Water reuse and savings
Reduce, recycle, reuse. Up to 20 percent water savings with CCRO, our closed-circuit reverse osmosis.
Reduce, recycle, reuse. We map the water flows in your plant, cut discharges and put water back into the process. For the reuse of treated wastewater, we deploy CCRO, a closed-circuit reverse osmosis that is highly resistant to biological fouling. Measured results for this technology: 10 to 20 percent energy savings, cleaning frequency divided by 4 to 6, and 20 percent water savings on water loaded with silica and sulfates. It also recovers concentrate from an existing reverse osmosis unit and treats high-salinity water. With ICE Water Management, we deliver the installation, regulatory support and operator onboarding.
What we cover
- Water savings audit: flow mapping in quantity and quality, loss identification, recommendation report
- Discharge reduction: process optimization to discharge less and reuse more
- Process water recycling: treated water looped back to process and utilities
- Wastewater reuse: treatment of treated wastewater from the treatment plant outlet for industrial use
- CCRO technology: closed-circuit reverse osmosis, high resistance to biological fouling, adaptable to variable effluents
- Concentrate recovery: valorization of reverse osmosis concentrate and high-salinity water
- Wash water recycling: treatment and reuse of glass bottle washing water, WASA process
- Regulatory support: help with production and use authorizations
- Equipment upgrade: lower water and energy consumption on existing lines
Use cases
Treated wastewater from the treatment plant outlet is taken in by a CCRO unit and sent back to your utilities or process. Results: 10 to 20 percent less energy, cleaning frequency divided by 4 to 6.
The concentrate of an existing osmosis unit, or any high-salinity water, goes through CCRO to produce usable water instead of going down the drain. Results: 20 percent water savings on water containing silica and sulfates.
Full audit, flow mapping, discharge reduction, bottle washing water recycling. You cut the cost per produced litre and preserve the resource.
Frequently asked questions
What is wastewater reuse?+
The reuse of treated wastewater. Water leaving your treatment plant, or any other source with a high organic load, is treated again to serve utilities or process instead of being lost.
What is the difference between CCRO and conventional reverse osmosis?+
CCRO runs in closed circuit: the concentrate recirculates instead of going continuously to the drain. This high tangential flow cleans the membranes permanently. The result: high resistance to biological fouling, 10 to 20 percent less energy, and 4 to 6 times fewer cleanings.
Which effluents can be reused?+
Treated wastewater, reverse osmosis concentrates, high-salinity water and water containing silica or sulfates. Variable feed water is not an obstacle, CCRO is particularly suited to it.
What gains should I expect?+
With CCRO technology: 10 to 20 percent energy savings, cleaning frequency divided by 4 to 6, and 20 percent water savings on water containing silica and sulfates. An audit quantifies your exact potential before any investment.
Do I need an authorization to reuse water?+
Yes, reuse is regulated. We support you through the production and use authorization process, with the technical file of the installation.
