The food industry has long faced and continues to struggle with the challenge of controlling material losses, which impact production costs and compliance with waste regulations. Food processing plants with onsite wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) must manage waste regulations that encompass not only wastewater but also lost raw materials.

To address this issue, the Hach Dairy BioTector B7000i TOC analyser was developed specifically for the dairy industry. Typically, lost product levels can be reduced by a conservative 15% using TOC monitoring. There is a direct correlation between levels of lost product and wastewater loading. According to Hach, users regularly report greater than 15% reduction to wastewater loading as a result of using TOC monitoring, with some users reporting as much as a 40% reduction.

A BioTector analyser automatically self-cleans all parts of the analyser, thus preventing clogging, sample contamination and inaccurate results. It only requires calibration and preventative maintenance in six-monthly intervals. According to Hach, the analysers have delivered consistently high performance in dairy applications, meeting uptime of 99.86%.
