The Problem

This plant was experiencing high concentrations of BOD and TSS in the wastewater generated during their milk and dairy packaging processes.

The Solution

bioprocessH2O supplied a turnkey installed bioFAS™ Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) biological treatment process to reduce the BOD and TSS concentrations using a single stage bioFAS™ MBBR bioreactor and DAF unit

The Results

The bioFAS™ MBBR System effectively removes the BOD and TSS allowing the dairy facility to be compliant with the permitted discharge requirements. The modular bioFAS™ MBBR System is also sized and designed for future expansion.
