Treatment systems for brewery wastewater with elevated BOD from brewing, fermentation, and cleaning operations.
Compact craft brewery wastewater treatment and microbrewery effluent solutions.
Scaleable wastewater treatment for craft breweries, microbreweries and commercial production facilities.
Navigate global brewery wastewater standards. Country-specific discharge limits, equipment certifications and compliance.
Adaptive treatment systems for breweries with seasonal or batch production.
Brewery wastewater BOD ranges from 1,000-5,000 mg/L depending on production processes. Spent grain, yeast, and beer residues create high organic loading that requires specialised treatment.
Residual grain from mashing contains high organic content and suspended solids.
Spent yeast and trub from fermentation contribute significant BOD and solids.
Spills, tank bottoms, and filter backwash contain concentrated beer with high BOD.
Brewing cycles create significant variations in flow and organic loading.
Our brewery wastewater treatment systems combine solids separation, flow equalization, and advanced biological treatment to handle high BOD loading efficiently.
Rotary drum screens and static screens remove spent grain and coarse solids before advanced biological treatment.
Balancing tanks smooth out variations from brewing cycles, providing consistent loading to treatment.
Extended aeration MBBR systems handle high BOD brewery wastewater with excellent efficiency.
Remove spent grain and coarse solids to protect downstream equipment.
Balancing tank normalizes flow and loading variations from brewing cycles.
Neutralise acidic or alkaline wastewater to optimal range for advanced biological treatment.
Flotation removes yeast, fine solids, and remaining suspended organics.
Extended aeration MBBR degrades dissolved organics and reduces BOD by 95%+.
Lamella clarifier separates biological sludge for recycling or disposal.
Sludge Volume Reduction
Solutions for Brewery & Beverage Wastewater
Remove yeast, suspended solids, and organic matter with micro-bubble flotation technology. Achieves >90% solids removal with automated chemical dosing.
Continuous screening of spent grains and hop debris with minimal maintenance. Gentle handling preserves grain structure for animal feed recovery.
