Jet-Mixed Anaerobic Processes For Large Tanks
5/17/2022
Resource recovery projects offer a beneficial way to extract value from organic waste streams. In the process, this waste is diverted from landfills, effectively reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. When sent to landfills, organic materials decompose and convert to carbon dioxide and methane, the latter of which is a short-lived climate pollutant that, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), is roughly 25 times as potent as carbon dioxide at trapping heat in the atmosphere. Capturing methane prevents it from contributing to a warming planet.

Nitrogen Removal At A Very Large Scale
5/17/2022
Nitrogen removal standards are a pressing concern for meat and poultry processing plants. Historically, food processing plants discharging to public waterways or directly to publicly owned wastewater treatment plants have faced challenges in meeting effluent limitation guidelines (ELGs) for nutrient removal. That may soon become even tougher yet with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announcing in September 2021 that it has completed a detailed study of the meat and poultry products category and will initiate new rulemaking to revise the existing discharge standards for the industry.
