Get ready to dive into the fascinating world of circular economy, where water and energy act as both partners and counterparts. Discover how these interconnected concepts are revolutionizing the way we think about resource management and sustainability. Discover how circular economy strategies drive innovation, reduce environmental impacts, and create cross-sector opportunities. Explore the unique relationship between water and energy, where optimizing the use of one resource can have a direct impact on the other. Learn how efficient water management can enhance energy efficiency, and how renewable energy sources can help conserve water resources. Through real-life examples and success stories from Arla Foods Ingredients, this presentation will provide valuable insights into the practical application of these concepts. Join us on this journey, as we discuss the possibilities and benefits of circular economy from a holistic view, where water and energy intertwine as both partners and counterparts.

Water is an essential resource in the production of enzymes and in many regions water is becoming increasingly scarce. Reuse and recycling of water may be cost-efficient solutions to make sure that the water resources are managed in balance with the local conditions. However, when implementing water recycling projects with product contact in enzyme production for food and feed several challenges need considered including, food safety, certifications, costumer relations, regulations, technology implementation and operation, and handling of concentrated waste stream. Novonesis will present two cases where reuse and recycling of water has been implemented in enzyme production, one case from Denmark and one case from USA. Combined the cases will allow Novonesis to reduce ground water intake with 1.000.000 m3 per year. The projects demonstrate that re-cycle of water and wastewater is technical feasible and can be a cost-efficient way to decouple water consumption to economic growth.

In food production the need for cooling down and heating up the product is always present and the necessary supply systems always have a water consumption attached to them. Optimizing on the amount of energy we use therefore is often associated with a saving on water and vice versa. This is why heat pumps are ideal to replace low to medium grade heat distribution in an energy efficient way by utilizing the waste heat generated in production, while also reducing the amount of water used in the systems it replaces. This technology has very big potential, but also presents some design challenge that we need to take in to account, to make sure we have a balance between our cooling and heating needs. NIRAS has experience in heat pump system and when/where it makes sense to implement them in your production facilities, and will talk you through the pros and cons.

Many companies have set ambitious climate goals. We often hear that prioritizing sustainability compromises profitability. But what if you can pursue both? Program which is designed to turn your climate commitments into local actions across your enterprise and advance sustainable business growth, will be explained. Eg. How partnerships, can provide you with tiered, outcome-based water solutions tailored to your industry and ensuring businesses and their communities have access to the water they need to thrive.

Industry is a large consumer of water and energy, with > 22 % of the total global water withdrawals being used for industrial purposes1. Water is one of the most important ingredients in food manufacturing and has become a high-cost resource with progressive constraints on supply and discharge. Often water treatment systems are not running at the most optimized setting which results in water loss and high energy use. While this problem is global – the solutions are highly local, giving rise to the opportunities for food and beverage industries to lower their water and energy consumption, while optimizing their water treatment systems. This talk will present a case story and highlight the benefits of optimizing water treatment application with a holistic approach with focus on both water AND energy savings. This also helps food and beverage industries gain overview of their water and energy usage while accomplishing their sustainability goals.

12:30-12:35 Welcome - Anette Colding, Director, Klimatorium 12:35-13:05 RuBisCo from green biomasses - Challenges and Opportunities - Hart Tanambell, Dept. of Food Science Aarhus University Green biomass, such as alfalfa, red & white clovers, and grasses, have gained attention as promising alternative protein sources that can be locally sourced in Denmark. Monogastric feed production from these plants have been running at full scale, but breakthrough for food is yet to be achieved. The challenges and opportunities within this area from an academic perspective will be discussed 13:05-13:15 Biobreak and introduction to the next presentation - Lærke Nielsen, Klimatorium 13:15-13:45 Water Supply for new soft drinks factory in England - Søren Hvilshøj, Senior Market Director, NIRAS Sufficient water of drinking water quality is a licence to operate for all food businesses. Unfortunately, water resources in many parts of the world have become significantly more squeezed in recent years, and at the same time as companies' increased focus on sustainability. Moreover, it cannot always be assumed that the local water supply has the capacity to supply the required amount of water to new, larger food factories. NIRAS has carried out a technical assessment of various possible locations for a large soft drink factory, which in full production will require between 2-3 million m3 of water annually. On the otherwise optimal site, the local English water supply has announced that with the required water consumption for the factory, they will have to transport the drinking water from a fairly large distance with great costs as a result. NIRAS has therefore suggested that the company look at alternative water resources 13:45-14:00 Biobreak and introduction to the next presentation - Anette Colding Brun, Klimatorium 14:00-14:30 Water efficiency in the dairy industry - Søren Nøhr Bak, Senior Expertice Director - Water & Sustainability, NIRAS & Rolf Pedersen, Expertice Director, NIRAS Sustainability in the food industry will typically be focused on the 3 essential elements: CO2, the utilization of raw materials and water. This is also true in the dairy industry, where water is gaining more importance. Over the past few years, NIRAS has carried out several projects on optimizing water consumption at dairies, where a review has been carried out of the operation in relation to the possibilities of the 4Rs: (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle & Rethink). In the presentation, the method used for optimization will be presented, as well as practical examples of how it is possible to achieve a reduction in water consumption, and in some cases approach the dream of the waterless dairy, where the water used for production comes to the dairy in the form of milk. 14:30-15:00 Building a Water-Efficient Future: Tetra Pak’s Innovative Solutions for Sustainable Food Production - Martin Carlsson, Senior Nature Project Manager Water, Sustainability, Tetra Pak & Anders Göransson, Product Manager Water management & CIP optimization, Factory Sustainability Solutions, Tetra Pak Processing Solutions & Equipment As water scarcity and energy conservation become increasingly critical concerns in many regions worldwide, the food industry must take swift and innovative action. Today, water management has evolved into a core focus, essential for the future of sustainable food production. Tetra Pak is at the forefront of this effort, actively engaging in water and energy conservation along its entire value chain. Through our Factory Sustainable Solutions, we offer a diverse range of technologies - including heat pumps, solar thermal systems, and advanced filtration techniques - that supports our customers in significantly reducing water usage and optimizing cleaning operations. This session will dive into Tetra Pak’s comprehensive sustainability agenda and portfolio, showcasing real-world examples of how these helps build a more water-efficient future. Together, we can address one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time and ensure that future generations have access to the resources they need.

Plast er et forholdsvis udskældt valg af emballage. Forbrugerne forbinder plast med forurening i naturen og CO2-udledning, men plasten er i mange tilfælde er et smart valg for at undgå madspild på en let, billig og tilgængelig måde.

Fra mange brancher er der allerede i dag stor efterspørgsel efter genanvendt PET. Men hvordan kan vi opnå øget cirkularitet og reducere brugen af nyproduceret plast, hvis efterspørgslen efter PET fra returflasker bare stiger og stiger?
