Recently, I wrote an article on how industrial facilities are using less water, which was published in “Industrial Safety and Hygiene” magazine.

I want to share with you some of the key points I made in that article:

Let’s begin:

Many people are not aware that manufacturers are making considerable progress in reducing water consumption.

They are doing this because it is simply good business. The less water used, the less these industries must pay for water, and in some cases, the cost of water may be one of their most significant expenses.

As to how they are accomplishing this, among the ways are the following:

· Changing employee behaviors. organizations are working with their staff — even creating training programs — to discuss the importance of reducing water consumption and provide them ways to do so.

· Benchmarking consumption. Many facilities
have no idea how much water they are consuming. They need to measure and meter water consumption to create a benchmark.

· Analyzing the water bill. Water utility bills should be delivered to the operations officer and not accounts payable, as is all too frequently the case.

· Distribution of prizes and incentives. Some administrators now award prices and provide other types of incentives to those
divisions that have reduced water consumption within a certain period.

· Checking restroom fixtures. Evaluate the restroom fixtures in use.
If they are more than a few years old, consider transferring to “high efficiency” fixtures. As it pertains to urinals, no-water urinal technology can result in a dramatic reduction in water
consumption.

As always, I appreciate hearing from you. Your comments and thoughts are welcome.
