WATER REUSE
& RECYCLING

Industrial wastewater reuse and recycling is an important consideration for any business with a wastewater treatment plant.  

As both consumers of water and dischargers of wastewater, businesses in every industry can play a huge role in reducing the demand for fresh water by recycling and reusing their treated wastewater.  

Not only is this sustainable approach better for the environment, but effective wastewater treatment equals more efficiency, reduced operational costs and greater compliance.

Protect your business
against stricter
wastewater legislation

Industrial wastewater reuse and recycling

Legislation regarding the effective treatment of industrial wastewater will likely become stricter, as governments begin to see it as an affordable and sustainable source of water reuse.

Legislation around industrial wastewater has already become more stringent:

Unlimited fines: The removal of the £250,000 cap means the Environment Agency can now impose penalties that reflect the severity of the offence.

Expanded scope: New rules target a wider range of industries and pollutants, with stricter limits on toxic metals.

Future developments: Regulations will likely continue to evolve, demanding greater accountability from businesses.

Failing to comply with these regulations can result in hefty fines, legal repercussions, and irreversible reputational damage. Taking action now is essential.
