Veolia advocates for sustainability by financing eco-friendly environmental projects
In the realm of environmental and economic sustainability, French multinational company Veolia is making significant strides in the food and beverage sector, particularly in Southern Africa. With over 170 years of global experience, Veolia's regional understanding ensures that its solutions are relevant and impactful, navigating the complexities of sustainable industrial operations.
Veolia's innovative strategies in water treatment, waste management, energy efficiency, and digital innovation are embedded within its global ecological transformation framework called the GreenUp strategic plan. Tailored solutions focused on sustainability, resource circularity, and digitalization are at the heart of Veolia's approach.
In the realm of water treatment, Veolia implements advanced technologies such as Hydrotech™ Cloth Filter for enhanced filtration effectiveness. They also address the challenge of managing contaminants like PFAS—highly persistent chemicals—through their comprehensive BeyondPFAS integrated solution. This solution covers contaminant detection, treatment, and disposal, ensuring compliance with stringent water safety standards.
Waste management and the circular economy are other key areas where Veolia excels. They operate hazardous and industrial waste treatment facilities, managing millions of tonnes of waste safely. Their emphasis on waste valorization and circular economy models is evident in their acquisition of companies like Chameleon Industries in North America, which supports industries, including food and beverage sectors, to minimize environmental impact.
Energy efficiency is another critical aspect of Veolia's strategy. In 2024, Veolia produced 42 million megawatt hours of energy, reflecting substantial efforts in energy recovery and renewable solutions integral to their support for industry clients aiming to improve energy footprints.
Digital innovation plays a significant role in Veolia's operations. They lead projects harnessing wastewater epidemiological surveillance for real-time public health monitoring, indicating their capability to integrate digital tools and data analytics in water systems. This smart monitoring not only supports health resilience but also improves operational efficiency, a vital consideration for industries sensitive to water quality and compliance, including food and beverage.
Veolia's commitment to Southern Africa is evident in their partnership with Norfund to offer funded environmental solutions, supporting industries in South Africa and Africa in decarbonisation, depollution, and resource regeneration. Through this strategic partnership, Veolia stands out as a leader in sustainable innovation for the food and beverage sector.
Veolia's water treatment technology ensures regulatory compliance and significant reductions in water consumption. Their energy efficiency solutions, including cogeneration systems and renewable energy integration, enable manufacturers to cut energy costs while lowering carbon emissions. Veolia helps industries build resilience against climate uncertainties while maintaining high production standards by optimizing water use.
