Water plays a critical role in the dairy industry, supporting various processes and operations. Key areas of water use include ingredient mixing, pasteurization, homogenization, cleaning, sanitization, and cooling.
Managing effluents in the dairy industry presents unique challenges:
- High Levels of Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG): Dairy effluents contain high FOG, which can cause blockages and interfere with treatment processes.
- High Organic Loads: Dairy effluents are rich in organic matter, resulting in high BOD and COD, which can strain treatment systems.
- Presence of Sanitizers and Cleaning Agents: The use of these chemicals can introduce contaminants into wastewater.
We provide customized wastewater treatment solutions specifically designed for the dairy industry, utilizing advanced technologies:
- Pretreatment (DAF & TPI): Removal of FOG and TSS to prepare wastewater for further treatment.
- Anaerobic and Biological Treatment: Efficient degradation of high organic loads.
- Membrane Filtration: Advanced techniques for water recycling and reuse, improving recovery and reducing waste.
- Sludge Handling Systems: Effective management and disposal of sludge to ensure compliance and operational efficiency.
- Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) Systems: Using MEE/MVRE and ATFD to achieve zero liquid discharge.
Our innovative solutions help the dairy industry minimize its environmental impact while optimizing CAPEX and OPEX, enhancing operational performance.
