus reduce water loss.
Dryp can help prevent overflow, save the water utilities millions to maintenance of wastewater treatment facilities and ensure a cleaner water environment.
The company Zediment delivers drone-based scannings of the capacity of reservoirs at wastewater treatment plants and in stormwater basins. This solution is the first of its kind and can save the water utility huge operational costs.
Water utilities in Denmark are struggling with rising problems of hydrogen sulphide in the sewers. To solve these problems, Aarhus Vand has partnered up with Envidan and made a sustainable filter that uses mussel shells to break down the hydrogen sulphide without chemicals.
HeyPipe™ is a new digital platform that across all supply types gives unique 3D documentation of the underground infrastructure. Aarhus Vand has founded the company in order to receive better and more valid data.
In 2016, we entered into a Strategic Sector Cooperation with Aarhus Municipality and the city of Udaipur in India about development on the infrastructure of their water sector. The three Strategic Sector Cooperations have recently been renewed for four more years with a new grant of 56 million DKK.
In Denmark, we use approx. 100 liters of water per inhabitant per day – in South Africa the figure is 270 liters. Water loss is the explanation for the large water consumption. Since 2017, Aarhus has cooperated with the city of Tshwane in South Africa transferring knowledge on drinking water and wastewater management.
In 2019, together with Aarhus Municipality, we initiated a project to create improvements in the water area in the Ghanaian port city of Tema. The cooperation aims to ensure better handling of wastewater and reduction of water losses for the benefit of health and the environment.
Managing the sewage system in the city of Tema in Ghana previously relied on a plan on physical paper. Through the cooperation with Aarhus Vand a digitalized plan in the shape of an app has been developed enabling quick updates on data.
A group of drinking water experts from Aarhus Vand performed pump tests of existing boreholes in the city of Tshwane in South Africa. Several of the boreholes showed high performance and they seem to have more capacity which could potentially reduce the city’s import of drinking water.
14 business partners have joined together in an EU project to create "Water Living Lab" - an interdisciplinary knowledge and innovation environment that provides the opportunity to develop, test and demonstrate water technology solutions that support a sustainable and resource-conscious supply.
For the past 1½ years, Grundfos has been testing a software product in Aarhus Vand's innovation environment, Water Living Lab. Hands-on experience has great value for Grundfos' own dialogue with customers, and Aarhus Vand has gained knowledge about intelligent software.
Today, when water pipes are replaced and reassembled, it is performed manually in an excavation. In the future, a robot will be a blacksmith's extended arm and connect water pipes.
