Summary: 
A UK engineering design company has developed a patented solid-state microwave waste water meter for water and sewage systems. Used to measure the volumetric or mass flow of waste water, sewage or trade effluent, a waste water flow meter works by measuring the amount of waste water that flows through, under or around flow meter sensors. The company is seeking distribution partners or companies to manufacture the meter under license.
Description: 
A UK engineering design company, with team skills in multiple areas of system design, mechanical, hardware, software design and 3D printing design has developed an innovative patented waste water meter for use by waste water and sewage companies to measure the flow of waste water or sewage within pipes in their specific network. The meter can be used to monitor water or sewage flow, and can also be used for fiscal billing purposes. It can record data of the flow of water and / or sewage inside the pipe, allowing the operator to be aware of any potential blockage or leakage. The meter is UK Government certified which is a requirement if it is to be used by companies in the UK involved with potentially harmful emissions or involved in environmental work, materials approved by and it is made from materials approved by the UK's Water Regulation Scheme. It uses non-intrusive microwave technologies, meaning no structural changes to pipe structure are required. It reads it's measurements in real time, so there is no delay in receiving data, enabling any repair to be conducted immediately, reducing waste water loss or damaging sewage leakage. The product comes in different sizes so that it can fit different diameters of pipes, and can be used to measure ultra low flow levels from as low as 200 litres per hour. Running on either battery, mains or solar power, the meter also contains an alarm to alert the operator of a blocked or partially blocked pipe. The company is looking for distribution partners or manufacturers to produce the meter under license.
Type (e.g. company, R&D institution…), field of industry and Role of Partner Sought: 
The company is looking to partner with distributors experienced in working with the water and sewage treatment sectors. They will also consider partnering with manufacturing businesses to produce the meters under license.
