Installation Examples: Grid Tied Turbines: Palma Del Rio Water Tank Turbine - Case Study
The municipality of Palma del Rio (Spain) has a high tank to supply drinking water to around 22.000 people. To avoid excess pressure in the supply network, the tank outlet line has a pressure reducing valve where a significant amount of energy is dissipated 24 hours a day and 365 days a year, producing a significant amount of heat and ...

HDPE PIPE
WHAT IS HDPE PIPE? HDPE pipe (some called poly pipe) is a kind of High-density polyethylene made plastic pipe that is widely used for fluid and gas transfer. Due to many benefits of its raw material high-density polyethylene, Polyethylene pipe is often used to replace aging concrete or steel pipelines. With its innate feature high permeability and strong molecular bond, the HDPE pipe is ...

Chalaron Renewal Water saves 150,000 L drinking water per day by modulating pressure on its network - Case study
SIE Renom Chalaronne wanted to reduce losses in drinking water and increase its network performance, a goal which became increasingly critical in light of the Grenelle II Law. This law stipulates that network yield must be greater than 85% in urban areas and between 65% and 85% in rural areas. SIE Renom Chalaronne was able to use a combination of Hydreka products to optimize ...

Introducing pressure and number of connections into water loss indicators for French drinking water supply networks
In France, the system of performance indicators defined within the relevant regulations does not include indicators relating to pressure, or the number of connections. So, Irstea and Veolia Water decided to create a new system of water loss indicators designed for use in France and that would take into account these parameters. The study was initially carried out at District Metered Area (DMA) ...

Water pressure too low: Possible causes and remedy
In the physical sense, water pressure is the hydrostatic pressure in water. It increases with increasing water depth and is referred to as the water column and measured in meters of water column, mH2O or mWS for short. A meter of water column is about 0.10 bar. In everyday life, water pressure refers to the the force applied per unit area with which the fresh water - alternatively also called tap ...
