Speaking of low hanging fruits....

Operating a waste water treatment plant with the aim of "zero discharge" is a science in itself. Most textile companies have a separate team of well trained staff to ensure proper operation of the effluent treatment plant (ETP).

The ETP manager of one of our pilot companies indicated that it would be useful for him to know what colours would be dyed in the dyeing unit on any specific day, since that is one of the factors that determines the pollution load of the water supplied to the ETP.

Since the dyeing unit of this particular company is planning its dye batches well in advance, it was found to be feasible to communicate the planning of the dye batches on a weekly basis to the ETP manager, enabling him to operate the ETP even more efficiently.
