How 4Fluid technology reduced losses and generated R$ 58 thousand in savings.
Talking about reducing operational costs in sanitation is much easier when we see the solutions in action, generating real and immediate results in the field.. Today, we bring you a practical and very interesting case study focused on leak detection in... Sanepar, operating across a network span of 62 km.
In this project, the objective was clear: to identify and repair leaks quickly in order to stop not only the loss of water resources, but also the financial waste that accompanies the treatment and distribution process..
The Challenge and the Solution
In a network spanning 62 km, investigating and locating invisible leaks using traditional methods can be a time-consuming and costly process.. To solve this challenge, the field team used inspection technology. 4Fluid.
The investigation conducted with 4Fluid allowed the team to pinpoint the exact location of the leak much more quickly, enabling immediate repairs to the network..
Operational Results: Over 170,000 liters saved per day.
The figures recorded before and after the intervention prove the high efficiency of the operation.:
- Minimum Nighttime Flow Rate (Before Repair): 50.562 L/s
- Minimum Nighttime Flow Rate (After Repair): 48,612 L/s
- Impact on volume: This reduction represents the impressive mark of 172,800 liters of water saved per day.
The Financial Impact (ROI)
The speed of detection provided by 4Fluid not only saves drinking water, it drastically reduces the company's operating costs.. With the rapid location, the time the pump spends "throwing away" energy and chemicals drops drastically.
From a financial standpoint, the gain was also significant:
- R$ 22,885.00 savings in research expenses, compared to traditional technology.
- R$ 35,180.00 Savings in electricity and chemicals, thanks to reduced detection and location time.
- Total saved: R$ 58,065.00
What this case shows
Less time spent on field investigations means less water wasted, less energy and chemical consumption, and a more efficient operation from start to finish. The combination of AI and field intelligence results in a more sustainable operation with an extremely fast Return on Investment (ROI).
