The water needs of industrial clients

Food and beverage industry, Italy

Over the last few centuries factories have often been located near to water (rivers, canals, seas) for practical reasons.

In fact water:

  • firstly, facilitates the transport of raw materials and then of the finished products;
  • then, it facilitates the disposal of by-products or waste generated during the manufacturing process;
  • lastly, it is used during the manufacturing process itself.

Depending on the industrial requirements, the water abstracted from the natural environment is transformed into:

  • drinking water;
  • boiler water;
  • process water;
  • cooling water;
  • wash water;
  • water to protect against fire;
  • etc.

In addition, a wastewater system must always be installed in order to protect resources and the natural environment.
