Water conservation by industry - A case study of Kirloskar Brothers Limited (Pune)

The various initiatives taken up include installing sensors/push type tap for hand wash/urinals, close loop hydro testing, installing drip irrigation and sprinklers for garden, installing float valves for old overhead tank, using percolated rain water for process, use of AC condensed water, use of air cooled instead of water cooled compressors, treating waste water and more.

As a result of these efforts, the specific water consumption reduced significantly.
