Pathfinder water audits
Feedwater's Pathfinder is a water site study to examine the potential for water and waste stream minimisation. It is a process of various stages in a water site audit that investigates & identifies the implications for water reuse and reduction.
The process of conducting a study is typically undertaken in four stages.
Stage 1: Water Site study ( pathfinder )
A plan is developed to achieve client objectives based on established and accepted chemical engineering principles, this is achieved thorough plant audit.
The audit consists of many different actions by the Local Feedwater representative and audit specialist. Characterisation of the various water streams, identification of new viable sources and provision of new strategies are key in stage one.
Stage 2: Water modelling design and Management Evaluation
Stage Two will involve an investigation of the technical and economic merits of the water waste minimisation and various water reuse and recycle options identified in Stage One.
Stage two involves a feasibility study which includes development of a model to simulate client water chemistries. If appropriate, laboratory testing will be used to supplement this simulation. Stage Two will provide:
- A simple evaluation of expected water chemistry after modification to the current water management system, including all water reuse and recycle options.
- Technical risk/benefit analysis of water reuse and recycle options.
- Detailed recommendations for the next course of action.
- Identification of economics and costs involved.
- The risk/benefit analysis includes a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages for the various options.
Stage 3. The potential for Recycle.
Stage Three consists of pilot scale testing with our diagnostic system. Chosen waste water streams can be checked for waste water minimisation or potential contaminants. Further Water reuse and recycle option(s) could be identified.
proposed option is desired. Stage Three will provide:
- Verification of technical feasibility of waste streams and their contaminants related to specified heavy metals of concern.
- Refinement of the estimates made for system operating parameters.
Stage 4. Implementation of Actions
Actions for Reclaim and re-use are implemented using a monitoring support program.
A stage implementation program ensures client /site risk is minimised, water quality is continually assessed, and a risk register updated. Process and site process feedback is critical.
Separation of the study into four distinct stages maximises the opportunity for review and development by the client, as well as minimising the overall potential costs.
Each stage of this study has explicit goals and deliverables, which build on the findings of the previous stage. Each concludes with a report documenting the findings, conclusions, and recommendations for the next course of action.
If your business requires increased efficiency, lower effluent costs and a reduced unit cost of operation, consider Feedwater's pathfinder water audit.
