Review of: "Reducing non-revenue water in Egypt using GIS"
Résumé
The paper discusses the challenge of Unaccounted for Water (UFW) in water systems, exceeding 40%, causing significant strain on utility operations and budgets.High UFW leads to revenue losses and impacts utility performance.The primary objective is to reduce UFW through a systematic process involving flow measurement, leak detection, meter installation, illegal connection reduction, billing improvement, and GIS development.The plan includes integrating GIS maps with billing and hydraulic systems.The pilot program involves reviewing similar activities, field visits, meetings, timeline preparation, base map creation, network analysis, and result reporting.A substantial reduction in the UFW percentage is anticipated through leak fixes.**2.Strengths:** The research is relevant to the Journal.The technical quality of the paper is good.The research methodology adopted is appropriate.There is clarity in presenting the idea.The paper presents a comprehensive methodology for utilities to reduce Unaccounted-For Water (UFW) rates, which is a strength of the study.The multi-stage systematic process involves measuring water flow, leak detection, installing and fixing meters, reducing illegal connections, and increasing billing and Qeios, CC-BY 4.0 • Review,
