Knowing the flow in the brewing industry
By monitoring flow processes brewers can reduce water and effluent costs during the brewing, packaging/bottling and ancillary processes and in general areas. Reducing the amount of water used not only reduces supply costs, but also the volume of trade effluent produced. However, reducing the strength of your brewery’s trade effluent is equally important. Taking action to minimise the discharge of wastes with a high level of organic content can dramatically reduce your trade effluent charges. Optimising the CIP cleaning procedures, identifying leaks and stopping overflows are other areas where significant savings can be achieved.
This white paper will inform brewers how contactless flow measurement solutions can help them to save resources and costs. It includes a survey of water use which will assist in identifying priorities for action.
