Intelligent Urban Water Supply Testbed
At-A-Glance For public utilities, local governments and management of critical infrastructure who wish to streamline and improve water supply operations, our Intelligent Urban Water Supply Testbed demonstrates how IIoT can improve water delivery processes, decrease operational costs, protect the environment and enhance public safety. 2
Increases in global population puts a strain on natural resources. Water quality, supply/demand and energy consumption are difficult to monitor and maintain due to lack of visibility into the supply pipeline, pumping efficiency and equipment operations. The Societal & Environmental Problem 3 High demand: Dramatic urban population growth. In China, over 50% of the population live in urban areas. Water scarcity: per capita availability of water in China is 1/3 the world average. Lower quality: 45% of the water sources in China are below drinking standards for all or part of the year.
Qinzhou city (population approx. 3.8 million) was chosen as the initial testbed deployment site. As of late 2017 the testbed footprint has since expanded to 100 municipalities. Prior to testbed deployment, the city faced: The Technical Problem 4 Lack of visibility into Supply Operations • Unreliable, impotable water • Wasted water, contamination, leakage No visibility into Physical Assets • Unreliable pumps, vaults, pipelines • No capacity for predictive maintenance Inefficient Operations • Service interruptions • Inefficient energy consumption • High costs • Dissatisfied residents
Impact of the Problem 5 Environment Wasted natural resources. Inefficient energy consumption. Water quality degradation. Business High operational costs & maintenance expenses. Restricted ability for effective urban planning. Limited capabilities to redirect funds to system improvements. Society Public safely & health risks. Negative effect on quality of life. Dissatisfied residents.
Apply an industrial internet technology system that integrates urban water supply assets, information systems and business processes to deliver safe, quality water to residents with high reliability and efficiency; benefiting society, businesses and environment. The Solution 6 Enhance urban water supply delivery & reliability by providing advanced asset monitoring and maintenance Increase safety and quality of water supply by applying system-wide quality monitoring and degradation detection Increase energy efficiency of water supply operations by ~30% via insight into operational assets (pumps, vaults, pipelines) energy consumption and leakage detection.
Progress Report 7 Testbed Approval • April 2016 • Determine Participant Roles Define Initial Use Cases 1) Predictive Maintenance 2) Reduce Energy Consumption 3) Water Quality Monitoring 4) Leakage Detection 5) Stored Water Quality Improvement 6) Balance Supply & Demand Align Testbed Participants • Establish platform • Determine IIRA*, & security applicability and methodologies • Co-design the system Establish Connectivity with Equipment • Build and connect software and hardware assets • Determine relations with other Testbeds • Research additional capabilities needed Initial Results Reporting • December 2017 • Contribute guidance and design documentation • Bring in other ecosystem partners * Industrial Internet Reference Architecture (www.iiconsortium.org/IIRA)

“One challenge the testbed has faced is interoperability. The ability to adapt to various data formats is incredibly important. Combined with other capability upgrades, this may lead to increased revenues by adapting or transforming old equipment to new technologies.” ~DR. SHI-WAN LIN, CEO, THINGSWISE Many cities in the world face water supply challenges including water quality, supply and demand, and energy consumption. It is difficult to monitor and maintain due to lack of visibility into the supply pipeline, pumping efficiency and equipment operations. The Problem Intelligent Urban Water Supply Testbed Our Solution Team The Intelligent Urban Water Supply Testbed system integrates urban water supply assets, information systems and business processes to deliver safe, quality water to urban residents in a highly reliable and efficient manner. It benefits society, businesses and the environment. • WPG • Thingswise, LLC • CAICT Key Benefits • Enhances efficiency of Water Supply Operations and reduces water delivery energy consumption up to 30%. • Increases public safety and quality of water supply. • Improves availability of water supply. 10
