TCL CSOT Suzhou Factory Advanced Cascading Water Reuse

TCL CSOT Established a Multi-source Reclaimed Water Reuse System

TCL CSOT has established a reclaimed water collection and reuse system to recover multiple water sources, including reverse osmosis concentrate and air conditioning condensate. The recovered water is reused in processes such as waste gas scrubbing towers, cooling towers, and pure water preparation. Additionally, a portion of the reclaimed water is directly applied to CVD and DRY equipment. This initiative effectively reduced the intensity of fresh water withdrawal and promoted the extension of water recycling to more production processes.

TCL CSOT Suzhou Factory Advanced Cascading Water Reuse

TCL CSOT Suzhou Factory is committed to enhancing water use efficiency by advancing water reuse and alternative water practices. Through optimizing the water structure, the factory reduced its reliance on municipal tap water. During production operations, the plant optimized its cooling water system by recovering blower cooling water to the intermediate water pool for recycling, thereby reducing cooling water consumption. Simultaneously, while ensuring safety and compliance, reclaimed water was gradually substituted for municipal tap water in processes such as fire-fighting water replenishment, plate-and-frame washing, and solid chemical preparation.Building on this foundation, Suzhou Factory further expanded pathways for efficient reclaimed water utilization by using reclaimed water as feedwater for the factory’s pure water system and recycling it into the primary reverse osmosis (RO) product water tank, thereby achieving cascaded utilization of reclaimed water in the process water stage. Through the aforementioned measures, the factory has progressively established an internal water circulation system centered on reclaimed water reuse. This initiative ensures stable production operations while effectively reducing the intensity of fresh water withdrawal and enhancing water resource utilization in the manufacturing process.
