Smart Water Grid system, in relation to both the key operational aspects of a water distribution system (asset management, leak management, water quality monitoring) and the customers’ end (automated meter reading and water conservation). The expected benefits of a Smart Water Management are the following
Reduce None Revenue Water “NRW” for distribution network.
Real-time monitoring of asset condition for preventive maintenance.
Real-time pressure and water quality monitoring to enhance planning and network operations. Real-time sensor and meter data allow WMS to monitor the hydraulic and water quality situation throughout the network.
Leaks can be located promptly to minimize water losses, and stress in pipes can be detected early so that actions can be taken to mitigate the risk of pipe bursts.
Pressure Management System : continuous monitoring of the water quality in the distribution pipelines also provides early warning of potential contamination. Automated valve operations can then respond by shutting valves in the affected areas to prevent flooding, further damages, water loss, or spreading of the contaminated water. Real time sensor data can also be used for calibration of hydraulic models, to replace the traditional calibration process, which is tedious, time-consuming and expensive.
Real-time water consumption information to help customers conserve water. Automated meter readings and smart water efficient gadgets provide real-time feedback on water and energy usage to customers.
