Electric Vehicle Manufacturing Water System Design and Startup Consultation
Planning for paint area and water management at an Electric Vehicle site is critical to a smooth startup. Our team of global experts understands total paint booth management as well as air handling, oven, RTO and water management. Early consultation in designing air flows, water utilities and water reuse solutions can provide the best operational cost with optimized water and energy use while maximizing production throughput. Early consultation limits costly design changes or slowing timelines. Our team understands the connections of critical process operations and systems, allowing us to see opportunities for optimization before startup.

Automotive Pretreatment Solutions
Once Electric Vehicle paint shops reach full capacity, they can consume thousands of gallons of high purity water each day in pretreatment and ECoat operations. High purity water can be costly due to the close attention and labor the unit requires to maintain efficient and safe operations. Nalco Water can be your turnkey solution provider for all your full-sized and mobile RO and DI needs.

The electric vehicle (EV) battery market is surging as traditional automakers announce plans to go all-electric and new EV players continue to emerge.
Building new battery plants, though, is only half the battle. Battery manufacturing requires significant heating and cooling resources. Reliable utilities, specifically cooling and boiler systems, are essential for any EV battery producer to hit their productivity and profitability targets.
Design is the best stage in which to build in the features that support reliable, sustainable and easy-to-start-up utility systems. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure: Building with water efficiency in mind helps EV battery producers be good neighbors in the communities where they operate, and good stewards of their local watersheds. Doing this up front also helps prevent lengthy construction delays and costly retrofitting.
The Automotive experts at Nalco Water compiled the top 10 mistakes we see at new plant start-ups worldwide, including issues unique to EV battery plants. Our team offers design and planning recommendations as preventive measures, plus mitigation tips when necessary.
