Since 2009, Pantarein Water has been working with Westmalle Brewery on a circular wastewater treatment project. Today, the brewery recovers up to 40% of its water for reuse.
For Pantarein Water, circularity means long-term partnerships. With Westmalle Brewery, we started by upgrading the existing treatment plant and conducting a performance study – both essential steps for continual improvement.
In 2011, we built a new system featuring:
All tanks are covered, and the technical components are housed in a dedicated building to reduce odour and noise.
In 2016, we added reverse osmosis, enabling the brewery to purify effluent to drinking water quality. The result? A 40% reduction in water use. We still support the site and evaluate performance monthly.
