INTERMITTENT SUPPLY
Interrupted supply Damage to the network
CONSUMPTION + LEAKAGE > PRODUCTION CAPACITY
![Page 3: 19 presentation waterlosses workshop cmi](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052704/568c3be61a28ab0235abdfc3/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
IMPACT
Air enters the system when closed
Re-opening supply damages the pipes
Possible infiltration of contaminants
Very low quality of service
INVARIABLY CAUSED BY HIGH LEAKAGE
Disruption to the customers
Installation of customer storage tanks

PRESSURE CONTROL Objective:
Avoid the formation of new leaks
Lower existing leakage level
Twin-pilot PRV
PRV Controller
Control the filling of the tanks

Final av 5,7 l/s
Initial av 9,8 l/s
RESULTS - DMA
![Page 14: 19 presentation waterlosses workshop cmi](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052704/568c3be61a28ab0235abdfc3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
RESULTS Southern Italy
Initial leakage level (intermittent) = 57.3 l/s
Final leakage level (continuous) = 8.8 l/s
Leakage recovered = 48.5 l/s (1.5 million m3/yr)
Economic saving = 500,000 euro / year

CONCLUSIONS
The need for intermittent supply is invariably due
to high leakage
The solution is to recover the leakage
Pressure control is essential to control the
operation of the network and avoid the formation of
new leaks
With the application of a hydraulic model it is
possible to create a permanent leakage control
system even in very complex networks
