Managing acidic and alkaline wastewater from cleaning-in-place (CIP) operations and brewing processes.
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 pH ranges from 3-4 (fermentation, acid CIP) to 11-13 (caustic CIP). These extremes must be neutralised before advanced biological treatment to protect microbial populations.
Nitric and phosphoric acid cleaning cycles generate wastewater with pH as low as 2-3.
Sodium hydroxide cleaning cycles produce wastewater with pH up to 12-13.
Spent yeast and beer residues contribute acidity with pH typically 3-5.
Extreme pH can kill beneficial bacteria in advanced biological treatment systems.
Automated pH adjustment systems with acid and caustic dosing neutralise brewery wastewater to the optimal pH range for advanced biological treatment. Flow equalization helps manage pH fluctuations.
Balancing tanks blend acidic and alkaline streams, reducing pH variation before neutralisation.
pH control systems automatically dose acid or caustic to maintain optimal pH for treatment.
Advanced control systems provide remote monitoring, data logging, and automated reporting.
CIP and process wastewater is collected from various brewery operations.
Balancing tank blends acidic and alkaline streams to reduce pH variation.
Online pH probes continuously monitor wastewater pH in real-time.
Acid or caustic is automatically dosed to achieve target pH range.
Static or mechanical mixers ensure thorough chemical dispersion.
Final pH monitoring confirms neutralisation before advanced biological treatment.
Online pH monitoring with automated dosing control ensures consistent neutralisation. Alarms alert operators to out-of-specification conditions, protecting downstream treatment processes.
