Service life of water pipes buried in the underground is considerably affected from various factors such as environmental characteristics, pipe characteristics, operation and maintenance, etc. Therefore it is difficult to determine their service life as uniformly the same value assigned by related laws and ordinances. As a result, the service life should be determined by the technical judgement based on the assessment for the condition of water pipes. In this study, It was established that the methodology could predict present and future failure risk, and plan short and long-term strategies for replacement/rehabilitation through the assessment for the physical deterioration and economical values of buried water pipe. The methodology was applied for the verification and reliability to several sites selected in multi-regional transmission pipelines. The proposed method could helps to support reasonable and economical decision of rehabilitation/replacement in the present and future. To improve conventional assessment method of aged water pipes, affecting factors are simplified based on the statistical analysis results from the measured data in the field and the physical deterioration mechanism for better reliability. Also, the guide-line is developed to carry out the reasonal rehabilitation planning through water pipe condition assessment.

2008년 6월 14일, 일본 이와테(암수(岩手)) 미야기(궁성(宮城)) 내륙 지진이 발생하였다. 평야지역에서의 피해는 경미하였지만, 산간지역은 괴멸적인 피해를 입은 것이 가장 큰 특정이다. 특히, 산간지역의 간이수도 등, 소규모 수도 시설의 지하수원이 고갈되고 정수시설의 경사면이 붕괴되는 등의 피해를 입었다. 또, 지진발생 후, 원수의 높은 탁도와 색도가 시간이 경과한 시점에서도 낮아지거나 없어지지 않았던 곳이 많았다. 이번 연구보고에서는, 간이수도 등의 피해와 상호지원 체제의 상황을 보고함과 동시에 소규모 수도시설의 지진 재해에 대한 제언을 제시하고자 하였다.

Climate adaptation strategies for water utilities including 16 water treatment plants(WTPs) in Jeju were investigated. Drought, heat wave, and heavy rain were among the most significant climate factors affecting water utilities in Jeju. Heat wave increases water temperature, which in turn increases the concentration of algae, color, and odor materials. Some adaption strategies for the heat wave can be strengthening water monitoring and introducing advanced water treatments. Heavy rain increases raw water turbidity in surface water. The 7 WTPs that take raw water from streams or springs had a maximum turbidity of less than 50 NTU under heavy rain. However, due to concerns of turbidity spike in treated water, some WTPs discontinued intaking raw water when raw water turbidity increased more than 2 NTU. They instead received treated water from other WTPs which took groundwater for water supply. This happens because of the low skills of employees. Thus, there needs to be an increase in operator competency and upgrade of water facilities for the adaption of heavy rain. To improve adaption for the drought, there should be an increase in the capacity of intake facilities of surface water as well as a decrease in water loss. In addition, water consumption per person should be decreased.

상수도관의 노후화 등으로 발생하는 누수는 안정적인 급수운영을 저해하고 경제적 손실을 발생시킬 뿐만 아니라 지반 침하 등 2차 피해가 발생할 수 있다. 상수도관 누수는 배관 내·외부 부식으로 발생하는 핀홀(Pin Hole)로 인한 관통누수, 강관 용접 시 발생하는 시공불량, 볼트 및 고무패킹 등 부자재의 노후화, 굴착 등 작업에서 발생하는 물리적 충격 등 여러 원인으로 발생할 수 있다. 상수도관에서 누수가 발생할 경우, 관 내부수가 관 밖으로 유출되어 발생하는 파열음, 유출수와 지반과의 마찰로 인한 진동 및 소음 등이 발생할 수 있다. 청음식, 상관식 누수탐사와 같은 기존 누수탐사 방식은 전문가의 경험에 대한 의존도가 매우 높으며, 기존 장비의 특성상 비금속관 및 대구경관 등 특정 환경에서는 적용이 어려우며, 효율적인 탐사가 쉽지 않은 실정이다. 이에 대한 해결책으로 본 논문에서는 상수도 누수가 의심되는 구간을 대상으로 실시간 누수음 데이터 수집 및 인공지능(Artificial Intelligence) 분석을 실시하여 기존 조사방법보다 효율적이고 신뢰성 있는 누수탐사를 수행한 사례를 분석하고자 한다.

Water distribution system (WDS) is exposed to various water quality incidents during its operation. This study utilized Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment (QMRA) to analyze the risk associated with potential virus intrusion in WDSs. Additionally, the study determined the location and operation of rechlorination facilities to minimize potential risk. In addition, water quality resilience was calculated to confirm that the chlorine concentration maintains within the target range (0.1-1.0 mg/L) during normal operation. Hydraulic analysis was performed using EPANET, while EPANET-MSX was linked to simulate the reactions between viruses and chlorine. The proposed methodology was applied to the Bellingham network in the United States, where rechlorination facilities capable of injecting chlorine concentrations ranging from 0.5 mg/L to 1.0 mg/L were considered. Results indicated that without rechlorination facilities, the Average risk was 0.0154. However, installing rechlorination facilities and injecting chlorine at a concentration of 1.0 mg/L could reduce the Average risk to 39.1%. It was observed that excessive chlorine injection through rechlorination facilities reduced water quality resilience. Consequently, a rechlorination facility with a concentration of 0.5 mg/L was selected, resulting in a reduction of approximately 20% in average risk. This study provides insights for designing rechlorination facilities to enhance preparedness against potential virus ingress in the future.

Construction of the water-friendly facilities in the apartment complex and industrial complex became popular these days. In planning water-friendly facilities, kinds, layouts, water sources, water quality and water circulation system should be studies. In this study, several alternatives for a regional industrial complex project were studies and a most reasonal alternative was selected. A main canal across the central part of the complex is the principle facility with ponds and parks. The water source alternatives were a river nearby, a reservoir, ground water and urban water supply system. For each system, water quantity and quality, circulation system, permit and maintenance were compared. The facilities should be constructed with natural material such as rock and gravel. Average depth and velocity in the canal should be 10 cm and 0.15 m/s, respectively in order to people can feel the water flow in the canal. Based on the comparison, it is found that using the ground water, and water circulation system with storage tanks at the upper and lower ends of the canal system is the best alternative.
