16 ABSTRACT
    A  study was undertaken to reduce water and waste discharges  in a  complex, multi-
 product  dairy food plant through management control and modifications  of equipment and
 processes.   The objectives were to develop approaches that would be  broadly applicable
 throughout the dairy industry and to  determine the economic and environmental  impacts
 of the programs instituted.
    Detailed studies were made to determine the plant areas contributing  major waste
 loads and  the economic feasibility of reducing these loads.  A Management control
 program  was developed and implemented over a 6-month period.  This program included
 irajor increases in direct supervision of waste control.  A Computer  linear program was
 applied  to the four processing areas  to  determine economic factors involved in waste-
 water discharges and to help select the  most economical process and  equipment  changes
 that could  be made.
    The Study concluded that material  reduction can be achieved economically in dairy
 food plants that have not previously  given attention to this matter.

                            ABSTRACT
     A study was undertaken to reduce water and waste discharges
in a complex, multiproduct dairy food plant through management
control and modifications of equipment and processes.  The
objectives were to develop approaches that would be broadly
applicable throughout the dairy industry and to determine the
economic and environmental impacts of the programs instituted.

     The Kroger Dairy Company at Indianapolis, Indiana, was the
study site.  This plant was chosen because it was well engineered,
discharged its wastes to a municipality, was under average manage-
ment control,  and had not previously had an extensive waste con-
trol program.  As such, it was typical of more than two-thirds
of the diiry plants in this country.

     Detailed studies were made to determine the plant areas con-
tributing major waste loads and the economic feasibility of re-
ducing these loads.  A management control program was developed
and implemented over a 6-month period.  This program included major
increases in direct supervision of waste control.  A computer
linear program was applied to the four processing areas to deter-
mine economic factors involved in wastewater discharges and to
help select the most economical process and equipment changes
that could be made.

     The study concluded that material reduction can be achieved
economically in dairy food plants that have not previously given
attention to this matter.

     This report was submitted in fulfillment of Grant No. R  803374
by The Ohio State University and the Kroge- Company under the
sponsorship cf the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

The purposes were to develop approaches that would be broadly



applicable throughout the dairy industry and to determine the



economic and environmental impacts of the programs instituted.



The results may be used to help reduce wastes at other dairy



food plants.







     To make the results as appplicable as possible, a plant was



chosen that was well engineered, discharged its wastes to a



municipality, was under average management control, and had not



been previously engaged in an extensive waste control program.



Such a plant was considered to be typical of more than two-



thirds of the dairy plants in this country.

-------
     The Kroger Dairy at Indianapolis,  Indiana,  met these criteria.
In addition, it was a large,  complex,  multishift,   multiproduct,
union-labor-operated plant.   If this plant could successfully
demonstrate waste reduction through management nontrol and equipment
or process modification, these approaches should be usable across
the industry.  The plant was constructed in 1973 and incorporated
the latest in engineering design available at that time, including
computer control of the separation processes and some waste
recovery techniques.  Fluid milk products, cultured products,
cottage cheese, ice crear, and frozen novelties were manufactured
under one roof.  The plant operated 5 days a week on a three-shift
basis, with some processing going on during all three shifts.
The wastes were discharged to the Indianapolis Municipal Treatment
Plant, which charged for volume and added a surcharge for biologi-
cal ox/gen demand  (BOD) and suspended solids  (SS) levels in  the
wastewater above municipal sewage strength.

     The results were evaluated with respect  to the extent of
wastewater  reduction and  its economic impact  on the plant.
Results were also  evaluated with regard  to the reduced environmen-
tal impact  of  dairy  food  plant wastes.

-------
OBJECTIVES

         The  project  was  divided  into  three phases:  (1) de-
termination of a baseline for water use, wastewater discharge and
waste   characterization,  (2)   development,  implementation, and
evaluation  of   methods   for   management   control   and   (3)
determination  of economically feasible changes in unit processes
and/or equipment for further waste reduction  in  the  plant  and
implementation of feasible changes.

        The specific objectives for Ehase 1 were:
        1.   To construct sampling stations  for
            monitoring the  waste from individual
            departments.

