Abstract

Water leakages in water distribution systems due aging of pipes is a problem affecting most countries around the world. Official reports from government-commissioned surveys indicate that water losses are estimated to amount to an average of around 30% in most countries, with peaks up to 60% [1]-[3]. Such amounts increase in urban areas, reaching 70 to 80% in some cities. From an economic point of view, these losses have a cost that has been estimated for the European region to an overall of 8 billion a year [1].
