As a business that works closely with natural resources, AIA Engineering Ltd. /Vega Industries, follows the golden rules of conservation - Reduce, Reuse and Recycle, strictly. Our goal is to achieve maximum efficiency by lowering our dependencies on fossil fuels and embracing circular economy.
AIA Engineering Ltd./ Vega Industries is committed to minimizing the adverse impact of its activities and operations on the environment.
AIA Engineering Ltd. / Vega Industries understands that the efficiency of the processes carried out by the company is key when it comes to sustainability.
AIA Engineering Ltd. / Vega Industries believes that energy reduction plays a critical role in establishing sustainable practices.
AIA Engineering Ltd. / Vega Industries has developed a long-term strategy to address emissions by investing in a systemic increase in the percentage of renewable energy out of the total energy consumed by the company.
AIA has installed 11 Wind Energy Turbines at the Kutch and Jamjodhpur sites which has installed capacity 24.3 MW of renewable energy.
In addition, AIA has added two Hybrid Projects (4.2 MW Windmill + 3.78 MWp Solar) at Village Dedan, Gujarat. As of July 2023, AIA Engineering has undertaken clean energy initiatives, generating 31.8 MW wind energy and 5.58 MW solar energy, taking total renewable energy capacity to 37.38 MW.
AIA Engineering Ltd./ Vega Industries takes all necessary measures to check and prevent pollution.
All stacks are adequate in height and critical stacks are linked to an online stack monitoring system. AIA Engineering Ltd. / Vega Industries contracts third-party agencies and experts to monitor air quality as per the ambient air quality standards stipulated by the State Pollution Control Board.
Additionally, AIA Engineering Ltd. / Vega Industries has an internal process to ensure emission-free production. The Dust Extraction (DE) system or Fume Extraction (FE) system is linked to the production equipment functioning, and failure in any of these will trigger an alarm which automatically shuts down production.
At AIA Engineering Ltd. / Vega Industries, water is utilized for industrial purposes such as cooling the furnace coils, in the moulding process, and in the cooling towers. Other activities where water is used includes in canteens for drinking, sanitation, and gardening. We have a robust system for water management:
AIA Engineering Ltd. /Vega Industries conducts trainings on water management conservation amongst all employees from time to time. In addition, an annual water audit is conducted at all of our plant location. Audit observation and recommendation are implemented without bias and on a priority basis.
We monitor and analyse the water consumption patterns to ensure an overall water balance and to capture spikes in water consumption, if any. Water meters are installed at points of withdrawal to maintain ground water balance.
AIA Engineering Ltd. / Vega Industries have installed a rainwater harvesting system to recharge groundwater. Rooftop and run off rainwater are recharged through recharge wells along with the presence of a pre-filtration system
AIA Engineering Ltd. / Vega Industries ensures Complete Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) is maintained. Dry-type cooling tower is installed which reduces blow down drastically. The cooling tower blow-down is then further reused in the plant. Similarly, grey water or sewage is treated in the STP plant, which comprise of a three-tier system and an ultra-filtration water purification system. Treated water is reused in the plant.
In order to move to a sustainable model of waste management, AIA Engineering Ltd. / Vega Industries is transitioning from a ‘linear business model’ to a cradle-to-cradle ‘circular business model’.
