MRPL Bags Global Water Management Company Award: Click to Know

Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals Ltd. (MRPL) has bagged the Energy and Environment Foundation (EEF) Global Water Management Company of the Year 2023 Award. This award is being given to every industrial sector to recognise organisations taking responsibility to contribute towards conservation and protection of natural resources. MRPL has been chosen for the award for its innovative practices and approach towards water management.

The water conservation efforts undertaken by the refinery during the summer months of April to June 2023 to reduce its fresh water dependence not only helped company’s sustainability, but also benefited Mangaluru residents. MRPL reduced its dependence on fresh water by utilising treated city sewage, desalinated water and internally recycled effluent for its operations.

Union Minister of State for Housing and Urban Affairs Kaushal Kishore presented the award to MRPL General Manager (Operations) Venkatesh M. Nayak and Engineer Arpit Gaur at New Delhi on August 25.
