made with beer purified waters shower and laundry. That is, nothing more and nothing less than what a company in the United States produced that wanted to demonstrate the extent to which an element traditionally considered completely useless waste could be reused.
This American company Epic Cleantec is a craft beer Following the German style, we use recycled wastewater as the main ingredient.
The beer named after Epik Single Water BrewingIt is produced using recycled water from showers, laundry rooms and sinks. In a forty-story building called Fifteen Fifty in San Francisco. Systems were installed to collect, purify and reuse water.
It should be noted that the city of San Francisco is known internationally for being at the forefront of environmental regulations, and in this context, It systematically encourages all urban projects for water reuse.
Although the use of “gray” water to fill toilet cisterns or for irrigation is not new, this company has shown that it can go even further. «As a company, our aim is truly to showcasing the untapped potential of water reuse», detailed Aaron Tartakovsky, co-founder and CEO of Epic Cleantec, a company that collaborates with Devil’s Canyon Brewing Company in the production of this beer.
A rigorous filtering procedure
So how do you get this strange product? Recycled water is stored in a pre-filtration and balancing tank that balances the flow and reduces the size of the downstream system. After this it goes through a process Biological purification to eliminate the need for biological oxygen (BOD) and is meticulously filtered through a membrane with a nominal pore diameter of 0.04 microns. This water is disinfected with vseveral stages of ultraviolet light and chlorineEnsuring safety for reuse in non-potable applications.
Although beer cannot be purchased, current regulations still prevent this. Distributed at special eventslike lately United Nations Conference An event took place on Water in New York. The aim is to create a discussion about water sustainability. According to its founders, beer is considered a “show product.”
“To engage with people, to excite them and at the same time untapped potential in water reuse», explained Tartakovsky.
Taste: nothing to envy others
To those concerned about the safety of consuming recycled water, the company director actually reassured: The product may be safer for consumers than other beers. Due to the rigorous testing process it must go through in its production.
SimilarI am flavorThe creators assure that the eventual commercialization of this beer is undoubtedly the key factor in determining its success or failure. There is nothing to envy those made in a traditional way. “I understand that in the beginning, many people were skeptical about the project or might have had their doubts. But I would say that about 99% of those who approach it with some trepidation are enthusiastic once they try it,” Tartakovsky emphasized.
