Struggling with high BOD and COD in your food & beverage wastewater? Read our latest blog on this !!!
Wastewater in the food and beverage industry often contains high pollutant levels from production, cleaning, and ingredients. This results in elevated BOD and COD, posing regulatory challenges, reducing sustainability, and increasing environmental risks.
The solution? Effective treatment using advanced membranes can cut these levels dramatically, helping you stay compliant, reduce costs, and boost sustainability.
Our approach:
- Primary removal: Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) removes oil, fats, and solids early.
- Biological scavengers: Systems like MBR (Membrane Bioreactor) or MBBR, that treats effluent with variable loads.
- Advanced polishing: Chemical treatment or advanced oxidation for complex compounds.
GreenPebble Tech's real world case studies:
- A dairy plant used DAF + MBBR to reduce BOD/TSS by over 90%.
- A slaughterhouse added pre-DAF oxygenation and fouling-resistant MBR to reduce COD by 85%, improving productivity and sustainability.
Proactive treatment turns a challenge into an advantage: excellent quality treated water, better compliance, and a cost-effective solution.
We've just published a full guide on our site with practical steps, challenges, and more case insights. Check it out here: https://www.greenpebbletech.com/post/how-to-reduce-bod-and-cod-in-food-and-beverage-wastewater
