To increase plant water efficiency and move toward zero liquid discharge (ZLD) while continuing to provide a reliable water system at a manufacturing facility, a confidential client hired Barr to perform an in-depth water system evaluation and recommend improvements. After modeling their water usage and distribution network, our recommendations included reducing source-water withdrawal reductions, adding internal water treatment and reuse, and repurposing water discharges from the facility.
