Water and Wastewater Solutions For The Food and Beverage Industry

  1. Helping Breweries Cut Natural Gas Costs And Waste Gas Emissions 4/13/2022

    No matter whether consumers choose a pilsner, an ale, or another popular type of beer, there is a critical focus at nearly all breweries today on their production process energy (natural gas) costs and plant environmental compliance (waste gas emissions). Failing to pay attention to the efficiency of these processes at breweries or any other type of food and beverage processing plant can lead to cost competitiveness issues and hefty regulatory fines.

  2. Aeration System Eliminates Odors From Winery Wastewater Lagoons 5/1/2017

    A California winery was having odor problems from its wastewater evaporation lagoons. The wash and wastewater from this facility contain large amounts of organic matter. The wastewater is collected and pumped to two main lagoons for evaporation, percolation, and sprinkler irrigation.

  3. Versatility Of Sequencing Batch Reactors In The Dairy Industry Result In Lowering Costs And Increasing Efficiency 12/6/2023

    Read about a technology that dairy plants can take advantage of to optimize the treatment of their wastewater and assure consistent compliance to effluent discharge permits.

  4. Translating Aeration Efficiency Into Dollars 5/14/2019

    The hardest aspects of comparing efficiencies among submerged aeration technologies are the many variables in capital expense (CAPEX), operating expense (OPEX), and complexity of wastewater makeup. Here are five major categories for evaluating industrial wastewater aeration efficiency.

  5. Foods - Biochemical Oxygen Demand And Chemical Oxygen Demand 1/25/2016

    A food manufacturer in Washington state had a source of well water contaminated with vegetable and fish oils. A five gallon sample was was sent to Kaselco for testing via our electrocoagulation process.

  6. Advancing Dairy Wastewater Treatment 2/26/2024

    To help you select the best wastewater treatment strategy for your dairy processing application, this white paper provides a helpful overview of some of the challenges you will encounter including biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), nitrogen and phosphorus removal.

  7. Repair Of Major Damage To High Density Polyethylene Wastewater Pipeline 8/13/2018

    Leprino Foods, the world's largest mozzarella cheese producer, operates two plants that share one wastewater pipeline – a 16” SDR11 High Density Polyethylene Pipeline (operating at approximately 160 PSI). During dirt work an “auger” hit the wastewater pipeline and drilled an 8” diameter hole in the line. Leprino needed immediate access to a repair fitting for this line.

  8. Disinfection Of Borewell Water For A World- Leading Beverage Company Bottler 4/16/2024

    A beverage company in Punjab, India solved their water contamination issue by implementing Atlantium's HOD UV technology, achieving effective disinfection and desired ozone levels.

  9. Are You On The Hook For U.S. EPA Effluent Limitations Guidelines? 5/28/2020

    While wastewater effluent standards mandated by the U.S. EPA and individual states eventually come down to a number, it pays to understand how those standards are established and the challenges of meeting them in real-world applications. Here is a look at the multiple pieces of that puzzle, including their wastewater treatment implications for industrial-scale meat and poultry processing operations.

  10. Treating Food Wastewater Efficiently Using Jet Aeration 9/14/2020

    Food processing is a water-intensive process, and its wastewater byproduct is typically high in volumetric daily flow and also biochemical and chemical oxygen demand (BOD and COD), organics, and nutrients. Consequently, significant on-site treatment and resources are necessary.
