Elion provides Water Quantification & Resource Study services for industrial, commercial, and institutional facilities to accurately quantify water availability, extraction, consumption, losses, reuse, and discharge, and to establish a verified water baseline aligned with operational control, planning, and regulatory requirements.
Water Quantification & Resource Study is a foundational engineering exercise aimed at determining how much water is actually available, how it is being withdrawn, where it is consumed, and how much is lost, reused, or discharged across a facility. In many organisations, water sourcing, consumption, and storage data exist in silos, making it difficult to assess true dependency, risks, and efficiency. Facilities often rely on multiple water sources such as borewells, municipal supply, surface water, rainwater harvesting, and tanker water. Without a structured quantification study, variations in abstraction, seasonal availability, over-extraction, undocumented usage, and loss mechanisms remain hidden. This leads to unreliable water records, higher operational costs, compliance gaps, and long-term resource stress.
A Water Quantification & Resource Study establishes a verified, source-wise and use-wise water baseline by systematically measuring, estimating, and reconciling all water flows within defined system boundaries. The study forms the basis for water balancing, efficiency improvement, sustainability planning, expansion feasibility, and regulatory submissions where accurate water accounting is required. Elion’s approach focuses on measurement-backed data, reconciliation checks, and implementation-ready findings to ensure practical and long-term value.

📊 Data Methodology: Quantification based on calibrated measurements, validated estimates, abstraction records, storage reconciliation, and seasonal variation analysis. Satisfaction measured through structured post-study feedback.
Challenge: Facility relied on multiple water sources with no verified understanding of actual withdrawal, storage losses, and seasonal dependency. Records showed mismatches between abstracted water and usable supply. Approval and sustainability planning were at risk.
Our Approach
System Boundary Definition: Defined water resource boundaries covering borewells, municipal supply, tanker inputs, storage tanks, internal distribution, reuse loops, and discharge points.
Source Assessment & Data Validation: Verified abstraction volumes, pumping durations, storage capacities, and historical records.
Quantification & Baseline Development: Prepared source-wise, use-wise, and seasonal water quantification baseline.
Risk Identification: Identified over-dependency on select sources, undocumented storage losses, and seasonal stress points.
Planning Support: Provided data-backed inputs for reuse planning, efficiency measures, and compliance alignment.
Documented Results
✓ Clear quantification of actual water availability
✓ Identification of 18% undocumented losses in storage and distribution
✓ Seasonal risk visibility across peak demand months
✓ Reliable baseline for future water balancing and audit studies
