FlocBot
FlocBot provides Opti-Dose, a software platform that helps drinking water treatment plants analyze their existing operating and testing data to improve chemical dosing decisions and reduce costs. The software reveals relationships between water quality, dosing, and treatment results, generating recommendations based on a plant's own historical data without requiring new monitoring equipment. The company also develops automated jar testing hardware built on RoboJar technology for continuous flocculation monitoring.

Problem
Water treatment plants rely on manual floc observation and periodic jar testing to assess coagulation performance, which is subjective, time-consuming, and provides only intermittent snapshots of process conditions. This makes it difficult for operators to respond quickly to changing raw water quality, evaluate treatment changes effectively, or compare performance consistently over time.
Solution
FlocBot provides Opti-Dose, a software platform that analyzes a plant's historical operating and testing data to reveal what drives treatment performance and support more informed chemical dosing decisions. The software helps operators understand relationships between water quality, chemical dosing, and treatment results, and generates dosing recommendations based on the plant's own data. This approach requires no new monitoring equipment, as it works with data utilities already collect. The company also develops automated jar testing hardware, building on RoboJar technology, to provide objective, measurable data on floc formation and settling characteristics for plants seeking continuous flocculation monitoring.
Target Audience
Primary customers are drinking water treatment plant operators and utilities seeking practical tools for coagulation control and chemical dose optimization, as well as water treatment engineers and researchers evaluating flocculation performance.
