Resource Kit
Water Efficiency in African
Breweries
|
Introduction
This
resource kit was developed as part of the African
Brewery Sector Water Saving Initiative (ABREW).
The
ABREW project was aimed at assessing the current status and
opportunities for
reducing water use and wastewater generation of the African brewery
sector
through a cleaner production approach.
The project was
undertaken by a multidisciplinary team drawn from a variety of African
and other countries, under the leadership of the United Nations
Environment Programme. The initial phase concentrated on the
brewery sector in Ethiopia, Ghana, Morocco and Uganda.

3. The Water Audit Tool for
Breweries
This tool supports the water
assessment of a
brewery by preparing water balances for the relevant functions and
calculating theoretical potentials for savings. Two
breweries in Africa have been used as examples:
Brewery 1 (408 KB - xls)
Brewery 2 (1,790 KB - xls)
