The Climate Change and Adaptation Plan developed by Braskem indicated water scarcity as the primary potential risk for the company's operations. The same plan complemented by specific high-risk basins studies (developed using DEVESE methodology), including Remédios River Basin, indicated the need to find new / alternative water sources to mitigate / neutralize the impacts of water scarcity as the main primary response to risk.

The Climate Change and Adaptation Plan developed by Braskem indicated water scarcity as the primary potential risk for the company's operations. The same plan complemented by specific high-risk basins studies (developed using DEVESE methodology), including Remédios River Basin, indicated the need to find new / alternative water sources to mitigate / neutralize the impacts of water scarcity as the main primary response to risk. The company is already in contact with the sanitation company responsible for the Remédios Basin (Alagoas) area to locate sewage treatment plants with reuse potential and groundwater alternatives near where Braskem operates.

Project Results

The company is already in contact with the sanitation company responsible for the Remédios Basin (Alagoas) area to locate sewage treatment plants with reuse potential and groundwater alternatives near where Braskem operates.
