洞察力

作为水解决方案和服务的全球领导者,艺康始终致力于通过智能用水管理、水资源保护和管理,创造一个水资源更加安全的未来。到2030年,我们计划通过以下方式,持续实现对水资源的净正面影响:

  • 在运营厂区减少用水、循环用水及补充用水。 We aim to reduce water impact by 40% per unit production across our enterprise from a 2018 base year. 
  • 在高风险厂区回补超过50%的绝对取水量,保护当地流域。。
  • 位于高风险流域的艺康生产工厂获得水资源管理联盟(AWS)认证,实现了AWS标准的成果。

Ecolab's manufacturing facility located in Cuautitlán Izcalli, Mexico, is a key contributor to these goals. The Cuautitlán Izcalli facility primarily produces industrial cleaning and sanitizing chemicals. 

Its primary source of water is the Cuautitlán-Pachuca Aquifer. Domestic and industrial effluents are discharged into municipal drains that feed into the Río Cuautitlán after treatment.

The Cuautitlán Izalli facility was identified as a priority location to pursue AWS certification as well as to enhance the site's smart water management approach and implement innovative technologies to advance enterprise water goals.

措施

为了实现艺康的企业用水目标,当地团队的目标是到2030年将每吨产品的年用水量相比2018年减少40%。

The following projects help to improve the facility’s water balance and have been implemented to reduce overall water use:

  • Installation of a rainwater collection and purification system for use throughout operations
  • 更换喷球以优化冲洗效率并减少冲洗用水量
  • 加工设备清洗工艺流程的优化
  • 减少反渗透和去离子系统再生的用水量
  • 对储罐清洗系统进行改进
  • Installation of high-efficiency bathroom and locker room fixtures and valves

成果

As a result of these actions, the Cuautitlán Izcalli site achieved savings in water and energy use. The improvements have proved to be a helpful step forward in enhancing the efficiency of the site's operations and advancing Ecolab's sustainability goals.

水资源管理征途

艺康致力于在我们的设施中实现可持续的用水,并在地方层面与其他企业开展合作。​​​​​​​ In alignment with Ecolab's commitment to a holistic approach to water management across its manufacturing facilities, in 2021, the company achieved Core Certification for Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS) Version 2.0 International Water Standard at its Cuautitlán Izcalli site. 该工厂一直遵守最新的AWS要求,以维持核心认证。

To identify shared water challenges in the Cuautitlán-Pachuca Aquifer, a comprehensive risk assessment was performed leveraging insights from Ecolab’s Smart Water Navigator, and the World Resources Institute (WRI) Aqueduct Atlas. 根据风险概率以及对工厂层面和社区利益相关者的影响,优先实施减少取水项目。
Ecolab’s water stewardship approach aims to make a positive impact within our operations and on the water challenges within the communities we operate in. For the Cuautitlán Izcalli site and local stakeholders the top water related challenges include water scarcity, water infrastructure, water quality, biodiversity and flooding.

为了有效应对这些挑战,我们强有力的水资源管理方法力求持续改善可持续的工厂水平衡水质。我们的整体方法包括着眼于重要水相关领域水、公共卫生与个人卫生(WASH),而我们在所有这些关键领域的持续进展取决于我们强有力的水治理

Using the Ecolab Smart Water Navigator to quantify the progress made against the five AWS outcomes, the Cuautitlán Izcalli site is considered Water-Smart on the Water Maturity Curve. The Water Maturity Curve illustrates the quantified state of a site's water strategy and management plan. 工厂在曲线上的位置由一系列标准决定,其中包括治理和战略、目标设定、水资源管理实践和水资源管理。该标准采用与AWS框架五个成果一致的原则,均强调强有力的水资源管理包括持续改进和设施运营内外的协作。

可持续的水平衡

净正面水影响

在我们自己的运营中采用可持续的水平衡和智能水管理方法,是实现整个企业净正面水影响的关键组成部分。根据企业目标,当地团队的目标是到2030年,将工厂每吨产品的年用水量相比2018年减少40%。 The team at Ecolab's Cuautitlán Izcalli site assessed the facility for opportunities to decrease water use across operations to meet Ecolab's targets to create 2030 Positive Impact. 根据风险概率以及对工厂和社区利益相关者的影响,确定实施节水项目的优先次序。

