Save Water, Energy, and Costs Using Pressure Management
By GrundfosThis article focuses on the effectiveness of pressure management, addressing issues like reducing Non-Revenue Water (NRW), improving energy efficiency, and cutting operation and maintenance costs. It emphasizes the significance of precise predictive models for burst frequency and suggests that extended asset life is expected to be a significant benefit of pressure management. Topics discussed in this article include challenges faced by municipalities regarding high NRW levels and inefficient management of distribution system pressures, which lead to excess leakage and infrastructure damage. The article acknowledges emerging concerns regarding water scarcity, water quality, and energy costs. Despite these challenges, there's an expectation for the water market to grow rapidly, prompting the need for new and efficient water solutions. Pressure management is recognized as crucial for optimal water supply and distribution system management, with proven benefits including water conservation, reduced bursts and leaks, lower repair costs, and improved customer service. The article will explain these benefits using the latest research, best practices, and advanced tools, focusing on three main areas: Non-Revenue Water, Energy Efficiency, and Operation and Maintenance Costs.
