Water Drivers for minimisation ?
Is the site using too much water? Is the site paying too much in effluent charges? EPR system -Target setting and performance reporting
Increasing water scarcity Company reputation Sustainability

Where Do We Start ?
Gathering the base information: Water survey Water sources
Water uses and volumes Is it necessary? Disposal

How Do We Measure Flow?
Simple but effective
Reading existing meters
Bucket and stopwatch
More complex, Flowmeter Pump Curves
If it isnt measured, it cant be controlled!

Site Water Balance - Does it Balance?
Water Balance should aim to achieve 95% accountability

Accounting For Discrepancies
Method Reason for inconsistency or solution
Walking Round Site Incorrectly set valves or control systems, leaks,broken valves pipes or other equipment
Discussions with staff Previously unidentified or cross connections, orunidentified take-up by product
Employee Suggestion schemes Excessive or unnecessary use
No Blame Brainstorming Unknown or unauthorised use
Examine previous water and If changes cannot be explained by processeffluent bills modifications, then investigate further, e.g. relate
water to output, i.e. m per unit of production,department or area
If water Balance cannot achieve 95% accountability examination of thefollowing areas/reasons may assist improving the balance?

Identifying Opportunities toReduce Water use - Input
Starting with the largest water use, consider foreach use shown on the water balance:
Is the process/activity really necessary? Is it necessary to use water for theprocess/activity or could there be a cost-effectivealternative? Why does the process/activity use so much water? Could a lower quality of water be used, e.g.recycled water?
Can water be recover and re-used elsewhere? Is the use authorised and legal?

Identifying Opportunities toReduce Water use - Effluent
Is it necessary to produce this wastewater
effluent? Is clean water going down the drain and, if so,why? Is the discharge authorised and legal? Can the wastewater/effluent be re-used in a
process or used for lower grade duties, e.g.cleaning? Would it be cost-effective to treat thewastewater/effluent on-site for re-use?
Starting with the largest wastewater/effluent flow, considerfor each flow shown on the water balance:
