Efficient Wastewater Treatment.

COD/BOD removal of soft drink manufacturing effluent in the Carribean.

Project:
San Miguel, Haiti, Carribean.

Industry:
Food & Beverage.

Facts & figures:

  • Q = 280 m3/day
  • 60 m3 Mutag BioChipTM
  • BODin = 1600 mg/l and BODout = 8 mg/l
  • CODin = 3,358 mg/l and CODout = 18 mg/l
  • In operation since 2021

 

Task:
The task was to reach the target effluent limits for COD/BOD in a newly built soft drink manufacturing ETP.

Solution:
4 x MBBR tanks were equipped with Mutag BioChip™ carrier. The tanks are connected in series, allowing for high-load and low-load treatment conditions. The Mutag technology has been integrated by our good partner, Spena Group, from Peru.

Results:
The plant has been in operation since 2021 and the achieved outlet water quality is even below the permits of BOD = 25 mg/l and COD = 80 mg/l.
