Endress+Hauser; a leading Swiss based Process automation company has successfully installed its innovative EQMS at MIDC Ranjangaon's CETP. With this installation, E&M Division of MIDC Pune have pioneered in the domain of environmental technologies with this application of EQMS system at government facilitated CETP of Sub-division MIDC Ranjangaon.

Real time monitoring of these treatment systems helps in ensuring regulatory compliance and reduces the risk of effluents discharge. This EQMS based process automation has provided the MIDC executives a novel opportunity to observe the remote plants in real time and to guide the sub-divisional offices to efficiently execute their duties real time monitoring alerts the engineers if concentrations of effluents cross-regulatory levels. Online monitoring leads to cost savings by increasing the efficiency of the treatment process. The data captured from the instruments is collected at Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), New Delhi, Maharashtra Pollution Control Board (MPCB), Sion and MIDC office at Pune.
