Water performance

Optimize your water resources: Ekium helps you achieve water efficiency

 Let's discuss your needs

Rising water bills, regulatory pressure, water restrictions during droughts? Our Water Performance expertise helps you reduce your water consumption and optimize your water usage (reduction, reuse, recycling).

Winner of the National Engineering Grand Prize for "Decarbonizing Industry" (2023 & 2024), we combine technical expertise (processes, utilities, buildings) with financial engineering to develop your water roadmap and maximize public funding (ADEME, CEE, BPI, Regional Authorities).

Our approach: we primarily support our clients through high-value-added consulting services (audits, feasibility studies, master plans). Ekium’s engineering team then leads the implementation phases (from preliminary design to commissioning), where we bring our multi-disciplinary technical expertise to bear.

Our key contacts: decision-makers responsible for corporate/group strategy (CEO, Industrial Director, CSR/Sustainability Director, Energy Director) or plant operations (Plant Manager, Energy/Utilities Manager, Environmental Manager).

Your challenges

  • High bills

    Impact on competitiveness

  • Water stress and restrictions

    Recurrent droughts, prefectoral decrees, threat to production continuity

Water Performance

1 - Reduction: reduce the site’s water consumption, anticipate restrictions during droughts 2 - Reuse: reuse water internally, secure production, utilize alternative resources (rainwater, graywater) 3 - Recycling: treat wastewater before discharge, anticipate future regulatory constraints

Implementation of a measurement and analysis plan: mapping of usage, identification of waste

Water roadmap: prioritizing actions based on ROI and criticality
