Challenge
Eurocircuits needed an efficient and sustainable solution for treating wastewater from its PCB production lines. The focus was on maximum water recovery and safe discharge in accordance with strict environmental standards.
Approach
Chosen Water Treatment
Selected Technologies
Result
Maximum efficiency, minimal impact. Thanks to a smart combination of technologies – including ion exchangers for rinse-water reuse, physico-chemical treatment and a selective polishing step for copper removal to < 0.05 ppm – Eurocircuits achieves a fully closed water loop in which both the environment and operating costs are strongly optimised.
The result speaks for itself:
60,000 m³ water saving per year
€110,000 annual cost saving
Official approval to safely discharge the purified water to surface water
A perfect interplay between environmental care, regulation and economic added value. Eurocircuits is a fine example of how technology and regulation can go hand in hand. Eco-Vision makes circular water management concrete.

Other cases
Bendec
Zero Liquid Discharge in aluminium treatment
For Bendec, Eco-Vision realised a mobile closed water circuit, reusing rinse water via ion exchangers and evaporating residual water with a vacuum evaporator on heat pump. Result: 11,000 m³ water savings, €22,000 annual savings and no more liquid discharge. 100% circular water management is now a reality.

Eurocircuits
Smart wastewater management in the PCB sector
Thanks to a combination of physico-chemical treatment and advanced ion exchangers, Eurocircuits reuses 60,000 m³ of water each year and reduces the copper content to below 0.05 ppm. Result: official authorisation to discharge to surface water and an annual saving of €110,000.

Datwyler
Closed water loop in the medical industry
At Datwyler, the rinse water from rubber components has been fully reused since 2018 via a reverse osmosis installation in closed loop. The result: 33,600 m³ less water consumption and €85,000 saving per year. Circular, pure and efficient.