        2.   To determine a  mass balance for water and product
            through the plant.

        3.   To determine the volume and composition of the
            waste being discharged  from the plant.

        4.   To establish the waste  components that were inter-

-------
    dependently and  independently related.

5.   To determine specifically whether  the relationships
    between COD  (chemical  oxygen demand),  BOD,  and  SS
    were constant enough for the total plant wastewater
    to use COD as a predictive measure of  BOD and SS.

6.  To determine the amount of preventable and
    unavoidable water and organic discharges from the
    plant and  from each department. (The unavoidable
    waste is that associated with the design of the
    plant processes and can not be reduced without
    making physical changes.)

7.  To compare lossej measured  from production  re-
    cords with those measured  in  the  wastewater and
    to determine  the reasons for  previously  reported
    underestimates of losses by the use of production
    records.

 8.  To  determine  the major factors involved  in  the
    loss of  water  and organic  material.

 9.  To  determine  water  and waste coefficients for
    najor unit operations.

-------
The specific objectives for Phase 2 were:

1.  To develop a comprehensive management waste
    control program for reducing at least 75% of
    the preventable water and organic waste load.

2.  To   use   a computer system to monitor water,
    wastewater   recovery systems and product proces-
    sing as a managment tool in t!~" • jntrol program.

3.  To implement the control program, evaluate  its
    effectiveness, and make modifications to optimize
    the program.

4.  To prepare a waste control management handbook  for
    the dairy industry as a separate document.

The specific objectives for Phase 3 were:

1.  To  investigate the specific changes  in unit
    processes   or equipment that would
    significantly reduce losses of water
    or  ingredients.

2.  To adapt a computer linear  analysis  system  for  model-
    ing  the  waste-related costs of  milk products,

-------
            cottage cheese, ice cream and frozen novelties
            and thereby determine the economics of
            changing the unit  process  or the equipment
            or  both   to reduce waste loads.

       3.  To apply the LP model to the proposed project
           changes and select those that would recover the cost
           of the changes within an 18 month period.

       4-  To implement the process and/or equipment
           changes for reducing water or wasce loads
           and to evaluate the actual versus the predicted
           effectiveness.

BACKGROUND

       As regulations on the effluents from municipal water
treatment plants become more restrictive, major contributors
of organic matter, such as dairy plants, will face
considerable pressure to reduce their loads, increase
pretreatment,  and/or  provide  full  secondary  treatment.  User
charges  for  nunicipal  treatment  will  become a major economic
facto;  requiring good management control of fluid wastes in dairy
food plants.

       Historically,  dairy plants that have not been subjected to

-------
 prior pressure as point  dischargers  of wastewater or as
 overloaders of the municipal system have given little attention to
water or organic  was'.e  loads,   buch  plants'  waste  loads  have
generally  included  about  50% preventable wastes  under average
management control. Tne investigators considered that a  majority
of  the  plants  located  in  large  cities would fall under chis
category,   including   the  dairy  at  Indianapolis.    Kith  the
continuing trend for further consolidation of the dairy  industry,
ttiuse large plants probably contribute about 50%  to  60%  of  the  total
organic waste  load contributed by the  dairy industry.

        Tlie Kroger Dairy at Indianapolis  is typical  of the
large dairy plants that have been built over the  past decade  and
 that process  more  than 1  million Ib  of milk a   day   an-J   generate
organic  waste  lodds   equal  to  those  of  a city of  more  thar  50,000.
Nost  of thes«  plants jnrt   those  built  in the  future   will   be
 located near  a municipal  waste treatment  facility that  can
 effectively treat the  compatible   wastowaters  generated  by
dairy  product  processing.  Such  plants  will be major contributors
 of organic waste loa-.lj. Reduction  of these waste loads may have a
 '.ignif ic-ant   impact  on the  efficiency of the  municipal  treatment
 works in  many instances,    tho-jgh  the  degree of impact  will  vary
 in different  locations.

