2000年8月15日,阿纳海姆市议会批准了南加州大都会水区(MWD)阿纳海姆市与Alstyle Apparel and Activewear(Alstyle)之间的一项融资协议。该协议为Alstyle位于阿纳海姆的染色厂的水再利用项目(Project)提供部分资金,该项目将使其每月用水量减少约1100万加仑。Alstyle是一家高质量的纺织品生产商和后整理商,也是阿纳海姆公用事业公司最大的工业用水客户之一。
该融资协议要求MWD在五年内向Alstyle提供高达309309美元的资金,而该项目本身每年将为Alstyle节省约22.2万美元的运营成本。阿纳海姆公用事业公司负责监督该项目,核实并向MWD提交季度发票,并根据相关节水处理向Alstyle支付的款项。据估计,该项目每年可节约401.7英亩英尺(1.31亿加仑)的水,在五年内可节约超过6.55亿加仑的水-
合同有效期为一年。作为阿纳海姆最大的工业用水者之一,Alstyle对淡水和下水道排放收取大量费用,因此,选择将水处理和再利用视为纺织染整的基本操作。该项目的主要目标是安装一个水回用系统,将浴循环与染色机分离,作为回用水和下水道排放水。中水回用系统的规模可以处理高达30%的计划用水率。
这将允许Alstyle在不超过其下水道排放能力的情况下扩大其产量。自2001年2月6日正式投产以来,该项目运行平稳高效,每月平均节水1100-1200万加仑,仅略高于最初估计。自1997年MWD董事会批准其商业、工业和机构(CII)保护计划的工艺部分以来,阿纳海姆是MWD 26个成员机构中第一个成功谈判水工艺变更融资协议的机构。
阿纳海姆很高兴成为第一家,并急于与其他阿纳海姆企业签订类似的融资协议,以保护和保护加利福尼亚州的水资源。
On August 15, 2000, the Anaheim City Council approved a funding agreement between the City of Anaheim, the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD), and Alstyle Apparel and Activewear (Alstyle). The agreement provides partial funding for a Water Reuse Project (Project) at Alstyle's dyeing facility in Anaheim that will reduce its monthly water use by about 11 million gallons. Alstyle is a high quality producer and finisher of textile goods and is one of Anaheim Public Utilities' largest industrial water customers. The funding agreement requires MWD to provide Alstyle up to $309,309 over a five-year period, while the Project itself will save Alstyle about $222,000 annually in reduced operating costs. Anaheim Public Utilities is responsible for monitoring the Project, verifying and submitting quarterly invoices to MWD, and processing payments to Alstyle based on the associated water savings. The Project is estimated to save 401.7 acre-feet (131 million gallons) of water annually resulting in savings of over 655 million gallons of water over the five-year life of the contract. As one of Anaheim's largest industrial water users Alstyle incurs substantial charges for fresh water and sewer discharge and, therefore, chose to view water treatment and reuse as a fundamental operation of textile dyeing and finishing. The primary goal of the Project is the installation of a water reuse system that segregates bath cycles from the dye machines as reuse water and as sewer discharge water. The water reuse system is sized to handle up to 30 percent of the planned water consumption rate. This will allow Alstyle to expand its production volume without exceeding its sewer discharge capacity. Since the official date of commissioning, February 6, 2001, the Project is operating smoothly and efficiently, averaging water savings between 11-12 million gallons monthly, only slightly more than originally estimated. Since MWD's Board of Directors approved the Process Component of their Commercial, Industrial, and Institutional (CII) Conservation Program in 1997, Anaheim is the first of MWD's 26 member agencies to successfully negotiate a water process change funding agreement. Anaheim is pleased to be the first, and is anxious to enter into similar funding agreements with other Anaheim businesses in order to protect and preserve California's water resources.
