Description
The Brewery industry faces a critical environmental challenge with their water footprint due to the water-intensive nature of beer production.
To address this, breweries are adopting diverse strategies to cut down water usage and prioritize sustainability targets in their operations and processes. They are enhancing water efficiency in production and bottling plants, adopting the reduce, reuse, and recycle approach, and partnering with water management experts to minimize water consumption in the full brewing and packaging processes.
Leveraging innovative technologies like digital tools, applying AI and water management systems has also led to significant reductions in water usage, marking a positive shift toward environmental conservation and industry-wide sustainability.
As reduction of the water usage also influences the wastewater and chemical (waste) balance of the plants the total process and procedures are of relevance. The circularity approach includes water chemicals and waste.
Join us in this session to learn more about water reduction possibilities, optimization of hygiene processes but also on full circularity to be prepared for reaching a sustainable future while successfully maintaining production of high-quality products.
