Water loss and pressure management workshop 2015
Improving stewardship of water resources through innovation in preventing water loss and reduction in non-revenue water.
Water utilities can control losses in their operations by compiling an annual water audit of their supply operations, and by implementing programs to identify and contain inefficiencies. Such programs include leakage management, meter testing and enforcement against unauthorised consumption of water.
Experts from Joburg Water and JOAT Group will present leading and cutting edge strategies to water loss control, metering and advanced pressure management. the course is designed to end the scourge of non-revenue water affecting many SA municipalities.
Workshop objectives and benefits:
• To discuss methods for evaluating the levels of real and apparent water losses and different reasons beyond the losses.
• To discuss recent developments and technologies for reducing water losses to economic acceptable levels
• To discuss water quality issues in water distribution systems
• Participants will get a comprehensive package of water system auditing and loss control training
• Gain critical skills to implement water loss and planning loss reduction strategies,
• Get the benefit of being introduced to cutting edge pressure management and leakage management technologies
• Participants will be equipped with techniques to save water and improve revenues
• Deliberate and get expertise on notable points and practical application of NRW reporting
• Spend can be claimed under the skills development variable (Category F) of the BBBEE as certificates will; be given to participants
Target audience:
This course is geared towards anyone who deals with operation of water distribution systems, as well as the design of such systems. This includes engineers, technical and project managers and controllers of water pipeline systems and process installations who want to upgrade their understanding of pressure management and pressure transients.
• Water loss control technicians
• Water loss researchers
• Civil engineers
• Water distribution network engineers
• Non-revenue water crews
• Municipal water engineers
• Water plant operators and engineers
