Curapipe as part of Greentech Innovation symposium

 

February 9th, 2012

 
 
Professor Erran Carmel wrote a blogpost about the one-day symposium about Greentech Innovation in Israel at the American Univesity.
 
 
He wrote the following about Curapipe:
 
 

"A recent start-up strikes me as somewhat of a comic book super hero: Cura-pipe. It deals with the 25% of the world’s water supply that is lost in leaky pipes. The technology first identifies the leaky holes, then it launches a payload with a special viscous substance, that finds the hole in the pipe from inside the pipe, and then plugs it up! you've got to see this video."

Zahlreiche neue Player sind dazugekommen, beispielsweise das Start-up-Unternehmen Curapipe Systems, das eine Art Mini-Roboter entwickelt hat, der selbst kleinste Risse in Wasserleitungen erkennt und mittels eines Verbundwerkstoffs zu reparieren vermag. Kostspielige Aushubarbeiten werden damit überflüssig. »Rund zehn Prozent des Trinkwassers in Israel gehen allein durch defekte Rohre verloren«, so Curapipe-Chef Peter Paz. Weltweit kosten solche undichten Stellen die Wasserversorger 14 Milliarden Dollar im Jahr.
