Executive Summary
Barriers
The complexity of the site, due to its age and purpose as an R&D facility, required extensive data organization and processing to determine the most effective way to conserve water within the boundary conditions and priorities of the facility.
Challenge
Develop a strategy to increase water conservation at an existing fab that operates as an R&D facility in addition to manufacturing product.
Solution
After creating a “Baseline” water model of the existing facility in FTD’s Water Management Application (WMA) platform, FTD evaluated centralized, decentralized, and hybrid water conservation strategies for the future site configuration. The selected strategy was optimized for the site’s specific conditions and client priorities.
Impact
The selected strategy is projected to increase the site’s internal water reuse rate by 19% while remaining in compliance, minimizing reliability risks, and avoiding the need to build a costly end-of-pipe (EOP) treatment system. FTD provided ROM costs for the selected strategy and viable alternative strategies should more extensive reclaim be required.
