One of the ways to optimise the use of resources is by interconnecting machines. #HCCB’s newer factories are being built that way. However, connecting machines at the legacy factories is a challenging but richly rewarding exercise. 
In legacy factories, most processes are automated but not necessarily connected on a real-time basis. In newer factories like the one in #Sanand, #Gujarat,
end-to-end digital connectivity ensures that machines analyse data from different interfaces on a real-time basis across 5,000 different information sites. This interconnection ensures seamless communication between people, processes, and machines.
#HCCB turned #waterpositive, half a decade ago. Simply stated, ‘water positive’ means that HCCB returns more water to the aquifer than it uses in its operations. While a large part of HCCB’s #sustainability efforts is focused on ensuring water positivity,
we also work towards lowering the Water Usage Ration (WUR) in our daily operations. WUR indicates the total quantity of water used to produce one liter of #beverage. With this view, our factory in #Khorda #Odisha introduced a new Ultra Filtration,
Reverse Osmosis (UFRO) system in the Effluent Treatment Plant, wherein the wastewater is treated with the UFRO technology to an extent that it is recycled for multiple purposes such as cleaning, washing during the manufacturing process, and a lot more.
As a responsible user of #water, HCCB’s approach to #waterstewardship incorporates a multitude of initiatives such as the construction of check dams, desilting, and restoration of ponds and natural water bodies, rainwater harvesting,
and building bunds and conservation tanks and so much more. These initiatives help us maintain water positivity which means that we return more water to the aquifer than we use in our operations. An example of this can be seen in #Gujarat,
where our water recharge shafts enabled us to replenish 100% of the water that we consumed in 2021. Going a step further, #HCCB replenished 12.98 L kiloliters of water in #Rajasthan, despite having no operations in the state.
For a long time, #farmers in the #Goblej village in #Gujarat dedicated their time and effort to cultivating #paddy. It was their sole source of income, so they harvested it twice a year.
However, this wasn’t yielding benefits for the farmers since paddy cultivation needs a lot of water and the rainfall has been deficient over the last few years. Moreover, growing the crop during summers,
additional use of fertilisers to maintain the fields, and excessive requirement of water resulting in soil degradation, added to the woes.
