GS 2016 Goede Praktijk Best Practice Belgium Water management
Uit de nationale oproep om mee te doen aan de Best Practice Belgische Competitie, hadden we 4 projecten geselecteerd om te laten beoordelen door onze ‘water’experten jury. Kasteelhoeve Wange werd door de jury verkozen als nationale winnaar en voorgedragen aan de internationale jury. Hieronder een kort overzicht van de 4 projecten: • Kasteelhoeve Wange – Integrated Watermanagement • Hotel Fevery – Rim Free toilets • Hotel Navarra – Goede Huisvader Praktijken • Hilton Brussels Grand Place – Reverse Osmosis for Dishwasser Water Expert Jury Compositie België Good Planet water expert: [email protected] (Director and Senior Consultant at Deep Blue Consultants) VMM (Flemish environmental administration) water quality expert : Steven van den Broeck [email protected] VMM operational expert: Adelheid Vanhille [email protected] VMM watercleaning expert: Ingeborg Barrez [email protected] Walloon environmental adminstration: Isabelle Delgoffe du Contrat de rivière Dyle-Gette (CRDG) (Wallonie) • • • • Guest house and meeting location 25 beds 4 meeting rooms located in the beautiful undulating Hageland and surrounded by hundreds of acres of orchards and fields: an almost hidden place in Flanders, on the borders of Limburg, Flemish Brabant and Wallonia. ‘Kasteelhoeve Wange is a site where lots of people meet. We want to be a pioneer in sustainable practices. Lots of people are inspired and filled with enthusiasm by our ideas on sustainability when they leave.’ Philip Van Kelst, manager Kasteelhoeve Wange. “Water & Energy & Awareness raising Integrated management” project All the ’dirty’ water that leaves the farm is cleaned in two underground water cleaning installations (60.000 liters). It’s an natural cleaning system, that works on bacteriological bases. After passing this water cleaning installation, all the water that leaves the farm is clean and drinkable. It enters the ’GETE’, a small river that passes the farm. All the people who stay, live and work at the Kasteelhoeve ( +/- 35 persons a day) do not impact anymore the quality of the water in a negative, polluting way. Natural swimming pond with water captured from the roof of the farm(600 m²). The water in the swimming pond is partly cleaned by special plants in the pond In March 2016 a system will be installed to clean this water to use it for the toilets, garden and animals Japanese irises are used to clean the water. In 2017 another another roof (600 m²) will be connected to the swimming pond. At that moment the water supply for toilets will be covered for 90 %. Water is heated by the use of woodchips Within 5 years the wood chips will be produced by ourselves on a place nearby.The wood we have planted will take out the amount of CO2 that we still produce, of the air. At that moment we will be 100% CO² neutral . The electricity needed for the pumps (heating sanitary water, pumping up the water for the toilets...) is produced by solar panels. The solar system provides 80 % of the electricity needs of the farm. All pumps are low energy pumps (50% less energy use than standard pumps). Companies and tourists choose the Kasteelhoeve for its sustainability. It has a massive impact on our marketing. After 4 years the Kasteelhoeve is constantly fully booked. It is impossible to calculate the financial return at this level.’ ‘ Philip Van Kelst, manager Kasteelhoeve Wange. Contactgegevens • Adres: Collaert Mansionstraat 3, Brugge • Paul Asselman - [email protected] Project - Rim-Free Toilets • Toiletpotten dienden vervangen te worden • Advies ingewonnen over betere systemen • Rand-vrije toiletten (rim - free) • In alle gastenkamers geïnstalleerd • Informatie aan gasten via Facebook & Website Concept / voordelen: • Slimme waterverdeler • Geen (minder) plaats voor bacteriën • Verbruikt minder water: tijdens de schoonmaak, door de betere waterverdeling • Ander voordeel: vermindering van poetsuren Slimme waterverdeling: rondom & dun verspreid, daardoor grotere kracht en beter wegspoeleffect • • • • • 4-star hotel 224 rooms and suites 17 meeting rooms Restaurant, bar and fitness center Prime location right at the heart of the Brussels’ historic city center, near the Grand Place Reverse osmosis A reverse osmosis unit has been set up to supply the dishwashing machine. This system improves the quality of the water in the machines by reducing its hardness. This prevents the staff to polish the cutlery and glasses before setting the tables for the guests. This enhancement impacts the entire catering service. Benefits of the good practice: This practice offers a quicker and better result while washing the cutlery. It also reduces the use of chemical products, enables an energy saving in water heating and prevents damaging the heating resistor.
