Nipro, a global leader in the glass manufacturing industry, has successfully implemented a sustainable and chemical-free cooling tower water treatment solution at its Aumale, France facility. In partnership with BWT France and HPNow, the company has adopted the BWT ECO-UV+ by HPNow system, featuring the innovative GOgen® technology. The full case study with details on this installation is available here.
Nipro’s commitment to environmental responsibility and operational excellence drove the search for a cutting-edge water treatment solution that would eliminate the use of chemicals while maintaining optimal cooling tower performance. The BWT ECO-UV+ by HPNow system, with its GOgen® technology, offers a ground-breaking approach by generating green oxidant on-site, effectively replacing traditional chemical treatments.
“BWT ECO-UV+ by HPNow has brought us a step forward in terms of both achieving our sustainability goals and improving our operational efficiency,” said Audrey Favre, Sustainability Manager at Nipro. “It has provided us with a cost-effective solution that aligns with our commitment to environmental stewardship and enhances our competitive edge in the industry.”
By adopting this innovative technology, Nipro has achieved several key benefits:
- Zero chemical discharge: Significantly reduced environmental impact and supported local biodiversity.
- Decreased emissions and waste: Eliminated CO2 emissions associated with chemical production and transportation, as well as plastic waste from chemical containers.
- Enhanced safety: Reduced the risk of chemical spills and exposure, creating a safer workplace for employees.
- Improved operational efficiency: Fully automated system streamlined operations and reduced maintenance requirements.
The BWT ECO-UV+ by HPNow system operates seamlessly, generating Peroxide UltraPure™ on-site and injecting it into the cooling water loop. The solution is safe, effective, and requires minimal maintenance.
