Editorial

The laying out of underground water and sewage pipes is a task by itself, but keeping up with its maintenance is taking it to another level.

In accordance with this, ADS is now able to detect leaks in pipes by implementing a signal processing algorithm, allowing the leak to come up instantly, and get located.

On the front end, BioShaft Water Technology Inc. has launched a new product line, namely Hans BioShaft Packaged System that is mobile and easy to install. This is useful for situations that require immediate attention.
