The UN estimates that by 2050, half the World’s population will live in nationsthat are short of Water. Water is needed throughout the energy sector at eachstep-energy for extraction & production, refining & processing, transportation &storage and electric power generation it self. It is estimated that waterconsumption to generate electricity will more than double over the next 40 Years
Water footprint of an individual - sum of his or her direct and indirect freshwateruse. The direct water use is the water used at home, while the indirect wateruse relates to the total volume of freshwater that is used to produce the goodsand services consumed.

In India, the total utilizable water resource is assessed as 1123 BCM.
The per capita availability of water at national level has been reduced fromabout 5177 cubic meters in 1951 to the estimated level of 1,820 cubicmeters in 2001 with variation in water availability in different river basins.Given the projected increase in population by the year 2025, the per capitaavailability is likely to drop to below 1,000 cubic metres, which could belabeled as a situation of water scarcity

NETRAEffects of Corrosion, Erosion-Corrosion, Cavitations on the Performance of Pumps
• According to the U.S. DOE, pumps consume about 20% of all generated electricity
• Unlike motors, the efficiency of pumps is highly influenced by the system they are supplying
• In a typical surface water treatment and distribution system approx. 70-90% of energies used are for pumping
• Over an expected life span of 20 years, only 2.5 – 3% of the cost of pump operation related to the purchase of the equipment. Further 2 – 2.5% relates to maintenance costs. 95% is towards the cost of electricity to run the unit
•In any pumping system, over the years, the hydraulic passages of casings & impeller vane shape gets damaged due to wear, tear & corrosion, also the clearance in wear rings increases substantially. All these damages lead to head and flow losses & ultimately deteriorate hydraulic performance. Due to this deterioration of performance the power consumption increases putting pressure on energy demand due to inefficient operation of pump.

The power required for flow of water through pipelines is as follows:To overcome physical level difference from start of pipeline, which is at low level to end of pipeline which is at higher level. The power required is constant as the static head is constant.
To overcome the frictional resistance to the flow of water. This is known as frictional head loss.
There are two types of friction losses:
Major Friction Loss – This is the friction of inside surface of pipeline to the flow of water. For large diameter and long lines this loss consumes large power and therefore energy.
Minor Friction Losses – Minor friction losses are:Contraction lossEnlargement lossGate valve, check valve lossBend loss

Friction Head Loss:
Inside surface of pipelines in contact with water exerts friction on the flow. This friction depends on the roughness of the inside surface coming in contact with flow of water.
The laws governing frictional head losses are as follows:
Frictional loss generally increases with roughness of the pipe.
Frictional loss is directly proportional to the area of the wetted surface.
Frictional loss varies inversely as some power of the pipe diameter.
Frictional loss varies as some power of the velocity.
Frictional loss varies as some power of the ratio of viscosity to density of the water.
Friction loss due to water flow through piping systems can be evaluated using various flow coefficients. One such factor is the Hazen-Williams C factor.

Hazen Williams Equation:
Q = 0.278 CS 0.54 D 2.63
Q in m3/s, D in m, S = H/LV = 1.318 C R h 0.63 S 0.54 (USC Units)
V = 0.849 C R h 0.63 S 0.54 (SI Units)
Where, Rh is the hydraulic radius, S is the head loss per unit length (hf/L), and C is a roughness coefficient associated with the pipe materialFriction loss based on the Hazen-Williams formula is:
f = 0.2083 x (100/C)1.852 x (Q 1.852 /d i 4.8655).
In this formula, the following apply:f = friction head loss in feet of water per 100 feet of pipe;C = constant for inside pipe roughness;Q = flow in US gallons per minute (gpm);d i = inside diameter of pipe in inches
(1 US GPM = 0.227 m3/hr)

• Value of C would depend upon the roughness only and for any given roughness C would be a constant.
h f = (1.1758 V/CR 0.63 ) x L

NETRAProblems due to Organic Matter, Microbiolgy Case 1
HIGH ORGANIC MATTER LOADING (UNTREATED SEWAGE) IN RAW WATER:
• Acute problem of obtaining required quality of DM water throughout the year• Problem more severe in summers
• Due to high untreated sewage – proper clarification is very difficult
• Chlorine demand is very high (100 – 200 ppm)
• DM water conductivity goes as high as 0.8 us/cm (4 us/cm in DM tanks)
• pH of Boiler water drops to 7.5 – requires caustic dosing
• High Conductivity water causes deviations in Boiler & Stator water Chemistry
REMEDIAL MEASURES:
• Aeration of the make up water to remove BOD/COD
• Installation of Sewage Treatment Plant prior to clarifiers & Chlorine Dioxide
• Installation of Ultrafilteration system/RO water system prior to DM Plant
• Alternate source of raw water – borewell for DM plant
