Summary
As food and beverage processors face increasing pressure to meet tightening discharge regulations and sustainability goals, finding effective and economical wastewater treatment solutions has never been more critical. While many facilities utilize membrane bioreactors (MBRs) or dissolved air flotation (DAF) systems, these methods alone often leave behind high levels of organic contaminants including fats, oils, and grease (FOG) as well as chemical and biological oxygen demand (COD, BOD), making regulatory compliance and water reuse challenging.
Join us for an insightful webinar where we’ll explore how leading food and beverage companies are tackling these wastewater treatment challenges with advanced membrane technology. We'll discuss the current treatment landscape, common pain points, and innovative solutions that improve efficiency while reducing operational costs.
ZwitterCo’s breakthrough reverse osmosis (RO) membranes offer unparalleled resistance to organic fouling, significantly extending membrane life, reducing cleaning frequency, and enabling cost-effective water reuse. In this session, we’ll showcase real-world success stories from leading food and beverage processors around the world demonstrating how ZwitterCo’s technology is redefining wastewater treatment performance.
Key topics will include:
- Tackling regulatory pressures and sustainability initiatives with innovative solutions
- MBR effluent and organic fouling challenges in wastewater treatment and reuse today
- How ZwitterCo’s advanced RO membranes deliver unique fouling resistance and lower operating costs
- Real-world applications and success stories from the food and beverage industry
