Advanced waste slurry processing in the dairy industry

乳制品工业通常将其废弃物作为低固体泥浆处理。未来的目标是生产更高的固体产量。该项目将检查一系列废水污泥的脱水行为，并检查控制脱水能力的分子成分。该项目将为奶制品行业处理和处置废物的最佳脱水方法选择提供量化指导。这将使废物处理备选方案得到更好的战略设计和管理。

The dairy industry typically disposes of its wastes as low solids slurries. An aim for the future is to produce higher solids outputs. This project will examine the dewatering behaviour of a range of waste sludges and examine the molecular components that control dewaterability. The project will provide quantitative directions as to the best choice of dewatering methodologies to the dairy industry for the treatment and disposal of wastes. This will allow for better strategic design and management of waste treatment options.
