About SmartSewer
SmartSewer.org is the independent resource for intelligent wastewater infrastructure. We aggregate research, track city deployments, compare vendors, and explain the technology transforming what happens underground.
Why This Exists
America's sewer infrastructure is crumbling. The EPA estimates $1 trillion in needed investment over the next 20 years. 75,000+ sanitary sewer overflows happen annually, sending untreated wastewater into rivers, lakes, and basements.
But there's good news: IoT sensors, AI, and real-time control systems are proving that smart technology can solve these problems at a fraction of the cost of traditional infrastructure. Cities like South Bend, Louisville, and Grand Rapids have already saved hundreds of millions of dollars.
The problem? This information is scattered across academic papers, EPA documents, vendor marketing materials, and local news stories. There's no central place for a city engineer, utility director, or technology evaluator to learn what works, who makes it, and where it's been deployed.
That's what SmartSewer.org is for.
