01The project
Customer Type: Dairy whey production
Wastewater: Whey/milk solids water
Equipment: DAF-85
A large whey producer contracted Pan America Environmental, Inc. to design and provide a whey production water treatment and conditioning solution for one of its dairy processing facilities. The facility produces a variety of whey based products and produces about 125 GPM of wastewater & CIP water.
PAE began the process with on site jar testing to determine proper chemistry, dose, sludge generation and process requirements. Once the process and chemistry were determined the treatment system was designed and fabricated and installed.
Equipment:
- DAF-85-SS
- RSS-1245
- CRT-CpF ChemClear CT system
- Float & sludge pumpouts
- PLC/HMI controls
Following installation of the system PAE assisted with a successful startup and training.
02Equipment supplied
