This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La regionalización de redes de distribución de servicios públicos, entre ellos, el de agua potable, ha sido planteada como una ruta de desarrollo de la infraestructura nacional con el objetivo último de mejorar los índices de oferta y cobertura de estos servicios esenciales. Sin embargo, esta regionalización de las redes de distribución implica un nuevo reto para la ingeniería, haciendo más que indispensable el uso e implementación de metodologías de diseño innovadoras que simplifiquen e involucren nuevas tecnologías disponibles tales como lo son los sistemas de información geográfica (SIG). En este documento, se presenta una solución a este reto, sugiriendo una metodología para el diseño en específico de redes regionales de distribución de agua potable, la cual involucra en primer lugar, la definición de un trazado preliminar y potencial de ubicación de la red mediante consideraciones de variables y restricciones de diseño fundamentales, establecidas en las normativas de diseño de acueductos vigentes...

Book An  lisis geom  trico avanzado de redes de distribuci  n de agua potable  RDAP  dise  adas   ptimamente

Download or read book An lisis geom trico avanzado de redes de distribuci n de agua potable RDAP dise adas ptimamente written by Juan Diego Carvajal Cruz and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En el análisis de RDAP optimizadas, se ha dejado a un lado la posible relación entre los parámetros geométricos de la red y los parámetros hidráulicos obtenidos del diseño optimizado. En esta investigación, se realiza un análisis geométrico de diseños óptimos de RDAP mediante la minimización de costos de tuberías, para dar respuesta a las posibles relaciones entre la geometría de la red y su diseño optimizado. Además, esta caracterización geométrica puede conducir al desarrollo de nuevos criterios para abordar el problema de diseño óptimo de RDAP. El análisis geométrico se realiza entendiendo que la infraestructura de distribución de agua, representada como un gráfico espacialmente organizado, es una red compleja de vértices (nodos) y bordes (tuberías) interconectados que pertenecen al tema emergente de la teoría de redes complejas (CNT). Por lo tanto, las métricas de CNT junto con otros aspectos geométricos (por ejemplo, diámetro de tubería, longitud de tubería, índice de ramificación, entre otros) de la red se miden para analizar las características del dominio físico donde se produce la optimización y la hidráulica. Estas métricas se evalúan considerando diseños estándar (configuraciones de tuberías que satisfacen las restricciones hidráulicas) y diseños optimizados. Con respecto al proceso de optimización, se logra a través de diferentes metodologías destinadas a alcanzar diseños de menor costo de capital. Esta investigación analiza la importancia de comprender la estructura de conectividad de la red en el proceso de optimización, probando el enfoque propuesto en varios sistemas de distribución de agua, incluidas redes patrón y los sistemas colombianos reales. Como resultado, se determinó cómo la efectividad de las metodologías de optimización se ven afectadas dependiendo de la topología de la red y cómo los algoritmos de optimización pueden afectar algunas características geométricas.

Book excerpt: Spanish Abstract: Los procesos urbanos afectan las Redes de Distribución de Agua Potable (RDAP) y ocasionan su mal funcionamiento, lo cual genera el incumplimiento del límite establecido para la presión mínima de operación. Por esta razón, es necesario establecer criterios de rehabilitación válidos basados en estudios previos realizados. En este trabajo se presenta una metodología para verificar los resultados obtenidos por la rehabilitación gradual basada en los criterios del Índice de resiliencia y la Potencia específica. Los resultados obtenidos para seis casos de estudio en Colombia se analizaron en términos de costos, parámetros hidráulicos y número de cambios, los cuales muestran una reducción en costos y un número reducido de cambios usando el algoritmo basado en el segundo índice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benchmarking has become a key tool in the water industry to promote and achieve performance targets for utilities. The use of this tool for performance improvement through systematic search and adaptation of leading practices, has expanded globally during the past decade. Many ongoing projects worldwide aim to address different needs and objectives, in varying contexts, with outstanding results and impact. Benchmarking Water Services provides valuable information to everyone interested in benchmarking in the water industry. The text is aimed at utilities considering joining a benchmarking project, experienced practitioners in charge of organizing a benchmarking exercise, consultants, regulators and researchers. The document is presented with a clear practice oriented approach and can be used as a how-to-benchmark guide presented from different perspectives (participants, organizers, supervising bodies). Readers will gain practical insight on real life benchmarking practices and will benefit from the experiences gained in some of the leading benchmarking projects of the water industry (including the IWA-WSAA benchmarking efforts, the European Benchmarking Co-operation and the several benchmarking projects carried out in Austria and Central Europe). The manual also presents the new IWA Benchmarking Framework, which aims to harmonize the terms used to describe benchmarking and performance indicators practices in the water industry, guaranteeing a more fluent and efficient communication. This Manual of Best Practice is edited by the IWA Specialist Group on Benchmarking and Performance Assessment, and co-published by AWWA and IWA Publishing. Praise for Benchmarking Water Services: "The continual trend of conceptual to specifics throughout the book provides for an educational experience each time the book is either casually perused or carefully studied." "The authors (Cabrera, Haskins and Fritiz) diligently pursue the focus of improvement." "Benchmarking Water Services is an in depth and practical ‘must have’ guide for any utility currently engaged in or planning to develop a benchmarking process" - Gregory M. Baird (2012) Benchmarking: An International Journal 19:2.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of the World Bank has been revised and expanded by the Terminology Unit in the Languages Services Division of the World Bank in collaboration with the English, Spanish, and French Translation Sections. The Glossary is intended to assist the Bank's translators and interpreters, other Bank staff using French and Spanish in their work, and free-lance translator's and interpreters employed by the Bank. For this reason, the Glossary contains not only financial and economic terminology and terms relating to the Bank's procedures and practices, but also terms that frequently occur in Bank documents, and others for which the Bank has a preferred equivalent. Although many of these terms, relating to such fields as agriculture, education, energy, housing, law, technology, and transportation, could be found in other sources, they have been assembled here for ease of reference. A list of acronyms occurring frequently in Bank texts (the terms to which they refer being found in the Glossary) and a list of international, regional, and national organizations will be found at the end of the Glossary.

Book Biological Wastewater Treatment

Download or read book Biological Wastewater Treatment written by Mogens Henze and published by IWA Publishing (International Water Assoc). This book was released on 1881 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For information on the online course in Biological Wastewater Treatment from UNESCO-IHE, visit: http://www.iwapublishing.co.uk/books/biological-wastewater-treatment-online-course-principles-modeling-and-design Over the past twenty years, the knowledge and understanding of wastewater treatment have advanced extensively and moved away from empirically-based approaches to a first principles approach embracing chemistry, microbiology, physical and bioprocess engineering, and mathematics. Many of these advances have matured to the degree that they have been codified into mathematical models for simulation with computers. For a new generation of young scientists and engineers entering the wastewater treatment profession, the quantity, complexity and diversity of these new developments can be overwhelming, particularly in developing countries where access is not readily available to advanced level tertiary education courses in wastewater treatment. Biological Wastewater Treatment addresses this deficiency. It assembles and integrates the postgraduate course material of a dozen or so professors from research groups around the world that have made significant contributions to the advances in wastewater treatment. The book forms part of an internet-based curriculum in biological wastewater treatment which also includes: Summarized lecture handouts of the topics covered in book Filmed lectures by the author professors Tutorial exercises for students self-learning Upon completion of this curriculum the modern approach of modelling and simulation to wastewater treatment plant design and operation, be it activated sludge, biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal, secondary settling tanks or biofilm systems, can be embraced with deeper insight, advanced knowledge and greater confidence.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.
