Water safety and quality are fundamental to human development and well-being, WHO UN SDG 6 also prioritizes accessibility and availability of safe driking water MASHREKI ISLAM SAMI Chalmers 3
4 Problem Statement Contamination threats between WTP and consumer Chances of affecting mass population Uncertainties (Intrusion, micorbial growth, leakage) In 2007, an outbreak in Nokia, Finland affected 8453 people with waterborne gastroenteritis for pipeline cross-connection. In 2007, poisoning of water supply caused 71 people poisoned in China. Introduction and Problem Statement MASHREKI ISLAM SAMI Chalmers 4
5 Problem Statement Sensors are expensive Deploying sensors at every node is impractical Optimization requires vast computional resources A large WDN with 10,000 nodes each contaminated and sensor sampling time is 10 min. 72h simulation will give 4.32 million scenarios of contaminations. Storage capacity required is 173 GB and 200 days to end simulation. Introduction and Problem Statement MASHREKI ISLAM SAMI Chalmers 5

37 Limitations ph sensor data insufficient for for source back-tracking. More dynamic and hydraulic data are necessary for source back-tracking. EPANET time outputs changes with user defined parameters. Flow charateristics and pipe properties were not analyzed. MASHREKI ISLAM SAMI Chalmers 37
38 Key Findings Simple sorting matrix, Graph theory, Complex network theory etc. are easy to use and efficient optimizing techniques. Chemical tends to flow in laminar in the pipe system EPANET is convenient to simulate WDN for hydraulic analysis but time-variant chemical flow is not available. Simple & cheap ph sensors are efficient in detecting sudden changes in ph of water. MASHREKI ISLAM SAMI Chalmers 38
39 Conclusions The study highlights the possibilities of sensor localization in WDN using simpler methods Intrusion at downstream nodes for the designed WDN can be detected by sensors upstream enabling early warning signal Source tracking was not possible due to limitations and uncertainties associated with EPANET and simple sensors Computer program specifically developed for source tracking can contribute greatly to future water distribution network.