      Custrvations made before the   plant  was   chosen  for  study
 indicated   that (1)  large, preventable losses occurred,  (2) the

-------
plant  was  not  achieving water or waste control in keeping with
its  engineering  design  capability,   (3)   the management   was
concerned  about  waste control, (4)   the city sewer charges were
relatively low and thus made sewer costs basically  invisible  as
an  economic  cost, and (4) the plant provide'' a challenge for
developing an effective control program.

         At  the  time  this study was initiated, the Kroger dairy
received up to  1.5 million Ib of milk per day and discharged
approximately  500,000  gal  of  wastewater  per  day  with  an
average BOD load of   10,000  to  12,000  Ib.  The  amounts of
BOD  and  water  (wastewater  coefficients)  per 100 Ib of BOD
processed were 6.3 Ib  of BOD and 37C gal of wastewater,
respectively.  (These  data were based on a preliminary survey of
time composite samples over  1   week  within  6  months  of  the
opening of the plant.)

-------
                             SECTION  2



                           CONCLUSIONS








        The study of  the  Kroger  U;iiry  at   Indianapolis,   InrJianj



nas led to the conclusion  that material  reduction  can  be  achieved



economically in dair^  food plants  that have  not  previously  given



attention  to  this area.  The conclusions have  been divided  into



tnrc-e categories: (a)  those  relating to  the  composition of  dairy



fooo p  .nt wastes, (b) those  relating to reduction of  preventable



wastes, and  (c)   those   relating  to  process   and/or  equipment



modification to reduce unavoidable waste levels.







DAIRY PLANT WASTE COMPOSITION








     1.  The following waste parameters were interrelated: COD,



BOD, SS, volatile suspended solids  VSS), total  solids (TS),



protein, fat,  carbohydrates,  and photohorus.  Sodium, calcium,



and chloride varied independently of the other components.



These results are expected where the related organic components



are all derived from ingredient losses;   Na and Cl would also



be contributed by cleaning and sanitizing solutions, and



calcium chloride would be  discharged in large quantities



from the freezing of stick novelties.

-------
        2.   About 95% ot the organic matter in the waste from the




Kroner dairy plant was derived  from  food  ingredients,  and  the



remainder v>as derived from acid cleaniroi compounds.



        3.   Ihe bOD/COD ratio for the total plant  waste  at  the



Kroger  dairy  was  fount] to be 0.46  +  0.06. This suggests that



for  a  given  plant,  where  there   is   no   change   in   the



Cleaned-in-Place  (CIP) system  or   in  the  relative  amounts  of



different  products  processed,   the   BOD/COD    ratio   remains



relatively constant.  Therefore, either BOD or COD can be used to



estimate the other once  the  relationship has  bc-en  established  for




a  particular process.







       4.   Tnc  composition and  waste coefficients  for   the   Kroger



dairy were  typical of  those  ootained  for dairy plants  that  had  no




previous record  of extensive study.







        5.   The EPA-recognized metuods for determining fats, oils,



 and grease in municipal wastes were not reliable  for determining



 them  in dairy food plant wastos.   Acid hydrolysis before extrac-



 tion  was essential for providing a reproducible,  routine method



 to determine  fats, oils, ar.cl groaso.  The fat recovery by  this




 method was  37%  + 3%.








         f,.   The  standard Tcchnicon  method  for determining carbo-



 hydrates  in fluid wastes was not  reliable for dairy wastes,  since
                                10

-------
 it failed to measure  more  than  80%  of  the  lactose  in  the
samples. A modified procedure was developed that gave more than 90%
recovery of sucrose, lactose, glucose and fructose, which are  all
found in dairy plant wastes.

        7.   Because of  the  short time require' for analysis, COD
was  the  preferred  method  for estimating loss and  product yield
for  wastewater  analysis.    COD  analyses   of   products    and
ingredients  increase the  accuracy of  this approach.  This  involved
COD  analysis of  the wastewater,  COD  analysis  of  all  ingredients, and
calculation   of  pounds  of COD processed  by multiplying  the  amount
of each ingredient  used  by  the   pounds of   COD per   pound   of
 ingredients  and  summing the total  pounds of  COD  processed:  %  loss
 = (pounds COD in wastev/ater/pound  «f COD processed)  * 100.
         8.  Determination of losses by COD and/or BOD analysis of
 the  wastewater  was  more  accurate  than  that  obtained   from
 production  figures,  since  the  latter were frequently based on
 reference to established standards and production goals that were
 not  reflected  in actual  practice.

