ACTUAL SITUATION OF WASTEWATER FROM FOOD INDUSTRY AND A CASE STUDY OF THEIR TREATMENT

Wastewater is the combination of liquid and water-transported wastes from industrial facilities, along with any groundwater infiltration and surface water and storm water inflow that may enter the sewer system or discharged directly to the streams and rivers, contaminating them and so cause environmental problems that further need to be solved. In the food industries during material processing it is required large quantities of potable water, and nearly all of this is discharged as risky contaminated with strength organic compounds, nutrient (nitrogen and phosphorus), fat and other microbial contaminated effluent. From the results of the paper it is evident the preparation of a national guidance manual with a menu of water management measures and practices from which to choose for various sources and categories of organic wastes, and that is why we have tried to apply also possible models and following with simulation procedure towards the use of waste characteristics to establish and design a proper process diagram for their treatment and energy profit through their proper handling.
