The agri-food sector requires large quantities of water for crop irrigation and food production. Water treatment in this field helps reduce waste, improve quality, and ensure food safety. Filtration, purification, and water reuse systems are implemented to optimize usage and minimize environmental impact.
Problematic of Wastewater in Wineries
The discharge of Wastewater treatment originating from wineries, it is characterized by a high level of contamination that can cause serious environmental problems if discharged without proper treatment.
The main characteristics are:
High organic load
Large amount of organic matter from grape and wine residues.
High variability in flow rate and pollutant load
Especially between the harvest period and the rest of the year.
Daily variability of flow rates and loads
Due to washing processes, decanting, ion exchange resins, etc.
pH variations
Wastewater with strong pH variations, Outside the suitable discharge ranges (acidic pH from the wine and basic pH from the washings).
Other elements
Presence of other contaminant elements such as sulfites
ECOHIDRO OFRECE SOLUCIONES
Versatile systems
Adaptable to each client's needs and to the discharges that occur throughout the different stages of the year and day.
Adaptable solutions with tanks or compact systems integrated into civil works.
Biological treatment of activated sludge by prolonged aeration
Biological treatment of activated sludge by prolonged aeration with tertiary treatment
MBR activated sludge biological treatments
With these treatments, wastewater can:
Discharged into the municipal sewer system.
Discharged into public hydraulic domain.
Reused for irrigation.
Reused for street cleaning.
Reused for process water.
