| Popis: |
Leakage is a problem that draws worldwide attention. In the United States and the United Kingdom leakage ranges from 10 to 30 %. In developing countries leakage may reach even 70 %. In international perspective, leakage in the Netherlands is low: approximately 3 to 7 % of distribution input. This low leakage draws international attention. Recently, a research project has been completed where experiences from British and Dutch water companies have been exchanged. Part of this research was the application in the Netherlands of UK leakage measuring methods. Also a leak detection survey has been performed by UK staff. Both the measurements and the leak detection surveys confirmed the low leakage levels in the Netherlands. |
