From inside his cab 150 feet above the
Hillsboro, Oregon, job site, crane operator Darren Starks looks
down on Intel’s under-construction water recycling plant. Starks
can hoist skyward up to 40 tons at a time, and on a busy day is
responsible for about 80 lifts of construction equipment, piping
and other gear. When the recycling plant is completed, it will help
Intel cut its manufacturing water use. Intel has set a goal to
return 100 percent of its water to communities and watersheds for
local use by 2025. (Credit: Walden Kirsch/Intel Corporation)
Intel is reducing the water it uses in computer chip
manufacturing. It also has set a 2025 worldwide goal to return 100
percent of its water to communities and watersheds for local use.
Over the past 20 years, Intel has conserved about 60 billion
gallons of water.
When the three-year Hillsboro project is complete, the facility
will be able to recycle about 1 billion gallons of water every year
– the equivalent of 90,000 Olympic-size swimming pools. The plant
will be Intel’s biggest water recycling facility in the world.
