Smart City Infrastructure And Solutions - Netsol Water Solutions

Cities are the engines as well as the backbones of growth for the economy of every nation across the world. A large chunk of the world’s current population lives in urban areas and contributes a major share of the World’s GDP. With increasing urbanization, urban areas are expected to house larger % of the world’s population as well as contribute to a larger chunk of the world’s GDP in the next 10 years.

What does this call for?
Such a massive and accelerated process of urbanization requires comprehensive development, sophisticated automation, and integrated centralized control of physical, institutional, social as well as economic infrastructures.

All these are of paramount importance in improving the quality of life as well as attracting people, entrepreneurs, industries, startups, and investors to the City, setting in motion a virtuous cycle cum path of growth as well as development. Development of Smart Cities is the main step that a nation can take in that direction.
The objective of the Smart Cities Program is as follows:
  • to promote cities that provide core infrastructure
  • to give a decent life to the residents
  • to give a clean and sustainable environment and
  • the application of ‘Smart’ Solutions to the City Infrastructure Management.

The focus of a Smart City will be on sustainable as well as inclusive development programs. The core idea is to look at compact areas, create a repeatable as well as a replicable model. This model should then be used to convert other cities into smart cities too. The systems developed herein should be capable of replication both within as well as outside of the Smart City.

The core infrastructure elements in a smart city will consist of the following:
  • Adequate Water Supply through recycling of water by the deployment of Water Treatment plants.
  • Assured Electricity Supply through Renewable Energy sources such as Solar, Wind and Hydel Power Plants
  • Sanitation, including Solid Waste Management through the deployment of Sewage Treatment Plants
  • Efficient Urban Mobility and Public Transport in the form High-Speed Rails and Metro connectivity including last-mile para-transport connectivity
  • Well maintained intra-city and inter-city roads with centralized Traffic Monitoring and Control
  • Affordable housing for the economically underprivileged residents. Expand housing opportunities for all classes of citizens by subsidized Home Financing. Removal of slum areas. This will boost the local economy, promote community interactions and ensure citizen security.
  • Robust IT connectivity for the private and public.
  • Digital transformation of all Government, Civic, Public interfaces. Good governance in terms of e-Governance and e-citizen participation. Making governance citizen-friendly as well as cost-effective for the citizens. Rely on online services to bring about accountability as well as transparency. Usage of using mobiles to reduce the cost of services and providing remote services without the need to go to municipal offices; form e-groups to listen to people and record feedback. Use online monitoring of programs as well as activities through cyber (video) tour of worksites.
  • Sustainable environment in terms of reduced pollution, protection of animals, birds and other organisms of the ecosystem. Preserving and developing open spaces such as parks, playgrounds, as well as recreational spaces. This will enhance the quality of life of citizens, reduce the urban heat effects promote eco-balance.
  • Go green initiatives for the Industries in terms of Effluent Treatment Plants and Commercial RO Plants.

Characterization of Water And Water Bodies

How is the characterization of Water bodies done? The characterization is done by classification into three major components: 1. Hydrology 2. Physical-chemistry 3. Biology.  Water quality assessment is based on the appropriate monitoring of the above three components.   Hydrodynamic features The hydrological cycle inter-connects all freshwater bodies from the atmosphere to the sea. The different stages of water ranging from rainwater to marine salt waters make the water constitute a continuum. The inland freshwaters form parts of the hydrological cycle and they appear in the form of rivers, lakes or ground-waters.  These principal types of water bodies are closely interconnected. These forms may influence each other in a direct manner, or through intermediary stages. Each of the three forms has distinctly different hydrodynamic properties. Rivers are primarily characterized by the unidirectional flow of current. This is accompanied with a relatively high...

Working of Raw Water Treatment Systems - Netsol Water Solutions

There is a requirement for some type of raw water treatment system to ensure an efficient process as well as a quality product, for any industrial company that uses a raw water source for its facility.

How does the raw water treatment system function? The answer to this query primarily depends on the quality of the raw water source in relation to the quality of water needed for the factory. What is a raw water treatment system? A raw water treatment system consists of multiple individual technologies that address the facility’s particular raw water treatment needs. Treating raw water is mostly not a static process. A raw water treatment system that is designed, engineered, and built to accommodate fluctuations in treatment needs w...
