Turning HVAC waste water into
cleaning solutions.

HygenLoop captures cooling tower blowdown water, treats it, and converts
it into controlled cleaning and disinfectant solutions for commercial buildings.

THE OPPORTUNITY

An untapped water resource.

Water-cooled HVAC systems routinely discharge "blowdown water" as waste to maintain efficiency. HygenLoop integrates with existing waste pipes to transform this clean, mineral-rich stream into a managed cleaning resource without interrupting your HVAC system or requiring plant shutdown.

The 5-step recovery process.

  • Blowdown Diversion

    Water is diverted from the HVAC discharge pipe before entering the building drainage system.

  • Water Conditioning

    Recovered water undergoes cooling, filtration, and mineral stabilisation to prepare it for safe operational use.

  • Building Distribution

    Conditioned water is routed through riser infrastructure directly to cleaning cupboards and service areas.

  • System Integration

    The supply connects to HygenLoop for controlled dosing or ozone-based disinfectant generation.

  • Controlled Dispensing

    Cleaning teams access regulated volumes of solution, ensuring consistent dilution and reduced overuse.

Estimated blowdown recovery potential.

Water-cooled HVAC systems discharge substantial volumes of blowdown water during normal operation.

HygenLoop captures and conditions this water, converting it into reusable cleaning solutions that reduce water waste while supporting healthier buildings.

This table shows typical cooling capacities and the volumes of blowdown water that may be available for recovery. In many buildings, this supply alone can meet all daily cleaning water requirements.

BY THE NUMBERS

The ESG advantage.

HygenLoop introduces a practical method for improving water efficiency by combining water recovery, controlled dispensing, and cleaning optimisation.
40%

Reduction in Water Use

Modelling suggests the system could reduce cleaning-related water consumption by up to 40% per building by repurposing water that would otherwise be discharged.
20,000

Litres Saved Per Site

A typical supermarket or retail site is estimated to save up to 20,000 litres of water annually through this integrated recovery approach.
100M

Potential Scaled Impact

Deploying this infrastructure across 5,000 buildings could save 100 million litres annually, significantly reducing the environmental footprint of commercial property operations.
