Reducing Chemical Oxygen Demand in the UK’s Food and Beverage Industry

The UK’s food and beverage industry is under increasing scrutiny for its environmental impact, particularly regarding wastewater pollution. High Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) levels in effluent from dairy processing, breweries, and food production contribute to oxygen depletion in rivers, harming aquatic life and breaching environmental regulations.

As industries face mounting pressure to adopt sustainable wastewater treatment solutions, SCIFLOC™ is emerging as a key technology in reducing COD and improving effluent quality. By effectively removing organic pollutants, SCIFLOC™ enhances sedimentation, filtration, and compliance with UK discharge limits, supporting both environmental sustainability and operational efficiency.

With river pollution and water quality challenges dominating headlines, the time to invest in advanced wastewater treatment technologies is now.
