The HCMC water supply system have built from the French Colonial period, and developed without planning and systematic study during the war time. In the beginning, this system used for the small town Saigon- Gia Dinh. Today, the capacity of water supply system is 1,85 million m3/day and will increase up to 2,5 million in next few year and up to 4-5 million m3/day according with the HCMC water supply system planning approved by Government. The climate change issues, salt water lever increase, polution... affect directly into the raw water resource of the existing and future water treatment plant. Beside that, the big size water supply transmission pipe line and the distribution water supply system of 06 hydrolique zone in HCMC damaged according with time : bad quality and No- update information of pipe system… It bring the real water loss level in HCMC so high up to 40% - 50% .The acceptable technologies & techniques solution to find the leak, optimal management for the water supply system to reduce the water loss is extremely essential, to support the clean water resources for the sustainable development of the HCM City.

Abstract. This paper presents a salt intrusion model for the Pungue estuary with the aim to determine the minimum discharge required to prevent the salt intrusion from reaching the water intake situated 82 km from the estuary mouth. The Pungue river is shared between Zimbabwe and Mozambique and has a large variation in precipitation and runoff. The mean monthly discharge can be as low as 8 m3/s and as high as 893 m3/s. The second largest city of Mozambique, Beira, relies on the Pungue for its water supply. In the dry season it frequently occurs that the water intake has to be ceased because the salinity of the Pungue is too high. The salt intrusion model used in this paper is based on a fully analytical and predictive theory which is confronted with measurements of salt intrusion and estuary topography. The paper presents the collection of estuary characteristics and the salt water intrusion measurements that were obtained by field measurements in 1993 and 2002. Using these data the salt intrusion model has successfully been applied. During salinity intrusion measurements in the dry season of 1993 it was observed that sand banks in the middle zone of the estuary prevented the salt water from intruding further upstream, resulting in lower salinity levels upstream than the theoretical salt water intrusion model predicts. This effect occurs during ebb of neap and average tides and can reduce the salt water intrusion by 10 km. The model indicates that in a natural situation a minimum monthly discharge of 12 m3/s is required to maintain acceptable salinity levels during high water and spring tide near the water intake. The actual water discharge upstream of the water intake has to be higher, since this minimum discharge does not take into account the water abstracted for irrigation and/or urban water supply. Current water abstractions lead to salt water intrusion near the water intake at approximately 10% of the time. The model indicates that an additional water abstraction of 5 m3/s will lead to an increase in salt water reaching the intake at 10% of the time. During neap tide the sand banks act as a temporary natural salt intrusion barrier reducing the chance of salt water reaching the water intake.

The presence of some chemical compounds at higher levels than maximum permissible concentrations (MPC) in the drinking water, suggests of water resources pollution. In this paper the following elements were analyzed: total arsenic, cadmium, lead, cooper and zinc. Twelve samples of water from the water supply system from the city of Skopje were examined during one year from three different springs. Also, ten samples of bottled water from three producers from the Macedonian market were tested.The determined average mass concentrations of total As, Cd(II), Pb(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) in the analyzed water samples from the water supply system are 1.35 μg/l, 0.06 μg/l, 0.6 μg/l, 0.9 μg/l and 1,12 μg/l, respectively, and for the tested bottled water, the mean values ranges from 0.56 - 0.83 μg total As / l, 0.053 - 0.056 μg Cd(II)/l, 0.51 - 0.54 μg Pb(II)/l , 0.6 - 0.87 μg Cu(II)/l and 0.68 - 0.8 μg Zn(II)/l water.The following instrumental analytical methods and techniques were used for the analysis of the tested samples of drinking water: flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), atomic absorption spectroscopy with hydride cеll, electrothermal atomic absorption spectroscopy.The obtained results are shown in tables and graphic form. According to the obtained results a comparative analysis was carried out indicate that it is a water of good quality that can be used in different branches of the process industry.The obtained results in this paper do not exceed the values of the MPC of the Republic of Macedonia prescribed by the legal regulations for the drinking water, which confirm the health safety of the drinking water from the water supply system in the city of Skopje and the packed waters from the Macedonian market in relation to the tested elements.

The Kafr El Sheikh Water Supply Project is a comprehensive endeavour to provide the physical and institutional resources for an effective and sustainable water supply system for 2 million persons in a developing rural Governorate in the Delta region of Egypt. The paper describes the aims of the Management Component, the institutional development of an integrated water supply and sewerage company and the main activities to-date. These include training, operational improvements, health education and finance development. Further support is required until all engineering and institutional development work has been completed.

Работа посвящена системному анализу данных показателей исходной воды при производстве питьевой воды в системе центрального водоснабжения крупного населенного пункта. На сегодняшний день на фоне увеличивающегося негативного антропогенного воздействия на окружающую среду наблюдается ухудшение состояния многих источников питьевого водоснабжения в широком спектре показателей, в частности, таких как органолептические свойства воды. Как следствие, возникает проблема и для питьевой воды. В работе приводится процесс подготовки данных о параметрах исходной воды, забираемой из водохранилища, которые ежемесячно (с 2002 по 2014 год) учитывались на предприятии при дезодорации воды. Приведенные параметры оказывают существенное влияние на органолептические свойства конечной воды. Подготовка данных для анализа проводится методом главных компонент К. Пирсона. Данные, полученные в пространстве R9, переводятся в пространство меньшей размерности R3. Понижение размерности позволяет снизить автокорреляцию между компонентами. Отбор компонент в пространство R3 проводится по правилу Парето. В пространстве R3 методом сферической кластеризации данных «Форель» с постоянным радиусом группировки проводится кластеризация. Приводится пошаговое визуальное представление алгоритма кластеризации в пространстве R3. В работе показано, что в данных показателях качества исходной воды имеются кластеры. Проводится корреляционно-регрессионный анализ данных, представленных в главных компонентах. Строятся регрессионные зависимости показателей органолептических свойств от главных компонент из пространства R3.
