PAULA is a small water treatment plant for the production of hygienically safe drinking water, even in remote areas. PAULA was developed by two German engineers, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Frechen and Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Max Preussner at Kassel University, Germany. Prof. Preussner has been working in Vietnam since 2004 and managed the installation of the first two prototypes of PAULA in the Dong Thap Province.

The system undergoes constant, continuous research with the goal of improving both efficiency and performance. PAULA is the enhanced and enlarged “sister” of “PAUL the Water Backpack”, a well-known disaster-relief device that was also developed by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Frechen.

The Thermo Scientific AquaSensors AquaClear low-range turbidimeter system delivers accurate turbidity measurements in drinking water applications and other process applications to monitor water quality.

The AquaClear digital version is part of the Thermo Scientific™ AquaSensors™ DataStick™ family of measurement products. The DataStick system can be configured with any AquaSensors sensor head and can communicate directly with industrial computer systems using a variety of communications adapters.
