In 2023, Atlanfish Ltd surpassed their milestone target by 5.5% by reducing their water consumption from 29 m3/tonne in 2022 to 22.4 m3/tonne. This reduction was credited to strategic upgrades in cooling infrastructure, particularly the installation of new cooling towers. These towers replaced an outdated system, leading to enhanced efficiency and a substantial decrease in water usage. Additionally, a new water softener system implemented in May 2023 further reduced water consumption by preventing scale accumulation and enabling the boiler to operate more efficiently. These measures reflect Atlanfish Ltd’s commitment to sustainable practices and underscore the importance of investing in modern infrastructure and adopting innovative solutions for water efficiency.
