Preliminary audit
Controlling water consumption and waste from the food industry

This is the first step in reducing water consumption and discharges.

The diversity of industrial discharges means, above all, that there are no ready-made solutions to be applied to any given plant, which must always be considered as a special case. It is therefore essential to carry out an initial analysis to identify water consumption and discharges by workshop and type of production, over complete production cycles.

Before starting the actual study, it is often useful to consult the purchasing department, in order to compare incoming flows and quantities of finished products. This will enable you to define the volume and amount of losses, which may be enough to convince you of the financial interest of this audit.
