REAL EXAMPLE

WATER CRISIS

ENERGY CRISIS

• The Union government has startedlaying the groundwork forprivatisation of water distribution inurban India, with the Ministry ofUrban Development

• To provide potable water to all households in the State, the Telangana government would lay a total of 1,26,036 km water pipeline that includes main trunk line, secondary lines and distribution networks.

GRAVITY FED WATER PIPELINES

IN-CONDUIT HYDRO POWER GENERATION

HOW IT WORKS ??• WATER FLOWS THROUGH LUCID PIPE'S SPHERICAL LIFT-BASED HYDRO

DYNAMIC TURBINE, GENERATING POWER AS THE TURBINE SPINS.

• THE HYDRODYNAMIC TURBINE HAS BEEN CAREFULLY DESIGNED AND LAB TESTED TO MAXIMIZE EFFICIENCY

DESIGN OF ‘LUCID

PIPE’

ELECTRICAL POWER GENERATION

ADVANTAGES

• CLEAN ,BASE LOAD ENERGY

WITHOUT INTERMITTENCY OF WIND

AND SOLAR

• VIRTUALLY NO IMPACT ON WATER

FLOW

• NO ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECT

• QUICK INSTALLATION AND NO

SEPARATE SPEACE IS REQUIRED

APPLICATIONS1. REAL TIME SYSTEM MONITORING:

SENSORS ARE EMPLOYED TO MONITOR

• TURBINE PERFORMANCE

• WATER TEMPERATURE

• PH LEVELS , CONTAMINATION LEVELS

• WATER PURITY

• WATER PRESSURE

• FLOW RATE

sensors employed along the pipe line allows for early detection of

major line leaks ,bursts and failure by this we can close the electronic controlled valves at fault area and can repaired immediately by pipe

line operators

SMART OFF GRID SYSTEM

•Water distribution pipelines often transport

water over long distances and through areas that

may not have access to the electrical grid.

•This electrical power generated can be used to

power the tribal houses
