Meat & Poultry

Case Study: B&E Foods

B&E Foods contacted Aerofloat to find a solution to its wastewater challenges and meet Sydney Water’s stringent trade waste requirements.

Managing the high loads of fats, oils and grease (FOG), suspended solids (SS), and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) from meat and poultry processing wastewater can be challenging.

The manufacturing process and ensuing effluent quality will determine the level of wastewater treatment required in order to meet the local authority’s standards. Prior to proposing a solution to the client, Aerofloat’s engineers analyse the constituents of the current wastewater comparative to local discharge requirements.

The high FOG and SS loads in meat processing wastewater can have detrimental effects on local municipal treatment plants and the connecting pipelines. The wastewater may also be high in BOD and COD levels for some meat processing products, requiring a different level of treatment.

Aerofloat’s engineers are proficient in sophisticated 3D modelling, so any proposed design is clearly presented and understood prior to project commencement. The design models are also invaluable for new building projects where evidence of a wastewater treatment plan is required to gain development approval.

Problems we solve

Aerofloat has a range of products available to design a fit-for-purpose wastewater treatment plant applicable to the meat & poultry processing industries. For example, dissolved air flotation (DAF) products have been implemented successfully to remove high levels of FOG and SS in meat processing effluent, and Aerofloat’s biological treatment systems are superior to other market options at removing BOD and COD.

Boning specialists B&E Foods is a respected wholesaler of quality poultry, seafood, beef, smallgoods. B&E Foods had a wastewater high in suspended solids (SS), and fats, oils and grease (FOG) from its processing facility.

Aerofloat installed its patented dissolved air flotation (AeroDAF 200) unit with upfront screening, hydraulic balancing, pH correction and a flowmeter to solve B&E Foods’ wastewater issues and ensure compliance with Sydney Water’s regulations.

Proud customers of Aerofloat

SCS contracted Aerofloat to design and supply a wastewater treatment solution.

SCS was receiving pressure from the regulatory body to improve the quality of its wastewater being discharged to sewer.

When Cordina Farms was building a green field site back in 2014, it turned to Aerofloat for its compact and affordable wastewater treatment solution.

AeroDAF 100 still going strong after years in operation.

Italia Smallgoods’, Sydney manufacturing facility needed a compact wastewater treatment solution to meet Sydney Water’s standards.

The compact AeroDAF 100 was installed with additional equipment to achieve the desired results.
