Industrial Wastewater Treatment Success Stories
Cooked Potato Producer - COD, TSS & Nitrogen Reduction
A large producer of pre-cooked
potatoes was having a problem
disposing of the wastewater from the
washing and cooking process. The
water was to be used on the growing
field, but had a COD, TSS and
nitrogen content in excess of
allowable limits, see chart below.
The water was at a pH of 6.5, so no pH adjustment was necessary. The stream was treated with Floccin™ 1105 at a dosage rate of 400 lbs per 1M gallons with the resulting reductions. COD was reduced by 40%; TSS was reduced by 98% and nitrogen was reduced by 29%.