  MANAGEMENT  CONTROL OF '.JATEF AND WASTE DISCHARGES

          1.    Approximately one-third  of  the  water  and  one-half of
  the  orr^nic load  wasted  in the  Kroger  dairy  were  found   to   be
                                 11

-------
preventable   wastes   subject  to  reduction  through  managment
control.

        2.    Tlie  computer   installed for monitoring production,
water, and wastewater was of limited value because of inability of
project  personnel to program  it.  The  cost  of  software
revision was not economical.

        3.   Raw waste must be  transformed  into an economic  impact
format  (such as dollars of  loss/day)   for  management   to   fully
understand  the situation.

        4.   Data  interpretation is a major  problem   in   developing
•nanagament  understanding.    The  data generated  by  waste analysis
required   extensive   calculations  to   put   it   in   a   form  that
management  could  readily  understand  and  act on.   The basic
problem was that  the output  was  in   a   form  thr.t was too techni-
 cal for management use.  A  cheaper  alternative   to  speeding  up
calculations  by buying  more  software  for  the   computer  installed
 in  the  plant was to obtain a low-cost micro-computer that could
 be  programmed  in  basic  to  calculate    and    format   reports
 specifically for management.

         5.  This and other studies show that plant management does
 not  have an adequate background  in waste and waste co.-.trol  to be
 able to develop an  effective  control program without   specialized
 assistance.
                                12

-------
       6.     The  control   management   procedure   that   included




education   and  daily  evaluation was  effective in reducing  water



and wastes to about the level predicted.  A waste control manager




with no other duties was the best approach.







       7.   The management control  handbook  that  resulted  from



this   investigation  should be of value  in assisting management to



develop a control  program.    This  handbook  should  also




apply  to  other  areas  of  tl>e food  field.







        8.   Plant operators  are  Motivated  more   by   social   and



environmental  goals  than  by  economic  considerations.  The  op-



 erator,  in  the Kroger  dairy developed   interest   in   the  control



 program,  and about 10% were highly  motivated  as  long  as  th.'*  was



 visible  interest on the part of  their  immediate  supervisors.







         9.   A  detailed  analysis  of  the  water use, production




 scheduling, plant preventive maintenance, equipment operation,



 and   waste    loads   - by department and unit process  is essential



 to  understanding   how    to    structure a waste  control  program




 and    establish  realistic  goals.







        10.  ihe management control  program  can be  an  effective way



 of  reducing wastes  and will uor. than  pay  for the costs involved.
                                 13

-------
       11.    Control  of  preventable  wastes  is  a  management
function.   Effective control requires the full-time effort of at
least  one  individual  who has no  other  responsibilities   and
who answers directly to the general manager.

       12.  The LP computer models developed for this  study  are
applicable  to  any  dairy plant that has adequate information on
water  and  waste  coefficients.    The  program  was  useful  in
delineating  the  factors  associated  with economic  losses that
were waste -related, showing the  difference  between  design  and
actual  losses.   Loss-associated costs were for incredientSj.wa-
ter, wastewater,  surcharges  for BOD and 55,  packaging  materials,
labor  associated  with  lost  product,and energy associated with
lost product.

EQUIPMENT AND/OR  PROCESS CHANGES

        1.  The   LP  computer  program  provided  a   basis   for
determining  the  projected  effect  of  process and/or equipment
changes and was used in making final decisions  about the  changes
that were  economi:ally feasible.

        2. Process and equipment  changes  in   the  Kroger  Dairy
results   in  a  Savings  of  100,000   gal  per   day   (20%) and a
reduction  of 1000  ib  of  BOD    (10%)  per day.
                               14

-------
        3.    The   elimination   of   whey   was  not  considered



economically feasible at this time.  The cost of discharging  whey



to  the  municipal  treatment plant was 40 C/lb of dry curd.



