Company's Solutions

Applying revolutionary, digitally-controlled above-ground equipment, a harvesting kit is introduced into a network pipe section resulting in immediate harvesting of water loss in the section. The solution is a game-changing, low-cost, durable trenchless repair solution for accelerated bulk reduction of water loss levels, averaging 93% efficiency.

Take an example of a medium size city with a supply of 170,000 m3 of water per day, with 2,000 km of distribution mains and a total of 35% water loss. Within just three years of applying 8-10 intervention teams on a one-time basis, 55,000 m3 of water per day may be continuously harvested, i.e., a 50% increase in consumable water coupled with single-digit water loss levels!

Prominent Case Study

A water-loss harvesting intervention was performed for A2A, a leading Italian multi-utility serving the City of Brescia and the province. The city has thousands of km of old water pipes, and many of the steel and cast-iron pipes are very leaky. Typically, water harvesting is positioned to be applied across the entire water distribution network. In this case study, however, we focus on just three sections of pipe totaling 1,010 meters with very high water losses. Pipe material was cast iron, and following measurements taken during the intervention indicated the presence of four separate leaks with the following levels of loss: 1,700 liters-per-hour, 500 liters-per-hour, 4,800 liters-per-hour, and 1,900 liters-per-hour, totaling 8,900 liters-per-hour. The leaks were completely sealed (zero water loss) within three days after performing three separate water-loss harvesting interventions, saving 89.8 million liters per year or 0.25 MLD.
