Year: 2023
Location: Pontevedra (Spain)
Scope: Waste water from an industrial installation can be reused in a large number of cycles, thus preserving this increasingly scarce resource. By making small contributions, and reducing consumption by up to 90%.
Capacity: Instant recovery of 8 m3/h
Final water application: Water reuse in industrial processes of surface coatings on aluminium (anodising and lacquering).
Source of water: Aluminium anodising baths and parts washers for lacquering.
Description:
The rinse water from the anodising baths, as well as the water from the metal parts washers prior to surface coating to clean the treated surfaces of impurities, must be in constant circulation to maintain the strict purity characteristics required by the process, thus generating a considerably high water consumption.
Properly treated, this water not only meets the requirements to guarantee the application but can also be reused in a large number of cycles to drastically reduce water consumption and with better qualities than those offered by the drinking water supply network, improving the results in terms of quality and preserving the scarce water resource.
