    Today saw a further milestone in protecting the Werra waters achieved with the commissioning by K+S of the kainite crystallization and flotation facility (KCF) at the Hattorf site (Philippsthal, Hersfeld-Rotenburg district).
    The facility will enable additional reusable resources to be obtained from saline solutions that could not be used until now and will simultaneously reduce the wastewater volume at the Werra plant by 1.5 million cubic meters, or about 20 per cent, annually. With the related volume of capital expenditure at 180 million euros, the KCF facility is the largest individual water protection project to date.
    Dr. Burkhard Lohr, Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors said:

    “With our new KCF facility, we are creating a further important condition for the future viability of thousands of jobs in the Hesse-Thuringia potash district. The fact that we have invested almost half a billion euros in new facilities to reduce wastewater at the Werra site within a few years shows that we treat sustainable production seriously.”
