QUALITY PARAMETERS OF DRINKING WATER AND WASTEWATERS FROM FOOD INDUSTRY ASSESSEMENT

Journal Title: Natural Resources and Sustainable Development - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 1

Abstract

This paper presents the dynamic and the quality of drinking water and wastewater from four units of food industry: 2 milk factories and 2 meat processing factories. Depending on the need and use of potable water, in this research the potable water consumption (m3/day) of the monitored units is presented and the average quantities of wastewater discharged by the monitored units are evaluated. Also, samples of drinking water and wastewater were assessed using their physical and chemical parameters as indices. The quality of water extracted from artificial wells in the ground has been compared to the quality of water coming from the central source supply. To assess wastewaters quality from dairies and meat factories, before treatment and pretreatment, values of physical and chemical parameters of wastewater from dairies were compared with the values obtained in meat factories. The public health importance of using potable water in food industry and the implications of the sanitary condition of the food units on the water quality are discussed in the text.
