The organization incorporates material recycling practices into its operational processes, with a focus on the recirculation of effluents and the reuse of byproducts generated during industrial treatment. The facilities are equipped with industrial and sanitary wastewater treatment plants, where liquid waste undergoes physicochemical processes that remove solids and precipitate metals. Some of the resulting materials, such as sludge and solids containing metals, are reintegrated into the production process or directed to internal systems, reducing the need for primary inputs and promoting greater efficiency in resource use.

Furthermore, at facilities where there is no effluent discharge or where the operational strategy prioritizes a closed-loop system, water and associated materials are continuously recirculated, preventing losses and minimizing waste generation. Quality standards for reuse and disposal are defined based on applicable laws and internal guidelines, ensuring that reused materials meet technical, environmental, and operational criteria. This approach reinforces the organization’s commitment to the circular economy, waste reduction, and the sustainable use of natural resources.
No facility disposes of materials without defined legal requirements. In addition, operations take into account the characteristics of receiving water bodies and work to mitigate impacts through initiatives such as spring restoration and environmental education in local communities.
