BERMAD Waterworks
Severn Trent Water is undertaking a comprehensive program to improve air valve performance in high grease and fat conditions across their network. This is part of a wider work program to ensure that all the Sewage Air Valves on the Severn Trent network meet a minimum and maintainable standard. This case study explores the implementation of BERMAD C50

Case Study: Implementing a New Pipeline System in one of the World’s Oldest Cities
The Challenge
Jerusalem is the capital city of Israel, and it is located in the middle of the country. In addition to the large number of tourists visiting this historical city annually, Jerusalem also has a population of more than 900,000 people, and in 1994, the yearly drinking water consumption was approximately 60M cubic meters; 2,120 cubic feet. In order to meet the future demand of a rapidly growing population, as well as overcome the challenges posed by an ageing infrastructure, Mekorot (the Israeli national water company) decided to implement a new pipeline system. The objective was to deliver water from the national aqueduct and deep wells near the coastline to Jerusalem.
