ABOUT VEOLIA WATER TECHNOLOGIES
DETAILS
Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies (Thailand) Ltd
is proud to announce its first partnership with
a Thai conglomerate company that operates
12 paper production plants throughout Southeast Asia.
To support the client’s plan of achieving a 30% expansion
in capacity for its paper plant in Prachinburi (Thailand),
Veolia will spearhead a series of proprietary studies, including
* an in-house Water System Audit,
* Pulp & Paper (P&P) Industry Water Benchmark,
* Water Impact Index (WIIX), and
* the True Cost of Water (TCOW).
Conducted over a period of twelve weeks,
the paper plant assessment will feature
a series of consecutive studies that commences with
an in-depth water system audit.
The results are then benchmarked against
other regional and global P&P companies’ scores
using Veolia’s Pulp & Paper industry Water Benchmark.
Consolidated based on Veolia’s knowledge, experience, and
references in the P&P industry over the years,
the industry water benchmark provides an effective scale
for companies to better understand
their water consumption practices against
other manufacturers in the industry.
The water assessment also includes
the Veolia Water Impact Index (WIIX) tool that
measures the plant’s water footprint and
considers three crucial elements -
* the quantity of water used,
* the level of stress on water resources, and
* the overall quality of the water.
This enables the client to outline and
set more efficient water strategies in place
to mitigate existing water challenges such as
* water scarcity and
* the impact of water risk on the environment, in order to
achieve a lower total water footprint.