水质

水质管理方法

To maintain good process and wastewater quality, water is tested daily in addition to third-party wastewater testing every six months. 对水进行处理以去除废水中的胶体、沉积物和有害物质。

在排放雨水和废水之前,工厂必须进行目视检查和检测,确认其符合当地环保要求、许可证限制或公司标准。如果没有当地环保要求或许可证限制,则必须满足公司针对将雨水排放到邻近水道或将废水排放到城市下水道系统的相关标准。如果发生泄漏或与水相关的问题,工厂拥有健全的事件响应计划,其中包括对原始事件的根本原因分析、内部报告平台中的文档记录以及缓解策略的传达。工厂与水相关的合规信息可应要求提供。

At the plant level, the safety, health and environment (SHE) manager and the SHE department is responsible for wastewater testing and compliance and wastewater discharges. 场地维护主管负责污水排放、用水控制和节水项目,并负责污水处理厂、软水和去离子水以及雨水收集系统的运行。此外,SHE经理还根据艺康内部的全球供应链环境政策和任何适用的外部法规负责水监测要求。

公司环境主管可就最新法规和废水合规性提供咨询服务。可应要求提供与工厂水源有关的合规信息,包括工厂为防止今后发生类似情况而采取的必要纠正措施。

公司可持续发展团队由可持续发展执行顾问团队(SEAT)提供指导和建议,该团队由公司最高级别的业务和部门领导组成。 In addition, Ecolab’s Sustainability, Water Stewardship and Global SHE positions are publicly available and serve as commitments to and guidance on water-related issues and compliance. 艺康的可持续发展立场正式确立了艺康对公司内部的可持续发展及其对客户影响的全球承诺。艺康的水资源管理立场通过为公司及其客户寻找以有利于企业、社区和大自然的方式利用水资源的机会,强化了艺康对负责任的水资源管理的全球承诺。 Ecolab’s Global SHE position outlines the company’s commitment to excellence in safety, health and environmental practices and performance across global operations.

集体行动

除了内部运营改进外,艺康库奥蒂特兰伊斯卡伊工厂的外部水资源管理活动也在持续进行。 Shared challenges between the plant and relevant, local stakeholders include water scarcity, water infrastructure, water quality, biodiversity, and flooding. 为解决这些共同问题,艺康与盆地中的其他用水户保持合作。库奥蒂特兰伊斯卡伊工厂团队与流域内的30多家企业、非政府组织和政府机构分享了其AWS认证历程。此外,艺康是库奥蒂特兰企业联盟的一员,该联盟致力于解决本地区的安全事件。

In 2024, Cuautitlán Izcalli site volunteers planted 320 trees in the Sierra de Guadalupe State Park to support ongoing reforestation efforts.

In 2023, the Cuautitlán Izcalli site joined three volunteer programs including leading a handwashing education event for a local secondary school. Site volunteers planted more than 600 trees and helped restore and maintain green spaces through various activities, including park cleanups, planting succulents, and supporting traditional chinampa agriculture in Xochimilco.

2021年,超过90名库奥蒂特兰和莱尔马工厂的志愿者帮助墨西哥州惠克斯基卢坎Piedra Grande社区的低收入家庭建造了移动水箱。 These cisterns enable increased storage and filtration of water that can be used for human consumption, animals or food production. From this volunteer work, 20 families and more than 200 people benefit.

In 2019, 100 volunteers from the Cuautitlán Izcalli and Lerma, Mexico sites partnered with The Nature Conservancy (TNC) and ProNatura to plant 2,000 trees in the community of San Andres Totoltepec in Mexico City in 2019.

On top of local water stewardship efforts, Ecolab’s global giving program, Solutions for Life, enhances the company’s mission to conserve and protect fresh water through partnerships and additional projects with The Nature Conservancy and the Project WET Foundation.
