Aliaxis receives “Solar Impulse Efficient Solution” Label for its AQS Leak Detection Technology

Water scarcity and non-revenue water, which means water that has been produced and is lost before it reaches the customer, are critical challenges faced by water utilities worldwide. Global leakage rates average between 20-35% and can reach up to 70% in developing countries, so addressing non-revenue water (NRW) is essential as it accounts for a staggering loss of approximately 126 billion cubic meters due to leaks, aging infrastructure, and inefficient water management practices. Aliaxis’ AQS advanced leak detection system offers a solution to this pressing issue for urban water transmission and distribution networks.

Key features of AQS leak detection system:

1. Advanced Acoustic Monitoring: AQS utilizes cutting-edge acoustic correlating sensors to detect leaks in urban transmission and distribution networks. By promptly identifying leaks, AQS ensures rapid response and minimal water loss, enhancing water savings by reducing non-revenue water by 20%
2. Human-as-a-Service and in-depth analysis Integration: AQS sensors detect leaks and transmit data to the AQS proprietary software, which then alerts and coordinates rapid response teams, ensuring immediate action. This seamless integration significantly enhances leak detection performance by up to 50% compared to traditional methods.
3. Environmental Impact: Beyond water savings, AQS reduces energy waste and greenhouse gas emissions associated with water supply and treatment processes.
4. Long-term value and cost-effectiveness: AQS technology requires fewer sensors per kilometer of the network, delivering substantial value to customers. This makes it a reliable, cost-effective, and sustainable solution for large-scale urban water systems.

Sophie Desormiere, Chief Growth Officer of Aliaxis, said of AQS and the label: “Driven by our mission to tackle global water challenges, Aliaxis helps utilities address leakage issues and safeguard precious water resources. Securing the Solar Impulse Label underscores our commitment to innovation and sustainability, perfectly aligning with our mission to advance environmentally friendly and economically beneficial solutions. We continue to expand our range of Solar Impulse-certified offerings, setting a new standard for sustainable innovation in the industry.”
