1 STO WATER LOSSES Reduce NRW to less than 10 % through integrated NRW management By Klavs Høgh & Kristian Rokkjær

2 NRW in South Africa at 40 % A burning platform RSA is divided into 9 Water Management Areas, demand divided into Agriculture, Domestic and Industrial 61/27/3 South Africa Global NRW 5-96 % NRW > 10 % is considered high 2 roperty of NIRAS

3 Measures to Reduce NRW...Starting with leakage reductions Baseline Active Leakage Control Leakage ressure Management Speed & Quality of Repairs ipeline Management & Rehabilitation Unavoidable Leakage Level Time 3 roperty of NIRAS

4 The LEAKman Concept The main Technology partners Grundfos umps ressure Optimization AVK Valves ressure Optimization Schneider Electric SCADA Hydraulic Modelling Kamstrup Customer metering Smart Meters Bulk Meters Leif Koch Leak Detection and Leak Location Noise Loggers 4 roperty of NIRAS
