Optimal Ultrafiltration uses for Beverage & Dairy Companies - Genesis Water Technologies

 

When you’re sipping on a cold soda or snacking on a creamy piece of cheese, you probably don’t really think about what went into making your food or beverage. Maybe, you already know because you saw a random episode of ‘How its Made’ on TV discussing ultrafiltration uses in the beverage industry while your were channel surfing on a lazy afternoon. Either way, aside from the automated production line machines, one of the most important things that goes into the making of any soda, juice, wheel of cheese, or gallon of milk is water. Producing beverages and dairy products use substantial amounts of water in their production processes.

Dairy product production facilities use water more for cleaning purposes than as an ingredient. Sanitation is heavily important when making consummables. Dairy products in particular can be quite susceptible to certain bacteria. Water is also used for cooling purposes and steam generation.

Beverages, being liquids, contain water to some degree. Therefore water, it is likely the most important ingredient in beverage production (not counting the obvious bottled water). Water is also used in large part, to wash out the bottles that the products will be packed and transported in. A majority of the wastewater produced by beverage companies comes from bottle washing.

In this article, I will talk about ultrafiltration uses for the treatment of dairy and beverage product wastewater streams. I will also mention its use to treat process water for both beverage and dairy products.
