The Scope of Industrial Water Audit - Netsol Water Solutions

Water is a precious natural international resource that has almost a fixed quantum of availability. With continuous growth in the world’s population, per capita availability of utilizable water is decreasing every day. Continuous discharge of industrial effluents into different water bodies is further aggravating the problematic situation of shortage of water of acceptable quality.

Rainfall is also highly variable and occurs in specific months in different parts of the world. We need to declare water conservation as an international mission. It is very crucial and important for all countries to collectively address the problem of alarmingly progressive water shortage. This is possible only, by conserving every drop of water and by conducting water audits for all sectors of water usage.
The first step to decreasing water consumption in any industry is the identification of current water usage. The current water usage can be identified by undertaking a water audit. 
Water audit can be defined as a qualitative cum quantitative analysis of water consumption which will help in the identification of reducing, reusing, and recycling water.
Water audit helps to determine the following:
  •  the amount of water lost from a distribution system due to leakage
  •  the amount of water lost due to theft,
  •  the amount of water lost due to unauthorized or illegal withdrawals from the systems
  •  the cost of such water losses to the utility.
Elements of water audit include the following
  • a record of the quantity of water supplied cum stored by different sources,
  • water consumption by users,
  • water delivered to unmetered users,
  • water loss in the system  
  • suggested measures to address water loss
  • wastewater generated
  • wastewater treated and recycled
Industrial water use audit examines the following major areas:
  • water used by the industrial process,
  • water used for human consumption,
  • water used for personal hygiene & sanitation,
  • water used for washing,
  • water used for cleaning,
  • water used for gardening etc.
Benefits of Water Audit:
  • Water audit improves the knowledge cum documentation of the water distribution system, problem, and risk areas. The water audit also helps in tracking the movement of water after it leaves the source point.  
  • Leak detection programs help minimize leakages and tackling small issues before they become major ones.

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. The most effective raw water treatment system will help the facility to avoid the following: 1.avoid costly plant downtime, 2.avoid expensive maintenance fees, and 3.not being able to sell its products in the market   What is a raw water treatment system? 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...
