OVERVIEW

Pet Food Process Water Treatment

Pet food processing plants often blend large amounts of solids to create pet food which leads to large amounts of total suspended solids (TSS) and fats, oils, and grease (FOG). These variables change per food mix made due to the fluctuation of ingredients used. The different amounts of proteins, grain, and organics used in this process produce a very complex and large amount of solids that need to be separated from the wastewater. This wastewater must be screened to reduce the TSS, BOD, and FOG for the water to be released to local municipal treatment plants. The correct solution is essential for pet food processing plants to continue to operate successfully and efficiently.

Blending proteins, grain, and other organics require water to craft the best pet food.

Pet Food Wastewater Treatment Products

Roto-Sieve Drum Screens are a very effective and economical method to remove waste from pet food processing water. Screening out organic and fibrous matter from the wastewater can drastically reduce the TSS and BOD levels in the effluent system and enhance the downstream wastewater treatment processing. Additionally, the Roto-Sieve can many times be used effectively in the production of the pet food itself.

Our Roto-Sieve Drum Screens are designed and customized per application to effectively target what needs to be screened out of the wastewater and ensure a high capture rate. Roto-Sieve Drum screens use a perforated plate drum to optimize and effectively remove solids from wastewater. High TSS and BOD are effectively reduced which enhances and improves downstream treatment processes.

These screenings can be further dewatered and compacted using the Shaftless Screw Press. The press catches the screenings straight from the Roto-Sieve and compacts, dewaters, and transports the screenings.

If transportation is the only concern for the screenings, the use of our Shaftless Screw Conveyor fits the job. The conveyor optimally transports screenings or product to any desired location.

Lastly, our Sludge Heat Exchangers can provide cutting-edge energy recovery and sludge heating when used in processes for digesting pet food processing wastes.
