MBR – Meat Processing Industry

Many abattoirs, meat processors and butcheries produce wastewater with high levels of fats, solids, BOD and COD. The high cost of disposal of such effluent has driven the meat processing industry to seek more economical on-site wastewater treatment.

Coupled to the pressure to increase capacity without generating a larger treatment footprint, the Jacopa high performance MBR is the cost-effective solution, the small footprint reduces building costs and the low maintenance plant often replaces existing conventional sedimentation and tertiary filtration systems.

The Jacopa MBR economically delivers high quality treated effluent to meet and often exceed discharge standards with opportunities for water re-use for applications such as wash down of animal sheds and vehicles.
