1. Operational Challenge
Effluent Treatment Plants (ETP) contain corrosive acids, toxic industrial sludge, and hazardous chemical sumps where human diving is strictly prohibited.
2. Robotic Solution & Deployment
Deployed chemically retrofitted ROV Genesis into active ETP neutralization sumps, inspecting wall liners and submerged pipes without draining chemical liquids.
3. Technical Methodology
The ROV entered through access manholes, using chemically inert seals and tethers to log concrete liner corrosion and joint leakage.
4. Execution Workflow
5. Project Results & Impact
Inspected 3 active chemical sumps with zero plant downtime, identifying localized liner erosion for targeted patching during scheduled maintenance.

Cooling Tower Sump Inspection
Cooling tower sumps are confined underwater environments where conventional inspection methods often involve significant safety risks and operational challenges. Draining sumps causes massive refinery downtime costing millions, while manual diver entry is hazardous due to chemical presence and active suction.
Water Storage Tank Inspection
Drinking water reservoirs require periodic structural audits. Draining tanks disrupts municipal supply lines and wastes millions of gallons of treated water, while diver entry risks drinking water contamination.
Bridge Piles Inspection
Bridge pile foundations undergo intense river currents and underwater scour. Mud-heavy waters render visual diver checks ineffective, and swift currents endanger human divers.
