Trials to Reduce Water and Effluent Charges in Fish Processing
- Summary
- The recent implementation of the Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) has led to many processors facing a significant increase in trade effluent disposal charges. Aware of this problem, Seafish initially carried out a series of detailed company audits of businesses covering a wide range of industry practices. These audits were used to determine where problems occur and identify possible solutions to reduce water and effluent costs. This report details a series of technical trials carried out in collaboration with processors to develop simple, inexpensive, practical modifications to key equipment in order to reduce water and effluent costs.