More detailed information is needed  to  determine  the  economic



feasibility of converting whey to baker's yeast.

        Recommendations based on  this  study  are  divided  into

thos-  specifically  pertaining  to  the  Kroger  Dairy's  future

operations and those that apply to the dairy industry at large.


KROGER DAIRY RECOMMENDATIONS


        1. Continue the management waste control program using a

single  individual who has  no  other  responsibilities and who

reports r'lrectly  to the  plant  manager.


        2.  Institute  a  daily loss/cost analysis program of the

wastes from the ice cream and  from the  total  plant  operations,

using COD determinations.


        3.  Modify the current computer system to:

            a. exclude production data,

            b.  include  counters  from  milk  and   ice  cream

fillers.
            c. include stick counters  and package counters

               for  the four-stick novelty machines.
                                1C

-------
            d. include  mathematical  calculations  to  convert
raw data into usable form.

        4.  Improve maintenance capability  to  ensure  that  the
preventive   maintenance  program   is  actually  carried  out  as
scheduled and includes those items  specifically related  to waste
control.

        5.  Conduct further study to determine process
and/or  equipment  changes  that  would  further  reduce cost and
recover the cost of the changes in  3 to 5 years.

        6.  Conduct further study to determine the
technological and economic cost of  achieving  zero  discharge  in
this plant.

INDUSTF1YWIDE RECOMMENDATIONS

        1.  The management waste control program instituted at
the Kroger Dairy should be used by  other dairy plants as a
viable means of reducing waste loads.

       2.  The LP program used for  this study should he
made available fo.: general dairy food plant use.

       3.   Each  dairy  plant should institute a

                              17

-------
waste monitoring program using COD as the basic analytical
method to monitor wastes and plant yields.

       4.  All dairy plants should institute an
evaluation of the potential changes in process and/or equipment
that would achieve further reductions in waste loads.

        Special  features  in this plant that relate to water used



and waste loads are:







1.  Automated  CIP system:



        Seven  CIP units  serve the plant.  The  units  are  single



use, supplied  with  liquid  chemicals.  A stainless steel  trough  is



located below  the cnemical  feed  pumps to collect any  leakage   of



full    strength   chemicals   and    these    troughs   are  rinsed





                               28

-------
automatically to dilute any spilled chemical to prevent damage to
the drains.

2. Continuous processing of by-products:

        Computer-controlled standardizing clarifiers separate the
milk into cream and skim which can be  automatically  metered  to
produce  products  of  any  desired fat content, thus eliminating
batch operations and reducing the  start-up and shut-down  of  the
HTST units.

3.  Rinse  recovery:
        A   rinse   recovery system  is  installed for  the  three  milk
HTST units  to automatically save   water-milk   blends  during  the
start-up   and   shut-down  of    the pasteurizers.   The  rinses are
stored  in  a 3,000  gallon  tank  for  subsequent   use   in   ice   cream
manufacture.

 4.   Damaged carton product  recovery:

         Covered  stainless   steel  containers  are located  adjacent
 to the  milk fillers and in  the milk cooler  to collect  the product
 from   damaged   cartons.    An   automatic vacuum  system is used  to
 transfer  the product to the rinse  recovery  tank.

 5.  Segregated  sewer lines:

                                29

-------
        There are three separate process sewer lines in the plant
(See  Figure  2):  (a)   one  for  the milk receiving, processing,
filling and storage  areas,  (b)  one  for  the  ice  processing,
novelty  processing and packaging and ice cream packaging filling
and (c) one for  high  concentration  wastes  including  the  CIP
system,  cottage  cheese  and hub drains for the HTST units - for
separator sludge CIP solutions of these systems.  These  exisiting
lines  provided  a  basis  for   setting  up  sampling stations to
determine  the waste loads  from  the different departments.
GENERAL  PRODUCTION  SCHEDULING:

FLOW MONITORING AND SAMPLING:

        Description of sewer lines:

A  diagram  of the sewer lines and designation of the location of
sampling stations is shown in Figure 2.  There are four  separate
sanitary sewer lines discharging from the plant and connecting to
a 12 inch line that connects to the city sewer system by means of
a  lift  station.  A storm sewer line (not shown) is separate for
clean water discharges.

