Facilitation of Water Reuse Projects

The objective of this project has been to facilitate the conduct of three trials aimed at demonstrating mechanisms for reducing water consumption in meat processing facilities.

These three trials include:

• The adaptation of steam for the continuous sanitation of moving viscera tables in lieu of hot water;
• The design of a water reuse system for the processing of beef tripe and bibles; and
• The adoption of a cleaning program for carcase chillers built around physical manual procedures.
