Science and Technology Daily | New "Cloud-Chain-Edge" Operation Model Helps Water Industry Move Toward Intelligence 2025-05-28

On the occasion of World Environment Day, Science and Technology Daily reported that Hangzhou Beishui Yunfu Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Beishui Yunfu") has launched a novel "Cloud-Chain-Edge" operation model, successfully pioneering a new path to advance the intelligent transformation of the water industry.

The "Cloud-Chain-Edge" model focuses on enhancing the efficiency of urban water asset management. By leveraging innovative operational frameworks and digital intelligence technologies, it drives high-quality development in the water sector and may become a key solution to overcome current industry challenges. When discussing this model, Wang Li, General Manager of Beishui Yunfu, explained that "Cloud-Chain-Edge" represents a groundbreaking theoretical and operational paradigm for water management, comprising standardized edges, professional chains, and intelligent cloud services. Its essence lies in restructuring traditional industry production relationships and productivity through digitalization, intelligentization, and ecological integration, thereby enhancing operational efficiency, reducing costs, and promoting sustainable development.

Currently, the water industry faces challenges such as low overall operational efficiency and high costs associated with digital transformation. In response, Beishui Yunfu has introduced a range of digital products and services. For instance, the Wastewater Operation System (BE-SED) offers customers a flexible subscription service with basic, standard, and premium versions, enabling rapid deployment and low-cost application. Wang Li emphasized that by sharing their digital transformation achievements with the industry, Beishui Yunfu is essentially transforming the capabilities of leading enterprises into accessible resources, thereby lowering the barriers to digital transformation for small and medium-sized water companies. The company's independently developed predictive process control system, which synergistically combines dynamic mechanistic models and machine learning algorithms, achieves accurate forecasting of water quality indicators. It automatically generates optimization strategies for chemical dosing and aeration adjustments, successfully helping numerous water plants reduce operational costs.

Innovation remains a core driver of development in the wave of intelligent transformation within the water industry. "Little Blue Robot" BE-EMR is one of the innovative achievements born under this trend at Beishui Yunfu. It is reported that the "Little Blue Robot" has been successfully deployed in over 40 projects, with a total daily water treatment capacity exceeding 3 million tons, and has delivered significant application results.

The "Cloud-Chain-Edge" model facilitates the transition from decentralized management to integrated operations within certain regions. This model effectively consolidates resources, enables the sharing of high-value talent, optimizes management costs, and helps eliminate disparities in operational standards across projects.
