Resumen
El presente estudio está orientado a la necesidad de comprender y satisfacer los problemas suscitados por las pérdidas de agua potable en los sistemas de distribución.
En el estudio se establece el catastro nacional de producción, facturación y pérdidas que se originan en las empresas sanitarias de Chile, las pérdidas se clasifican de acuerdo a su magnitud e incidencia, además estas consideran las causas que comúnmente las originan y los lugares en que son más evidentes.
Dentro del estudio se utiliza como modelo el empleado en Sudáfrica denominado como modelo Sanflow, el que es utilizado en la recolección de datos sobre caudales mínimos nocturnos, a partir de esta información se establecen parámetros comunes para la estimación de los lugares o sectores con mayor incidencia en las pérdidas.
Finalmente mediante la tecnología utilizada en el país, se plantean los sistemas y costos que involucran la detección y solución de las pérdidas en los sistemas de redes, de esta manera se estiman cuales son las empresas que de acuerdo a su producción y sus costos hacen rentable la reducción de sus pérdidas.
The present study is oriented to the necessity of understanding and solving the problems raised by the potable water losses in the distribution systems. In the work, a national compilation of information about production, invoicing and losses originated in the Chilean sanitary companies is established. The losses are classified according to their magnitude and incidence; besides, it includes the causes that most commonly originate the losses and the places where they are more evident. Within the work, the model utilized in South Africa known as Sanflow is used in the recollection of information about minimal night flows. From this point, common parameters are established for the estimation of places and sectors with more incidence in the losses. Finally, through local technology, costs and systems involved in the loss detection and solution inside the net systems are laid out, and thus it can be figured which companies, according to their production and costs, make their loss reduction profitable.
