INTRODUCTION
Importance of water supply system
Water Crisis - water supply can be disrupted
due to drought
Drought can lead to severely polluted water
sources beyond handling capacity of the
treatment plants
Poor monitoring and maintenance in the
distribution of water supply – large amount of
losses and waste in distribution system

Factor Affecting Water Uses
Category Remarks
Household Water used for cooking, drinking, general
(Domestic) cleaning, sanitation and garden watering
Used in industries – process water which end
up in products or water used for cooling,
Industrial diluting, mixing, quenching, rinsing,
backwashing and scrubbing to control
emissions
Include water in shops, shopping centre,
Commercial hotels, recreational facilities such as theme
parks, restaurants and private offices.

Category Remarks
Water used in public buildings such as gov.
Institutional offices, schools and universities, hospitals and
correctional facilities (jail, drugs, etc)
Water used for irrigation system for padi
Agricultural
planting, water used at livestock farm
Water used to water public parks, fire fighting,
general cleaning of public areas and municipal
Others
facilities and water losses due to leakages and

- 8. FACTORS AFFECTING WATER DEMAND
Population Size
Water demand directly related to the
population size
Large city like KL – have higher water
demand
Permatang Pauh – smaller water demand
Population density affect the design of the
distribution system - the dictate the size of
storage tanks & mains size of distribution

- 9. FACTORS AFFECTING WATER DEMAND
Characteristics of Population
Composition of the population in terms of
economic well being will influence the daily
activities
Affluence (wealth) of the population and social
norm with regards to water uses also have
bearing on the amount of water used
High incomes households – demand higher –
uses of washing machines, dishwashers,
swimming pools, garden watering, car washing
Low income – only for cooking and washing
clothes and dishes

- 10. FACTORS AFFECTING WATER DEMAND
Industrial & Commercial Activities
Large number and high intensity of industrial
activities would demand more water compared
to cities which are residential and commercial
Shah Alam or Mak Mandin in Penang – exert
higher water demand compared to towns in Alor
Setar and Kapit, Sarawak
Water demand (industry) depend on the type of
industry, product, plant size and level of water
quality required

- 11. FACTORS AFFECTING WATER DEMAND
Industrial & Commercial Activities
Steel Manufacturing Plant
Exert large demand for water, used as cooling water
compared to electronic equipment assembling plant
Water Quality
Impact on the design of water treatment plants
Quality of cooling water in power generation plant
need not to be the same quality of water used in
domestic
Sultan Salahuddin power plant in Kapar – uses sea
water for cooling – not necessary for authorities to
consider this in the design of public water supply
system

Weather & Climate
Hot climate and dry season would induce
higher water demand for water
Domestic water use in tropical countries
more than cold temperate climate like UK,
Germany, Canada, etc

Monitoring & Maintenance Water Supply System
To improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the system
Scheduled monitoring and regular inspection of
distribution system – can reduced water losses due to
pipe breaks and illegal tapping
Repair of broken pipes – help reduce amount of
unaccounted and non revenue water
Non revenue water – 45% of total water produced at
treatment plants
If the these losses – can be made available to consumers
Reduce the pressure of finding new sources or need to
adopt basin transfer in event of water shortage due to
prolonged drought

Historical Development Of Water Supply
Early civilisation – rivers main water
supply
Cities are build near rivers
KL – communities evolved near rivers for
water
Population increases and river bank are
overcrowded, people start moving to larger
place
This creates the need or water to transfer
from source to users

Historical Development Of Water Supply
Romans build aquaduct to bring water to
several location in cities
Collect water from these locations and carry
back to their homes
Supply individual homes – must have
invention of pipes
But water treatment did not go for any water
treatment

Historical Development Of Water Supply
As population grows – amount of waste
increased
Leads to contamination of water supply
Earliest treatment – filtration and
sedimentation – improves the appearance
But not the disease carrier – water borne
diseases – cholera, typhoid, dysentry and
viral hepatitis

Historical Development Of Water Supply
Found that cities with sand filters – less
susceptible to these diseases
Early 1900s – UK & USA – used sand
filters as part as their treatment
Sand filters removed most of MO from
water
Then chlorination was incorporated by
water authorities – remains until today

Historical Development Of Water Supply
Water supply objectives not only to provide
sufficient amount of water
Water supply objectives also to ensure water
supplied follows the quality characteristics;
Clear & free from suspended matter
Palatable – colorless, odorless and free of unpleasant
taste
Safe & free from disease carriers or harmful
chemicals
Reasonably soft – no excessive concentration of
soap consuming mineral salts

fertilizers and poorly organized and managed
livestock farms – caused uncontrollable
pollution in rivers
Poor air quality
Result in contaminated rainfalls and runoffs to river
systems
Increase in green house gases due to emissions from
industries and vehicles has led to more heat trapped
