Available energy assessment in water supply systems
Within European Union priorities, the problematic of available water sources have paid attention through the development of an integrated policy to reduce and control pressures and consequently leakage. In drinking pipe systems Pressure Reducing Valves (PRV) are used as dissipative devices for pressure control through a localized pressure drop. The use of microturbines or pumps operating as tur...

Introduction: Legionella Pneumophila bacteria is known as one of the most important nosocomial infections and the most common cause of death in patients. This study was aimed to identify Legionella Pneumophila bacteria in hospital water supply systems. Material and Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was performed to identify Legionella pneumophila in hot and cold-water systems of i...
متن کاملElectricity supply and hydropower development in Switzerland
Introduction According to the Swiss Energy Strategy 2050, which takes into account the phase out of the existing nuclear power plants, the mean annual hydropower production must be increased by 1.5 TWh/a under present framework conditions, eventually reaching 3.2 TWh/a if conditions are optimized (SFOE, 2016). In view of environmental and socio-economic constraints, this foreseen increase is ex...
متن کاملSystematic high-resolution assessment of global hydropower potential
Population growth, increasing energy demand and the depletion of fossil fuel reserves necessitate a search for sustainable alternatives for electricity generation. Hydropower could replace a large part of the contribution of gas and oil to the present energy mix. However, previous high-resolution estimates of hydropower potential have been local, and have yet to be applied on a global scale. Th...
متن کاملWater contamination events in UK drinking-water supply systems.
Water supply companies in the UK have a duty under prime UK legislation to notify the Drinking Water Inspectorate of events affecting or potentially affecting the quality of drinking-water supplies. Under the same legislation, the Inspectorate has a duty to investigate each event. After assessing all of the information available, including companies' reports, the Inspectorate advises on the way...
