A number of business outlets and hotels saved 118 million litres in one year, enough to supply two medium-sized four-star hotels and a large factory.
The savings resulted from upgrades, including the installation of a sewage treatment plant, a process waste-water recycling plant, rainwater harvesting, flow rate valves in wash hand basins and the replacement of showers.
As part of the EU LIFE+ Investing in Water project, the Malta Business Bureau project audited enterprises’ systems, identified their water saving potential and made recommendations on how to increase efficiency.
