Need for Optimizing Pump Operation

 2% of U.S. electricity used for Public water

& wastewater services

 More

than 50% increase in energy consumption by 2050

Electricity Bill: ¾ of the operating costs of municipal water facilities

 optimizing pump operation can result in

10% reduction

  • f

the annual energy related costs

Water treatment 14% Finished water pumping 67 67% Raw water puming 11% In-plant water pumping 8%

Relative Energy Consumption in Water Treatment 2

  • EWRI. (2014).

Market Needs

 Simpler optimizer

 Default optimization options and one click optimization

 Faster optimizer  Considering effect of control valves (e.g. throttling

valves)

 Considering all system constraints

 Water quality issue and stored water circulation  Maintaining required level of stored water in tanks  Considering minimum speed of each VFD  Considering size and age of pumps

slide-18

Entering Market Challenges

 Up-to-date, accurate and calibrated hydraulic model  Reliable water demand prediction or historic data  Accessing to SCADA system for real-time optimization  Unfamiliarity of operators with hydraulic models and design or

  • ptimization software

 Lack of accurate information about pumps efficiency  System capability for optimization (e.g. enough elevated storage)  Other type of energy waste that aren’t directly related to pump

schedule (e.g. head loss at tank inlet, inefficient pump sizing, unnecessary pressure demand)
