Reducing hazards while increasing profits was a major focus for this mid-sized data center. Its aging infrastructure presented a unique challenge to Earthwise.
Surveying the facility, our Certified Water Technologists (CWT) identified water opportunities throughout the facility with the goal of reducing the data center's water footprint, minimizing risk and cutting operating expenses.
An Ion-Exchange System and solid chemical system were installed. The Ion-Exchange system's pretreatment of the water allowed the cycles of concentration to be increase to 10. This reduced the need to replenish the makeup water and the amount of chemistry needed to treat the system. Using solid chemical system optimized floor space, reduced shipping costs and improved safety.
