1 "Pure water is the best of gifts that man to man can bring" Technical English - II 8 th week Supply and Conveyance Systems stress will increase in many areas by 2025 due to growing water use and rising temperatures. 1.1 billion of the poorest people in our world lack the most basic stuff of life: safe drinking water water demand / water stress / physical water scarcity / economic water scarcity From ancient times humans have tried to manage G water and to bring it to their homes. to stay alive, to grow vegetables, to clean our body and clothes, to generate electricity, to distinguish fire, to process industrial activities Domestic water usage aquaculture / domestic / industrial / irrigation / livestock / mining & oil / public supply / thermoelectric power Homa aqueduct from ancient water conveyance system of Side. This picture was taken in 1980, during the construction site visit, which was arranged for civil engineering students, of Oymapınar Dam at the Manavgat River Basin, in Antalya region. 1

5 The term water distribution can refer to any system that transports water from a source to a user and the system are intended to deliver water at all times. It will refer to systems of closed pipes flowing full water to municipal, industrial and fire protection customers. These systems vary greatly in size and complexity from systems with only a handful of pipes to those with millions of components and from pipes only a few inches in diameter to pipes that a human can easily walk through. system are constructed provide water in sufficient quantity to user at an suitable pressure and quality as economically as possible. Because individual components of system can fail water distribution are designed with a great deal of redundancy so that the system can perform adequately even some individual components are out of service. useful storage / inlet / outlet / drain / overflow / elevated tank / service reservoir water distribution / closed pipes / pipe and components / redundancy / adequately distribution systems are constructed and operated by water utilities which may be owned by a public entity but operated by private firms under some contractual arrangement. While water source development and water treatment may be more visible components of an overall water supply system, the water distribution system often represent the largest capital investment for utility. According to studies distribution systems generally account for more than 80 percent of the capital associated with water utility investment. The major portion of water distribution systems is buried underground and is not fully understood or appreciated by customers who simply know that when they open the tap water comes out. However there are numerous components that must work together to deliver water. public entity / private firms / capital investment / buried pipes / tap water KOZANOĞLU, C.

Inflow is storm water that enters the sewer system from storm drain connections, roof leaders, or through manhole covers Storm water: Runoff resulting from rainfall and snowmelt. sewer / storm sewer /combined sewer overflow / treated water / influent / effluent sanitary / domestic / predominate / infiltration / leaking joints / porous /snowmelt Solids - ion, molecule, colloidal, suspended solids, etc. Biodegradable Organics -proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. They are measured most commonly in terms of BOD (biochemical oxygen demand), and COD (chemical oxygen demand) Refractor Organics - Surfactants, phenols, and agricultural pesticides Priority Pollutants - Carcinogenic and toxic organic and inorganic compounds Pathogens - Pathogenic organisms Nutrients - Nitrogen and Phosphorus, along with carbon Heavy metals - from commercial and industrial activities Dissolved organics - calcium, sodium, and sulfate as a result of water use Proteins 65% 99.9% Fats 15% Domestic Sewage Organics 70% Solids 0.1% Inorganics 30% Carbohydrates 25% Metals 15% Salts 35% Grit 50% colloidal / biodegradable / refractor / carcinogenic / nutrients / dissolved organics domestic sewage /organic / inorganic/ proteins / fats / carbohydrates / grit Physical Residue settle able, suspended and dissolved solids, Temperature Color & Odor Chemical Inorganic ph, Nutrients, Toxicity Organics phenols, oxygen demands (TOC, BOD, COD) Wastewater plants for municipalities are usually designed for a flow rate that will occur from 10 to 25 years in the future. This requires a population projection for the design period and estimate of the wastewater flow per capita for the future period. For industries, projection is 5 to 10 years. Because industries prefer stagewise expansions due to uncertainty of the future market and less initial expense. residue / temperature / color & odor / inorganic / nutrients / toxicity / organics population projection / design period / floe per capita / stagewise / uncertainty 6
