This study concerned the re-evaluation of the detailed design study of the water drainage system at the part of the national motorway from Ag. Tehodoroi junction to Almiros junction. Z&A carried out all the final hydraulic study of water drainage system for the construction of Patra – Athens – Thessalonica – Evzonoi motorway at Ag. Theodoroi – Almyros section, including the interchanges. The need of Final Hydraulic Study resulted from the revision of Final Road Study during construction and the changes that occurred in the layout and hypsometric mapping of the motorway and the service roads. The hydraulic design included the following: (a) water drainage system of the motorway and the service roads (b) drainage system to prevent flooding from upstream catchment areas along with the design of the necessary hydraulic structures (ditches, culverts, etc).

The project focused on the problems of leakage and water quality in public water supply networks. TILDE project’s primary target was to optimize management of water distribution systems focusing on leakage. The leakage control process combines the tasks of monitoring, detection, location and repair. Within leakage management it was essential to be able to accurately estimate leakage levels, have good management and monitoring tools, detect location and repair leaks. The ultimate deliverable of TILDE project was a decision support tool (DST) to improve the overall management and operation of water distribution systems and data management tool (DMS) to support water utilities in managing different data in order to establish a state of art leakage strategy. The SCADA system, already installed an operative with in the city’s network, was used to collect and evaluate data from the pilot areas. The TILDE DST and DMS tools developments were connected to the SCADA system.

Kozani is a city in Northern Greece with a population of 80.000 people. The project started with the development of a full GIS System of the entire network. The study included a description of the external and internal network system of the city and studied the method of identifying leaks from the existing data with the Service. A hydraulic network simulation model was developed, using the software EPANET2. The area was separated into 22 pressure zones and flow and pressure meters were installed. Field measurements were executed for the calibration of the model. A full telemetry and SCADA system was installed. With the use of the model and the measurements the most critical zones were defined. Site leak detection followed and covered about 30% of the total area. Training of the local staff of the client was done during the campaign. The GIS system and the hydraulic model were both connected with the SCADA system and all the information were transferred on real time basis to the Water Supply Authority’s headquarters.

The scope of the project was the study for the tender phase of two small hydroelectric power stations on the Mornos channel, which supplies water to the greater Athens area. The energy produced is almost 800 KWh in each site and the locations of the small hydroelectric stations were proposed on the energy downfall parts of the channel. Both projects were constructed in the Mornos aqueduct near energy dispatch channel, with the necessary modifications of existing installations to avoid active interventions in the environment but also problems in the operation of the aqueduct. The design flow was Q = 14 m3/s in each site and drop 12,2 m in Kirfi HPP and 10,0 m in Elikonas HPP. The energy production was 1.4 MW and 1.17 MW, approximately.

The Water Treatment Plant of Salonika receives water from Aliakmon River and treats it to potable for the supply of the urban group of Salonica town. The plant is located at Sindos area, 11 km west of Salonica. The Plant has a treatment capacity of 150.000 m³/day at present stage, with provision up to 600.000 m³/day at complete development. The treatment achieves removal of solids, asbestos, pesticides and organic load. At present stage, the Plant supplies water to 1,100,000 inhabitants of the city.The dams constructed along Aliakmon River for irrigation and energy production, ensure a high degree of flow regulation. The water is diverted to an open channel, connecting Aliakmon with Axios River, from where it is siphoned under the river to Sindos Pumping Station with an 8 km pipe. It is then pumped to the plant (Tank D2) by a 5 km discharge pipe, where it enters through a DN 1700 steel pipe, equipped with a regulating valve and a flow-meter for flow regulation.

Salonica is the second largest city in Greece with a population of over 1,100,000 people. The sewer system is mainly combined. The Waste Water Treatment Plant has started operating with full capacity in September 2000. The main collector sewer with a total length of 18 Km was constructed 10 years ago. The main objectives of the Master plan included the assessment of the future needs of the fast growing city and selection of optimum measures of protection of the coastal zone, mainly through reduction of CSO (Combined Sewer Overflows) and some reconfiguration of coastline sewer – pumping station arrangements. Also, improvements of inflow balancing at the main WWTP were studied (alternative configurations of retention tanks and pumps) and a filter arrangement for processing of stored storm water was designed. A study for the management of sludge produced at the Salonica WWTP was carried out.
