Save water at industrial premises
Reduce water by re-evaluating your processes
Guide
Reviewing the production processes that you use within your business can reveal potential areas where you can save water. The savings that your business could make include:
- reduced water cost
- reduced effluent charges
- eliminating the need to treat effluent before discharge
- reduced disposal of wastes and sludges
- product recovery
Your business should evaluate its water use in the context of the processes it uses in its day-to-day operation. Often a small change to a process can deliver significant water savings and a reduction in cost as well - see process efficiency to cut waste.
