Water Sobriety: Clauger Accelerates the Transition Towards a More Sustainable Industry

♻️ Making Every Cubic Meter of Water Saved Count: A Strategic Priority for Industry

With growing pressure on water resources, Clauger supports its industrial clients in adopting a water sobriety approach, leveraging concrete, profitable, and sustainable solutions.

Water Sobriety

From the design phase, our teams integrate water consumption reduction strategies using proven levers:

  • Heat recovery from equipment or effluents cooled by water-based systems (condensers, cooling towers, compressors, etc.),

  • Replacement of high water-consuming cooling systems (e.g., groundwater systems) with more efficient alternatives (dry adiabatic systems),

  • Process equipment optimization, such as washer adjustments (e.g., -30% hot water at a food industry client),

  • Recovery of water contained in products or ambient air through drying, pressing, evaporation-concentration, or condensation (Clauger has numerous references in the food and industrial sectors).

  • Total or partial substitution of steam with a heat transfer fluid that consumes less water (e.g., closed hot water network).

👉 These projects help our clients to:

  • Reduce their water consumption,

  • Secure production during periods of restriction,

  • Meet regulatory requirements (DREAL, Prefecture, etc.),

  • Benefit from public subsidies covering up to 60% of project costs.
