051 Dorot case study in India - Mysore project General description:Where,What,Total investment,How long. The project is in Mysore, in the state of Karnataka in Southern India. Mysore city with population of nearly 1 million people is located between two rivers– Kaveri and Kabini.The project is funded under JNNURM (Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission) scheme. The city of Mysore is one of the first cities to convert from intermittent water supply scheme to 24x7 water supply scheme.The 24x7 project in Mysore was divided into two phases:1st phase was completed by Jusco Ltd.The 2nd phase was awarded to IL&FS Water Limited.The project is on BOOT basis with 10 years of operation andmaintenance. Dorot has been chosen as the reliable partner for the Pressure,Flow and level control of the entire network. We are assisting the IL&FS design team select the right control valves with sizing and selection for ESR management, DMA and PMA management. What was the demand/challenge? Water is available in plenty inMysore but exponential increment in the population has created huge differences with design conditions to reality.In theory,the pumped water is sufficient to cater the demand for the city and achieve 24x7 water supply. The challenge we are facing is the hydraulics (pressure and flow) of the network which isn’t sufficient to reach the critical point thus the unequal supply to users. In addition, since the pressure and flow aren’t distributed properly in the system,high-pressure pockets are created at low-lying areas resulting in pipe breakages and burst.Thus higher NRW (Non Revenue Water) and life of infrastructure is significantly reduced! Dorot’s solution. Dorot has been involved in this project since 2015, working hand in hand with the engineers from KUWSSB from early design stages. As the contract was finalized and Dorot is now the hydraulic valve supplier, we are working closely with the contractor’s design team (IL&FS) and the end-user (KUWSSB).Our solution for ESRmanagement is installing hydraulic control flow & pressure control valves and level control valves which are independent of electricity and man power. In addition, we are analysing the distribution network to recommend the right control valves to maintain the pressure in the system in such a way that each customer receives water with minimum residual head with DMA and PMA management. The valves supplied by DOROT will be a tailor-made solution for this project with 10 years of warranty. In addition, Dorot is supporting its partners with the Air Management solutions. Contact us!
