Posted on 17 Nov, 2009 04:38 PMThe various strategies adopted by the company for recycling and reusing water included working for zero discharge, developing hydrophobia for water in unwanted places, eliminating all open drains, optimising/loading cooling towers to their 100%, reducing evaporation losses, radiator/air cooling, eliminating flash losses in steam usage, eliminating wastage, treating sewage and rain water harvesting.
Water conservation in industry - A case study of ITC Limited - Paperboards and speciality papers division - Kovai, Tribeni and Bhadrachalam units (Tamil Nadu)
Posted on 17 Nov, 2009 04:32 PMSome of the initiatives taken up are, recirculation of fresh water from overhead tank for compressor cooling, reduction of sealing water in couch by use of anti friction bearing, refurbishing of steam and condenser circuit, sequencing of coloured laminating grade making, use of new generation centri-cleaner system, reduction of leakage of glandsealing water through use of mechanical seals, use of highly efficient imported vacuum pumps, reduction in consumption of make up water in cooling water, introduction of reverse osmosis system, utilisation of treated effluent water for irrigation and more.
Water conservation in industry - A case study from ITC Limited (Munger)
Posted on 17 Nov, 2009 04:29 PMWater conservation has been carried out through establishing an overall water balance, reducing at source, reusing in other beneficial applications after treatment (land scaping, toilet flushing, cooling tower applications and civil constructions), and recycling back to process applications after appropriate treatment.
Water conservation in industry - A case study of IFFCO (Phulpur)
Posted on 17 Nov, 2009 04:20 PMThis presentation explains the work of Indian Farmers' Fertiliser Cooperative Limited (IFFCO) in conserving water, in its industrial processes, through recycling and reducing water usage. Methods used were increasing cycle of concentration of cooling, recycling of turbine condensate, installing water spraying system in guard pond, effluent treatment based on steam stripper and reuse in processes, and rainwater harvesting.
