TPS offers smart water and waste water technologies that remotely act as a preventive pollution and water loss.
TPS offers an innovative smart leak device called sewage spill reporting monitors that act as a security feature adopting a PAAS cloud system to remotely detect waste water levels rising inside a sewer manhole to then; 1.Report a potential overflow 2.Tracks to find local nearby plumbers who would quickly arrive to unblock thus preventing sewer pollution affecting poor communities and averting disease risk so associated with sewage overflow. We have created smart devices to service our clientele and contribute immensely in reducing water waste in the country. Currently 55% of our rivers and dams are currently polluted by overflowing sewage which impacts on the environment,health and development potential of poor communities. And because of poor health, many families are then kept in poverty . One estimate puts the costs at 3.5 billion per year with the problem rising each year by 24.5%.
