Abstract
Secondary water supply, as the final component of the urban water supply system, is critical for ensuring the safety of urban water supply, and is directly related to customers’ water use. However, water stored in secondary water supply facilities will more likely to lose disinfectants (chlorine residual) which can lead to bacterial regrowth and water quality deterioration. Therefore, it is important to solve problems associated with secondary water supply and manage the system more effectively. In the context of the Internet of Things, the intelligent management model based on information technology has become the growing trend. This paper introduces the application of the secondary water supply intelligent management model in Shanghai.
Introduction
According to the statistics, the number of secondary water supply tanks in Shanghai is more than 200,000 which accounts for more than 20% of the daily water supply. Due to the complex structure of the secondary water supply system, with a huge number of facilities that are scattered across the city, it is difficult for property companies to manage. Therefore, the government has been pushing forward the renovation program to update aging secondary water supply facilities in residential communities, and these facilities will be taken over by water utilities after renovation. It is expected that the renovation work will be completed by the end of 2018, and property rights of the facilities of all secondary waterworks will be transferred to water utilities by 2020. In the present circumstances, how to strengthen the management of secondary water supply and ensure the safety of drinking water quality is worthy of further discussion.
