Advancing Dairy Wastewater Treatment

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.

Use Of Pure Oxygen To Resolve Capacity And Odor Problems

The Escalon Industrial Waste Water Treatment Facility’s service area is seasonal and centered on tomato and pickle processing. The production season (roughly mid-July through mid-October) sees high hydraulic- and BOD loads that strain the facility’s capacity. During the high season highly variable BOD load depletes DO and causes permit violations and odor complaints. Praxair installed 4 X 15 HP Medium Velocity Oxygenation (MVO™ oxygenation system), with the ability to deliver up to 6 TPD of oxygen to supplement the existing aeration capacity at the facility.
