Osmoseur eau ingredient industrie agroalimentaire

BWT Ingredient Water Osmosis Unit

Complies with EC regulation 1935/2004 and EHEDG hygienic design standards

A membrane technology designed to produce ingredient water or water for food steam production in compliance with EC regulation 1935/2004, the Ingredient Water Osmosis Unit ensures water quality that meets the current concerns of food manufacturers: sanitary quality of water, presence of micropollutants or other endocrine disruptors such as chlorates and perchlorates, etc.

Designed to produce water of impeccable quality and to make it easy to clean installations internally and externally, the Ingredient Water Osmosis Unit adopts the rules of hygienic design for equipment in accordance with the recommendations of the EHEDG (European Hygienic Engineering and Design Group), and certifies that the bacteriological quality of the water produced is under control.

In 2020, our equipment was awarded the Hygienic Design Prize by the EHEDG.

Water and steam ingredients, a major challenge

INGREDIENT WATER

At the heart of the food processing chain

In the food industry, water is present at every stage of production, determining and influencing the quality of the end product, particularly when it is brought into contact with food, used in its composition or to produce steam.

Its quality, which is controlled throughout the processing chain, is subject to increasingly strict regulations, and in an increasingly restrictive water efficiency context. The health safety of consumers and the image and success of manufacturers are at stake.

Our equipment is part of a global approach tailored to your needs, your problems and increasingly water-efficient, specifically designed to meet the health, safety and environmental challenges of the food industry. Microbial and physico-chemical control and hygienic equipment design are at the heart of this comprehensive solution:

water characterisation by our in-house laboratory,
design according to your specifications and regulations,
manufacture in our factories,
testing and qualification in our workshops
on-site connection and commissioning,
maintenance and operating assistance.

Win-win partnerships

VOLVIC
Reusing rinse water

To preserve the quality of bottled water, the bottling process uses natural mineral water to rinse the bottles and installations. Some of the raw water is recovered as service water for the utilities, while the surplus is sent to the wastewater treatment plant.

With a view to recovering the lost surplus, Volvic decided to install a treatment system designed to recycle the water, which could then be reused as process water.

Results: 600 m3 of water saved every day

KERVALIS-ARMOR, SARIA Group
Intelligent recycling

Kervalis-Armor has equipped itself with a container for reprocessing wastewater from the WWTP (wastewater treatment plant), to treat its effluent and limit the effluent discharged. The BWT container can purify, sanitise and soften up to 60 m3 of WWTP water a day.

With a capture rate of one million germs per millilitre, it delivers reprocessed water for industrial use of a quality that exceeds the required standards, guaranteeing optimum efficiency for production and employees.

Results: 15,000 m3 of reprocessed water per year

BRASSERIE LICORNE BREWERY
Reducing carbon footprint and water consumption

As part of an energy management project for production, Licorne wanted to improve the quality of the water entering the boiler, which produces the steam needed to heat the brewing tanks and whose water treatment was provided by a softener.

By installing an osmosis unit at the steam boiler inlet ( OPTIVAP solution with ESC), our customer reduced its annual gas consumption as well as its water consumption.

Results: - 500 MWh per year, i.e. 10 tonnes of CO2 not emitted into the atmosphere and 60% less water used
