Epuramat: Areas of application

Areas of application for the Box4Water are industry, smaller local communities and anywhere where fresh water is required quickly – disaster zones or construction sites, for example.

Economical: industrial cycles.

Industry is a major user of water, with companies often requiring large volumes of fresh water. Once it has been used in the production process, it is then drained away as wastewater. All of this costs money. Instead of this, the Box4Water creates a cycle, starting with the used production water. After treatment, it is available to the company again as purified water. This reduces costs and contributes to environmental protection. Instead of charges for using large volumes of fresh water, often the only cost is for replacing water lost though evaporation.

Practical: sensible solutions for local communities.

The EU Water Framework Directive, set for implementation by 2015, is forcing local communities across Europe to act. Even the smallest of them now have to take an active approach to improving treatment of their wastewater. The conventional solution: investing in pumping stations and building drainage systems to the nearest treatment plant as well as cleaning and maintaining the drains for years to come. The decentralized solution: Box4Water. This container-sized treatment plant is available at short notice, and can be up and running in the shortest of times. The water processed in the Box4Water also meets EU conditions and guidelines for the control of water pollution.

Reliable: deployment in disaster zones.

Dirty, undrinkable water causes diseases such as diarrhea, dysentery and cholera. They quickly take hold in refugee camps in particular, where large numbers of people have to live together at short notice and with no preparation. So - especially in places where there is not enough fresh water available. In most cases, access to ground water is no longer possible. Groundwater and wells are often contaminated. One of the major strengths of the Box4Water is that it can produce drinking water from polluted ground water - water that is desperately needed in a hurry in disaster zones.
