Challenges of Slaughterhouse Challenges of Slaughterhouse WastewaterWastewater
Wastewater contains large amounts Wastewater contains large amounts of blood, fat, and hairof blood, fat, and hair
Wastewater is above municipal Wastewater is above municipal standards which leaves two options; standards which leaves two options; on site treatment or pay to be on site treatment or pay to be treated elsewheretreated elsewhere
On site treatment with low capital On site treatment with low capital and maintenance costs is desirableand maintenance costs is desirable
Wastewater ParametersWastewater Parameters BOD approx. 1,000 to 4,000 mg/LBOD approx. 1,000 to 4,000 mg/L COD approx. 2,000 to 10,000 mg/LCOD approx. 2,000 to 10,000 mg/L SS approx. 200 to 1,500 mg/LSS approx. 200 to 1,500 mg/L High Oil and Grease contentHigh Oil and Grease content Possible high chloride content from Possible high chloride content from

Main goal should be to prevent product Main goal should be to prevent product from entering the waste stream and using from entering the waste stream and using the least amount of water possiblethe least amount of water possible
Reduce the amount of water used, saves Reduce the amount of water used, saves money in two waysmoney in two ways
