Spatial & Temporal variability of pollutant emission Optimizing large WDS Considering practical usage of the output of optimization process Using metamodel-embedded evolution framework Helping user to select the optimum result among solutions of Pareto front
Supporting complicated electricity tariffs for each pump Better tank level control Better pump switches control Take into account power demand cost More user friendly environment Getting real time environmental data from LEEM server
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
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
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)
More area coverage More sensitive and accurate marginal generator finder More accurate pollutant emission calculation More pollutant More reliable & clear data providing format
