Smart water is an important component of smart cities. Smart water creates a smart water environment by improving the intelligent level of urban water supply, drainage, and sewage treatment systems, effectively promoting the construction of urban ecological civilization, and promoting the further upgrading and development of smart cities. At the same time, smart water will gradually integrate into the development system of smart cities, and its importance in the construction of smart cities will gradually increase. From the current management status of water supply enterprises, the leakage rate of water supply companies nationwide is still very high, basically exceeding 15%. Producing one million tons of tap water and losing 150000 tons is a huge waste of resources. The use of advanced technology to reduce water resource loss and improve the management efficiency of water supply companies has become an important issue that urgently needs to be addressed in the construction of smart cities.
How can smart water achieve intelligent water supply management? What is the market outlook?
Smart Water perceives the operational status of urban water supply and drainage systems in real time through online monitoring devices such as data acquisition instruments, wireless networks, and water quality and water pressure meters. It integrates water management departments and water supply and drainage facilities in a visual manner, forming the "Internet of Things for Urban Water". It can analyze and process massive water information in a timely manner, and make corresponding processing results to assist decision-making suggestions, Manage the entire production, management, and service process of the water system in a more refined and dynamic manner, thereby achieving a state of "intelligence".
According to relevant media reports, China's smart water industry has maintained a stable growth trend and steadily expanded its market size. From the perspective of market size, according to statistics, the market size of China's smart water industry was approximately 12.48 billion yuan in 2020, an increase of 77.80% year-on-year. With the advancement of smart city construction in China, there is still a large market for smart water services that can be developed. It is expected that the market size will reach 21.4 billion yuan in 2023.
Hongyuan Industry Building ACS-GS Water Supply Full Process Intelligent Control System
The ACS-GS intelligent control system for the entire process of water supply covers various aspects of urban and rural water supply, including water intake from water sources, water plant water production, pipe network water delivery, and user water use. It is a full process intelligent control system centered on energy conservation and consumption reduction, personnel reduction and efficiency increase, and fine management. Through the system, real-time monitoring of pressure, pipeline rupture location, water quality pollution and other data throughout the entire water supply process can be achieved, solving the problem of high water leakage rate for water supply enterprises.
The "intelligent water meter" plays the role of the "eye" in the entire intelligent water management system and is the cornerstone of achieving intelligent water management. On the basis of ensuring the original water metering function, the Hongyuan Industrial Intelligent Integrated Water Meter integrates sensors such as water pressure, water temperature, water quality, and leakage. It can fully utilize the space and location of the water display installation well, and also utilize facilities such as signal processing and communication units to complete tasks such as data storage, processing, and transmission, providing high-quality terminal layer solutions for smart water services, It can provide cost-effective water comprehensive big data for water supply network systems.
The ACS-GS intelligent control system for the entire water supply process of Hongyuan Industrial has achieved intelligent remote monitoring and management of water source wells, water plants, pipeline networks, secondary water supply, and household metering. It can also display geographic information of water supply GIS, and has important application value in achieving intelligent water supply scheduling and prediction. It can help water supply enterprises improve the overall management level of water supply systems, provide more reliable, efficient, and safe water supply services. At the same time, the application of ACS-GS intelligent control system for the entire water supply process also helps to reduce water resource loss and promote sustainable development of the water supply industry.
