Application-Specific Metal Monitoring
Market Overview
The critical role of advanced water quality measurement
Industrial water processes increasingly require reliable, on-site metal monitoring to support compliance, risk management and operational control.
The Holland Sensor platform addresses defined use cases where laboratory workflows are too slow and classical inline sensors lack selectivity.
Initial focus lies in industrial wastewater streams with high regulatory pressure and process-critical metal control.
The Holland Sensor Platform Enables Application-Specific Metal Monitoring Across Industries.
Mizu® Flex is the first portable deployment of the platform. The examples below illustrate industrial applications. Additional metals and industries are continuously being explored.
Packaging Industry
Key metals: Zinc (Zn), Nickel (Ni)
Coating, surface treatment and metal packaging processes can introduce zinc and nickel into wastewaterstreams. Application-specific monitoring supports discharge compliance and stable production processes
Metal & Electro
Key metals: Zinc (Zn), Chromium (Cr)
Electroplating and steel processing involve zinc and chromium. Real-time monitoring helps manage emissions and maintain regulatory compliance.
Chemical Industry
Key metals: Zinc (Zn), Nickel (Ni)
Catalysts and polymer-related processes mayintroduce zinc and nickel into process water. Reliable monitoring supports compliance and process stability.
Construction & Infrastructure
Key metals: Zinc (Zn), Copper (Cu)
Runoff from treated surfaces and roofing materials often contains zinc and copper. Structured monitoring supports environmental compliance.
General Manufacturing
Key metals: Zinc (Zn), Nickel (Ni)
Metal finishing and machining generate zinc-and nickel-containing streams. Real-time insightimproves treatmentcontrol and discharge assurance.
Printing & Graphic Industry
Key metals: Copper (Cu), Chromium (Cr)
Printing plates and pigments mayintroduce copperand chromium into wastewater. Rapid verification supports compliance and operational continuity.
