Sustainable brewing and distilling - Water

Brewing - water


Packaging of cans and bottles


Confirm equipment uses water at its recommended consumption


Signs that significant water savings are possible:


Automate the pre-washing of cans or bottles so that the water is immediately switched off when run stops


Consider re-using final rinse waters as first rinses


Automate the tunnel pasteurisation of cans or bottles so that the water jets are immediately switched off when run stops


Automate the bottle washing so that rinses are off when conveyor is stationary


Avoid where possible running the line partially loaded


Ensure caustic detergent strengths are correctly controlled


Clean conveyor belts with pressure washers


Crates. Consider an “ultrasonic bath” system for good water economy.
