Abstract

Against an unprecedented water crisis in our country, balancing water supply and demand is necessary for a secure and sustainable water supply. This challenge requires systems capable of delivering the necessary quantities while conserving resources. Numerous research initiatives focus on addressing water distribution challenges with the help of smart water systems to optimize network operations and minimize water demand. Based on these advancements, this paper proposes a new smart water distribution system for southwest of Algeria. The system integrates the Internet of Things (IoT), information and communication technologies, and smart technologies to address critical attributes for enhancing efficiency. To achieve the efficient management of two-way flows (both water and data) based on water demand and its availability, two innovative architectures have been proposed, using various measurements of water quantity and quality parameters. Algorithms to automate and optimize water distribution are also proposed. According to obtained results, performance has improved, with an accuracy rate of over 98%. These results establish the suggested system as a strong option for intelligent and sustainable water resource management by demonstrating its efficacy and durability.
