Automating Aqua Consultants conceptual design process for a mid sized WWTP

Working with the Transcend Design Generator (TDG), Aqua Consultants was able to model individual process elements and entire process streams with a quick turnaround (days vs. months).

Background

Problem

A regional water utility was exploring options at a series of existing and proposed STWs to cope with future growth and existing known problems.
On highly congested sites, where footprint was at a premium, accurate concept designs were essential.

Solution

Aqua Consultants ran TDG

Working with the Transcend Design Generator(TDG), Aqua was able to model individual process elements and entire process streams with a quick turnaround (days vs. months).
Aqua was able to easily use the ouput material and equipment takeoffs to automatically generate costing for each of the scenarios evaluated.

Results

Key Wins

On average, Aqua Consultants estimates using TDG saved them 80% of the cost for generating designs and cost estimations.
TDG allowed Aqua Consultants to generate a whole concept site from just a few inputs.
Digital Engineering

“The Transcend Design Generator represents the future of capital planning and master planning efforts for WWRF’s. We’re looking forward to working more closely with the Transcend team on subsequent projects.”
