Overview

Excessive infiltration and inflow (I/I) disrupts a wastewater utility in many ways. I/I can overload a collection system to the point of costly overflows; it causes higher operations and maintenance costs; and it can lead to treatment plant upsets.

CSi has the experience and expertise necessary to investigate and analyze infiltration and inflow, and to develop effective programs to mitigate its effects.

The goal of an effective I/I strategy is to determine the most cost effective strategy to reduce the impact of I/I on collection system performance. Built into every CSi I/I program is our wealth of engineering experience gained from treatment and collection system design, performance analysis, and rehabilitation design, as well as our experience with utility customer relations and regulatory agencies.

Infiltration and Inflow Analysis

CSi understands that a flowmeter investment is worth no more than the quality and clarity of the information it produces. To maximize our clients’ investments, CSi has developed an array of flow analysis tools and software to analyze pipe flow and storm events, identify trends, and ultimately to prioritize areas for subsequent I/I investigation and mitigation.

CSi has hands-on experience with a wide spectrum of flowmeters and software from proven manufacturers. We understand how to maximize the advantages of each flowmeter technology, to better suit the utility’s specific program needs.
