Food and Beverage Requirements

Wastewater:  Food and beverage processors use and hence generate high volumes of wastewater.  Major pollutants include biological oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS),  and fats oils and greases (FOG).  Wastewater systems at food and beverage manufacturing facilities are faced with changes in influent conditions caused by CIP procedures and changing production mixes.  Most companies with connections to public treatment plants are faced with statutory limits on FOG, and surcharge fees on BOD and TSS.  Plants that direct discharge or are connected to public utilities with limited capacity are required to address secondary treatment processes.

Water Treatment:  Large volumes of water are used as part of the food or beverage product, for cleaning,  for boilers, and for cooling.   In addition water is a transport medium for food products such as vegetables.  Depending on the source (for example from the city water supply,  a site well, or surface water) and the use of the water,  a different treatment strategy may be required.  If water reuse can be achieved, or maximized, costs are kept lower and less wastewater is generated.  Food industry standards are specific in the quality of it's process water depending on the use.  

Salt Creek Technologies can help guide you through these decision trees helping you find the best strategy technically and economically for your company or client.
