Controls Engineering Wins AECOM Automation System Contract

AECOM has awarded a contract to GreenHouse Holdings subsidiary Controls Engineering (CEI) to provide control system engineering services for a groundwater remediation project in California, US.

The project will involve the implementation of AECOM’s in-situ bioremediation system, which chemically remediates groundwater aquifers.

Under the contract, CEI will provide services such as control system engineering, programming, control panel design and fabrication, start-up support and training to manage 41 separate extraction / injection wells and chemical treatment compounds.

The extraction wells and booster pumps will use a VFD speed control to optimise energy use and improve overall efficiency.

The facility will be fully automated and allow remote monitoring and control through internet-based software.