        The  separate  sewer  lines  are: (a)   an eight inch line
connectina the floor drains for  the  ice  cream  processing  and
packaging  and  the  novelty processing and packaging operations;
(b)  a six inch line connecting the floor drains for  the  cottage
cheese  processing,  the trash compactor, the special drains from
the 7 CIP systems and the hub drains from the  HTST  pasteurizers
that  collect  separator  sludge  and CIP solutions; (c) an eight
inch line connecting the floor drains for  milk  receiving,  milk
processing, milk packaging and the milk .  iler and (d)  a six inch
line from the rest rooms.

        Description of the sampling stations:

        The sampling stations were designated as Drains 91, 92,S3
                               34

and  |4.   Station H  (the lift station) already existed prior to
the study and included all four  sewer   lines  from  the  plant.
It is located at the corner of the property and approximately 500
feet from the last point of entry of the  sewer  lines  from  the
rest  rooms.   During very wet weather, there was a suggestion of
infiltration in the last 400 feet of the line, and  samples  were
not  taken  routinely  from  this station. An initial survey mad?
over  five  processing  days  showed  that  the  contribution  of
domestic wastes from the rest rooms contributed less that 0.3% of
the COD or BOD and less than 0.4% of the hydraulic load.  For the
above  reasons,  station  |3  was  selected  as  being most truly
representative of the plant's processing wastes.

        An  existing  man-hole  was used for station (3 and a new
man-hole was du-j at the junction of the lines from tne ice  cream
area  snd the cottage cheese-CIP drain  (see Figure 3). The latter
was four feet at the top and 5 feet in diameter  at  the  bottom,
whereas  the  former  was four feet in diameter. Drain |1 was for
the ice cream and novelty area; drain   12  was  for  the  cottage
cheese-CIP lines; and drain S3 was just beyond the point of entry
for the milk floor drains and contained  all  of  the  processing
wastes.    The  waste  from  the  milk  area  was  determined  by
difference (Drain 83 -/j>ain Jl + Drain |?7= milk wastes).

        The  sampling  stations  were  equipped  with permanently
installed weirs.  The construction of the weirs was changed after

initial evaluation and the final design is shown in Figure 4. The
weirs provided a satisfactory means of  measuring  flow  in  most
cases.    An exception was for drain 52 when more than two cheese
vats were drained at Llie same time.  In this case the 6 inch line
was not adequate to carry the flow and an error in reading existed
for a short time.  However, based on calculation from known  flows
through  drain   12,  the error did not exceed 5%.  Because of the
drop  in the line,  a   flume  would  not  have  been  satisfactory
either.  Chart  records showed when multiple cheese vats were
being  emptied and data for these  situations were not included   in
tnis  report.

        Based on experiences gained  in this   study,  flumes   were
determined   to   be  more  satisfactory  for  use  in monitoring  dairy
plant wastewaters - primarily because   they   are   self  cleaning.
Frequent   cleaning  of the  weirs  was  essential  to  avoid  recording
unreliable  data, bocause  of  debris backing  up  beh.r.d   the   weir.
 In the ice  cream drain,  for  example,  as many  as 1000 sticks  could
accumulate  behind the weir  in  a weeks  time.  Daily  review of  water
meter  flow  and  wastewater  flows  could be used to  monitor any
abnormal  readings.

         Throe   lanning  model   F-3024  portable dipping type flow
 meters  were  used  to  monitor  flow.    Tht   meters   operated
 continuously, and repair was necessary on each meter about once a
 yuar.  Three Manning  Model b-IPOO discrete portable samplers were

3.75 minutes and the minimum flow for taking one sample  was  110

gallons for drains »1 and 1120 gallons for drains »2 and »3.  Ice

or dry ice was used  in the sample case as a refrigerant when  the

ambient  temperature  was  above 4S°F. Manning  recording pH neter

wds rotated between  the  three drains  as  required.     Normally   pi!

was monitored  routinely  on  Drain »3.



