Aquachem: Our Commitment to Sustainability
We are committed to providing water treatment solutions that not only improve efficiency but also help businesses minimise their environmental impact. Our approach integrates innovative technologies and sustainable practices, ensuring that we contribute to a greener, more sustainable future.
Key Sustainable Practices
- Promoting the Use of Solid Chemicals: Over 80% of our customers use solid chemicals, which are more environmentally friendly. Solid chemicals require less transportation and packaging, reducing emissions and waste. They also consume 93% less energy in manufacturing than liquid chemicals.
- Innovative Solutions to Reduce Water Usage: We use cutting-edge technologies, such as Huwa-San, which reduces water consumption by 66% during water tank cleaning and disinfection. Moreover, our partnership with DosaFil® has enabled smart flushing of heating and chilled systems, eliminating unnecessary water waste.
- Water Recycling through Filtration Methods: Aquachem supplies AFM filters that can filter to 1 micron, allowing water to be recycled back into the system. These filters use 50% less backwash water than traditional filters and are made from recycled glass, supporting our commitment to circular economy principles.
- Monitoring Water and Energy Usage: Using smart meters and our flex system, we track water and energy consumption, helping clients identify areas for improvement and reduce waste. Our solutions help businesses make informed decisions that contribute to lower energy costs and optimised water usage.
- Increasing Equipment Efficiency: Our water treatment solutions prevent the buildup of corrosion, scale, and biofilms, which enhances the efficiency of equipment. This results in reduced energy usage, longer equipment lifespan, and better overall system performance.
Internal Sustainability Initiatives
Sustainability isn’t just about what we do for our clients—it’s about how we operate internally:
- Battery Recycling: Our engineers use a variety of batteries for their equipment, and over the past 16 months, we’ve recycled over five boxes of used batteries, reducing waste and promoting sustainability.
- Reusable Water Bottles: To reduce plastic consumption, we provided our team with branded, reusable water bottles, encouraging eco-friendly practices both in and out of the office.
Continuous Improvement
We are always looking for new ways to improve our sustainability efforts. We work closely with international partners and constantly explore the latest environmentally friendly methods in water management.
