LIFE_REWAINCER: New model for the application and use of reclaimed water in industrial environments in the ceramics sector 13/09/2023

NEW MODEL FOR THE APPLICATION AND USE OF RECLAIMED WATER IN INDUSTRIAL ENVIRONMENTS IN THE CERAMICS SECTOR. LIFE_REWAINCER

LIFE REWAINCER is a 1.3 million euro demonstration project that aims to reduce the extraction of fresh water from the aquifers of Castellón and the water stress they suffer, through the validation of water reclamation technologies that allow the direct use of reclaimed water in industrial processes at the scale of the highly water-demanding ceramics sector, helping to ensure the economic development of the region and increasing the amount of water resources available.

For this purpose, a complete pilot plant will be implemented on an industrial scale, consisting of an innovative system for the regeneration of treated wastewater from the Cabanes wastewater treatment plant. This plant will generate an alternative water source of suitable quality to supply the water demand of an atomized powder production plant, through the connection of a distribution network that will allow us to validate the entire process. This pilot will be fully monitored, as well as the environmental benefit generated.

This will lead to the design of a business and/or service model that will be replicated in at least 13 ceramic industries in Castellón.

The LIFE REWAINCER consortium is composed of a multidisciplinary combination of industrial and academic actors: FACSA (coordinator) has experience in the construction and management of wastewater treatment plants, while SAMCA (EUROARCE) is a multinational ceramics company that will be in charge of demonstration and validation. The ITC-AICE research center provides expertise in innovative water treatment technologies, ceramic processes and environmental analysis techniques.

The project will have a very relevant impact at different levels, and after its implementation, thanks to the planned replication and exploitation actions. The results of LIFE REWAINCER are expected to promote the adoption of the proposed solutions not only for the ceramic sector, but also by other industrial sectors with high water demand, such as the textile sector, both nationally and in other EU countries, generating wide environmental benefits.
