Water and Wastewater Solutions For The Food and Beverage Industry

  1. Innovation In Water Remediation: Specialized Electrocoagulation For Water Hardness Removal 5/10/2022

    Hardness in water can be characterized into its primary constituent mineral components, typically calcium and magnesium. Excess water hardness in a water supply creates many issues for industry, utilities, and life in general.

  2. The Advantages Of Automating Wastewater Treatment 10/1/2016

    Wastewater treatment operations are beginning to embrace the power of automation. How can it help? And how is it implemented?

  3. 8 Reasons To Revisit Quats For Cooling-Water Algae Control 7/29/2021

    The need for cooling-water systems is common among industrial applications, but the treatments needed to keep them operating at peak efficiency can change from location to location and season to season. Here is why a different type of quaternary ammonium compound (quat) algaecide has an important role to play in balancing performance, efficiency, and total lifecycle costs across many cooling-water-treatment regimens.

  4. AquaSBR Sequencing Batch Reactor: Food And Beverage Industry 12/6/2023

    This application note explores Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) systems that have been installed worldwide in a variety of applications, ranging from a few gallons per minute (GPM) to thousands of GPM.

  5. Dairy Collective Reaps Green Energy And Environmental Benefits With Anaerobic Wastewater Technology 9/16/2014

    One of the United States’ newest dairy processing plants features advanced wastewater treatment technology that not only radically improves biomass recovery and effluent quality, but also harnesses green energy from waste streams to drive production processes and reduce its carbon footprint.

  6. 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.

  7. The Rotostrainer Joins The Craft Beer Revolution 8/20/2018

    Spent hops and general brewery wastewater are natural by-products of the beer-making process and must be reused or disposed of accordingly. Some brewers are charged substantial fines for dumping high-solids wastewater into the city sewer system. With Parkson Rotostrainers, over 90% of the Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) of wastewater can be filtered out, greatly reducing the city sewer charges. Many breweries can even sell much of the spent grain and other captured solids to local farms as livestock feed, thereby profiting on an otherwise ‘waste’ product.

  8. Sustainably-Driven Innovation Is Increasing Performance In Wastewater Treatment Among Leading Food-And-Beverage Companies 6/10/2024

    In this article, read about the emergence of business sustainability and sustainably-driven innovation as a force for change within wastewater treatment and the associated compliance functions of the food and beverage industry.

  9. Microbiologist Develops Improved Technology For Poultry Food Safety 11/20/2020

    One Friday evening in the spring of 2019, Abhi Upadhyay, assistant professor of food microbiology and safety in the Department of Animal Science, found himself watching a video showing microbubbles for pet care and grooming. He started thinking about using this technology for food safety and spent the weekend researching its potential, current state of the field and appropriate grant opportunities.

  10. Beware Of Problematic Wastewater Aeration Additives 8/19/2019

    Too much of a good thing can create new problems as quickly as it resolves old ones. Maintaining a proper balance of antifoaming agents and polymer additives is critical for sustaining the appropriate air bubble size and distribution needed to achieve dissolved oxygen (DO) requirements for neutralizing high biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) in many industrial and food processing wastewater applications.
