The development of new technologies in the area of network sectorisation and water quality meters is one of the main lines of work of Magtel’s R&D&i Division.

The Pontificia Universidad Católica de Perú (PUCP), with the help of Magtel, has developed the project MONICA RESIDUAL, a wastewater quality monitoring station.
This initiative tackles one of Peru’s biggest problems: industrial wastewater management. In this regard, MONICA RESIDUAL enables the discharge source to be known, to award responsibilities thereon and to determine whether the amount has exceeded the admissible limits.
Rosa Rucano Taya of the Magtel Perú R&D&i Division supervises the latest works of a project that has been partially championed by the National Innovation Programme for Competitivity and Productivity.
In 2011, it was estimated that almost 27% of generated wastewater received no kind of treatment prior to its final disposal, which represented a serious environmental pollution problem. A simple and economical way of dealing with these problems that does not entail installing costly treatment plants is to control the release of contaminants at strategic points of the sanitation network, paying special attention to industrial sources. Today there is no system with real-time alerts on the existence of such releases and this is where Magtel has proposed a technological and innovative solution to an unresolved problem.

Execution of the DEUTRO project has now begun, through which untreated water will be dealt with, together with MONICA Y MONICA RESIDUAL covering the comprehensive water cycle, with which it will be possible to detect and predict eutrofication and similar processes in reservoirs.
