Spain is experiencing a worrying drought. Currently, 14,6% of the national territory is in a state of emergency due to water scarcity, 27,4% is on alert, and water reserves are at 57% across the country. In this context, efficient water management has become a priority for the industrial sector, especially for water-intensive sectors such as agri-food, ceramics, textiles, and petrochemicals, among others. SITRA, with nearly 25 years of experience and more than 150 managed facilities and 250 industrial references, has become a a leader in the technological transformation of the water cycle for industry, the generation of renewable gases and the production of biofertilizers.
In addition to water conservation, SITRA promotes the implementation of anaerobic solutions in the projects that They allow you to reduce energy consumption by up to 70%.At the same time, the company promotes the generation of renewable energy in the form of biogas at these facilities, which makes it possible not only to reduce CO2 emissions, but also to minimize waste generation and reuse it (biofertilizers), aligning with global sustainability goals.
Recirculation of almost all treated water
At SITRA's industrial water management plants, the efficiency achieved allows for the regeneration of water used in companies' production processes. The quality of this water makes it possible to reuse it in a wide range of applications, from urban to agricultural and industrial uses, contributing significantly to water sustainability.
The solutions implemented by SITRA, however, go beyond simply reducing water consumption. For example, in machining industries, SITRA's filtration technology removes suspended solids from the water, allowing for the reuse of nearly 100% of the water in the production process. This not only reduces costs but also improves process efficiency. Similarly, in cooling tower projects, SITRA achieves high-purity water, enabling increased concentration cycles and, consequently, a reduction in the amount of water required.
As Ricardo Sáez, CEO of SITRA, states, “Reducing water consumption and improving water use, along with energy savings, are not just matters of efficiency, but essential steps towards sustainability. In this sense, at SITRA we have become allies for industry in Spain, with solutions that benefit both the planet and companies.” He adds, “The water revolution in industry is already underway, and we are part of that revolution.”