         Sample handl in-] :



         Discrete  or  composite  samples were  generally refrigerated

 and  shipped   to   tho  Ohio  State    University   for   analysis.

 KHfrigorated   samples  were shipped in refrigerated trucks within

        Where  applicable,   the  methods  used   were   those   from



Standard  Methods  for  the  Examination  of Water  and Waste water



(1976)  or the EPA Handbook  on Analytical Methods (1973).  The   EPA



Handbook on Control in Water and Wastewater Analysis  was  followed



as a guide in the evaluation of methods used in this  study.







        BOD:    The 5 day biological  oxygen demand,  referred  to as



BOD in this report, was  determined   routinely   by   the  standard



bottle  method,  using  a  "SI  oxygen meter to measure dissolved
                              42

-------
oxygen.  The Hach manometric method was used to study effects  of
variables on the oxygen utilization as a function of time.

        A seed  was  obtained  from  the  Indianapolis  municipal
treatment  plant,  and  was  used fresh or was reactivated from a
freeze dried stock.  The activated freeze  dried  stock  and  the
fresh seed gave the same results.  Analyses were made of multiple
dilutions of waste water and a  standard  skim  milk  (9%  solids
reconsitituted from non fat dry milk) was used as a control.  The
control gave 72,000 +.  3,000 mg/1.

        COD:  Standard  Methods COD was used in this study as the
reference method.  Routine  analyses were made with  the  Technicon
Model   II  Autoanalyzer,  using   five  concentrations  of freshly
prepared glucose as a  standard.   Unknown standards  were  analyzed
on  a  routine basis to serve as a control.  During the final  phase
of  the  study, the  Hach digestion  unit and   pre-prepared  reagents
were   used  and  the results were  found comparable to the
Standard  Reference Method.

         Solids   Analysis:    All  solids analyses were by Standard
Methods without  modification.

         Kjeldhal nitrogen:  The   Kjeldhal method was employed
 using the Technicon Autoanalyzer  II  for. the
determination   (Technicon   method 334-74A/A76).  The dye binding
                               43

-------
method of protein  determination  was  employed  as  a  screening
technique,  using  the  Udy  method  and a Foss Electric Pro-Milk
Tester.  The  latter  procedure  was  evaluated  as  a  means  of
estimating  protein  in waste water for in-plant quality control.
For adequate  accuracy,  it  was  necessary  to  concentrate  the
samples  by  a   factor  of  10.  The comparison to protein values
determined by the Kjeldahl method was  + 10%.

         Livid   (fats,oil and grease):  Analysis of lipid  in dairy
food  plant wastes has been recognized  as a problem in a number of
investigations.    A  number of different methods were  evaluated,
and  the  Werner  Schmidt method was  found to be  most   satisfactory
for   routine  analysis.   A chloroform-methanol extraction method
applied  to  freeze dried  samples was most  precise,  but   required
too   much  time for  routine  use.   Standard Methods procedures  for
fats,oils and grease   were   unsatisfactory,  underestimating   the
total  lipid  by  from   30   to  50%.    The automated  Milko-Tester
procedure was also   evaluated   as   an   in-plant   quality  control
procedure and gave  non-reproducible results  on dilute dairy  waste-
water. Concentration of  samples by a  factor  of  10:1  and mixing
 with  a  milk  of known fat content .gave  results  that were  within
 + 10% of those  obtained  by the  fcerner-Schmidt  procedure.   Of  the
methods   evaluated,   the  Technicon  procedure   was  the   least
 satisfactory.

         The Vverner Schmidt procedure differed  from others in that
                                44

-------
it included an acid  hydrolysis  step.    The  procedure  was  as
follows:

1. A 20 ml sample (or known  weight)   is  added  to  a  Majonnier
flask,  followed  by  8 ml of concentrated HC1.  The contents are
mixed and place in a boiling water oath until digested, at  which
time  the  sample  will  be  chocolate brown.  Generally about 15
minutes of digestion are need for dairy wastewater samples.

