High Wastewater Treatment Efficiency &
Small Overall Footprint
The Challenge:
- Eliminate High WW Hauling Costs.
- Small System Footprint.
- Low Capital Investment Cost, with Short Payback Period.
EMG was retained by a leading bakery to address the following challenges for the Facility:
- Design, fabricate, install, and start-up a resilient wastewater treatment system to handle high-strength process wastewater.
- Eliminate the need for costly, environmentally burdensome, and logistically difficult shipping of wastewater from the plant.
- Install the system with a total footprint of under 2,000 ft2.
- Install system with low capital investment cost, low O&M costs, high reliability, short payback period, & process scalability.
EMG's Solution:
Highly Automated PurEffluent® System. SCADA System Remote Access, Monitoring & Control. Biogas Collection.
EMG installed its proprietary, advanced PurEffluent® treatment technology which included:
- Solids screening and wastewater equalization tanks.
- Highly automated PurEffluent® system.
- A biogas collection, metering, and flare system.
- A polishing unit for further BOD5 and TSS reduction.
- A Supervisory Control & Data Acquisition (SCADA) unit with remote access to monitor & control the treatment system.
Project Highlights
The Results:
- Regulatory Compliance,
- Enhanced the Company's Standing within the Local Community,
- Production of Clean Renewable Energy,
- Future Expansion.
Some of the benefits of this project for the client include:
- Reducing wastewater organic concentration (BOD5) by 99% on average.
- Eliminating the cost for wastewater hauling.
- Allowing wastewater to be discharged to the local sewer system while maintaining regulatory compliance.
- Maintaining low labor and O&M costs for the treatment system.
- Allowing the plant to increase production without the increased burden from of wastewater generation.
- Generating biogas as an onsite renewable energy source.
- Enhancing the standing within the local community as an environmentally sustainable responsible business.
This project serves as a great example
of the benefits EMG’s PurEffluent® Technology offers the food and beverage industry through its energy efficient design, reliable wastewater treatment process, generation of a renewable source of energy, and promotion of sustainable manufacturing
