Modern Water Treatment Technology Based on Industry 4.0.

Access to clean water remains a critical global challenge, particularly in under-resourced regions. This study introduces an autonomous water treatment system leveraging Industry 4.0 technologies, including advanced smart sensors, real-time monitoring, and automation. The system employs a multi-stage filtration process-mechanical, chemical, and UV sterilization-to treat water with varying contamination levels. Smart sensors play a pivotal role in ensuring precise control and adaptability across the entire process. Experimental validation was conducted on three water types: pond, river, and artificially contaminated water. Results revealed significant reductions in key contaminants such as PPM, pH, and electrical conductivity, achieving water quality standards set by the WHO. Statistical analyses confirmed the system's reliability and adaptability under diverse conditions. These findings underscore the potential of smart, sensor-integrated, decentralized water treatment systems to effectively address global water security challenges. Future research could focus on scalability, renewable energy integration, and long-term operational durability to enhance applicability in remote areas.
