¿Qué pretenden conseguir?
This Portuguese company is trying to treat wastewater, so it can be reused for irrigation and general washing operations around the plant. Besides, this client’s headquarters follow a strategy in which wastewater reuse aims to be part of the group’s environmental policy. Yet, reusing wastewater in the dairy industry is rather challenging since it comes loaded with organic matter (greases, fats, and proteins) which needs to be removed for the water to be reused.
