Abstract
A supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system has been developed to monitor and control microirrigation system performance. The microirrigation system had four types of filtration units and, placed after each one of them, twenty-four irrigation laterals using urban effluents. The SCADA system activated the irrigation system and the backwashing filter procedure. It also monitored pressure and flow at the filtration units and irrigation laterals to assess clogging problems and measure the consumed water volume in filter backwashing. The system was also prepared for remote access via Internet.
