Visualization and control of the storage and use of biogas at the wastewater treatment plant in the Polish city of Rybnik

February 24, 2025 | Reliance SCADA

The water treatment plant is located in the northern part of Rybnik, near the Rybnik Power Station and Lake Rybnik (serving as a water reservoir).

Control system

In 2012–2013, the CONTROL-MAX and ELEKTROSKAN companies instaled an independent system for the control and monitoring of the storage and use of biogas at the facility. The system is based on a single Modicon M340 controller and the Reliance SCADA system.

The Reliance system is used by the plant's operating personnel in the control room (Reliance Control Server) and – to access data – in the management building (Reliance View). Its task is to supervise the processes of biogas use and storage, including alarms, control commands, measurement results, real-time and historical trends, and quantity reports.