2.  Add 8 ml of ethanol and gently invert tubes.

3.  Add 25 ml of of diethyl ether and  stopper  with  wet  corks.
Mix, but do not shake vigorously.

4.  Remove corks and add 25 ml of petroleum ether.   Stopper  and
shake contents.

5. Centrifuge the tubes in a suitable container for one minute at
approximately 700 rpm to separate layers.

6. Pour off the solvent layer into  a  clean  250  ml  erlenmeyer
flask and repeat the extraction process, but using 50 ml of a 1:1
mixture of ethers.

7. Proceed as for the standard Majonnier procedure (MIF 1968)
                               45

Experimentation revealed that  the  method,  while  reproducible,



gave only a  20% recovery of lactose at the  same time  it gave over



93%  recovery of glucose  and sucrose.   Subsequently  the method  of



Lubois   as  modified  by  Lawrence  (1968) and  Clark  (1977)  was used.




The  method  is  briefly as follows:







 1.      A  known   sample  containing   from  25-75  micrograms   of



 carbohydrate Is added to a 100 ml flask  and then  filled   half-way



 with  distilled  water.   To this is added 2.5 ml of lead acetate



 solution (10%w/v) and 9  ml of saturated  sodium flouride.  Make to



 100 ml with water, mix and allow to stand  for 10 minutes.







 2.   Filter  through  Whatman No 40 filter paper.







  3.   Pippette  1 ml  of phenol  solution   (5% w/v)  into  a clean glass




  stoppered  test tube.  Add 1  nl  of  filtrate.







  4.     Add  5  ml   of  concentrated  sulfuric acid from  a burrett,



  running the acid  down the side of the tube.  Insert stopper,   mix




  and cool.






   5.  Measure  O.D. at 490  nm.    Read   against  a  standard lactose

        DEVELOPMENT AND EVALUATION OF ANALYTICAL METHODS








EFFECT OF REFRIGERATED AND FROZEN STORAGE ON ANALYTICAL RESULTS:








        Because  of the distance between the Kroger Dairy and the



analytical laboratory at the Ohio State University, the  handling



of  samples  was  a major consideration.  A study was made of the



effect of both refrigerated (2 4°C)  and frozen storage (-28°C)  on



methods reported to be sensitive to sample storage.  The effects of




refrigeration and frozen storage on BOD, COD,  carbohydrate,



suspended solid's, and microbial population was determined.








         Refrigerated  storage:







         Twenty   samples  of   wastewater were  analyzed  immediately



 upon  receipt  and  after  24,  48  and 72  hours  of  storage  at 2 C.  The



 results   are   presented  in  Table  1.   On the basis  cf mean values,



 the dam for  all  four  analyses were  essentially unchanged  for  the



 first  48  hours.     Individual  analyses showed both  positive  and



 negative difference with a  maximum  variance of 9.5%.     After   72



 hours   of    storage,  there   was  a   decrease  in  the  BOD  and



 carbohydrate, an increase  in  SPC   and  suspended  solids  and   no

statistically significant change in COD.




        Since these samples were 24 hour  composites  and  had  an

additional G to 12 hours of delay in shipment, a series of hourly


samples (taken at various times) were iced and taken directly  to


the  OSU laboratory and analyzed with a maximum storage time of 6


hours.  These results showed no significant differences  over  72

hours of storage at 4 C.




        Frozen Storage:




        In a later stage of   this  project, the frozen storage of


samples was considered desirable.  Because of  the  statement  in


the  LPA  Handbook  on Analytical Methods for Wastewater Analysis

that freezing was  unsatisfactory,   a  study  was  undertaken  to

determine  the possible validity and limitations of holding dairy

wastewater in a frozen state for up to 20 days.




        Initial studies indicated unreliable and non-reproducible

results for COD in frozen  samples,  especially  those  with  COD

levels  over 2000 mg/1.  The cause  of the lack of reliability was

determined to be related  to sample  preparation  of  the  frozen
                                •
samples.   Elimination of the problem was achieved by thawing the

frozen samples, tempering them at 38-40 C for at least 30 minutes

to melt the milk fat and then mixing in a baring type blender for

one minute.
                                50

-------
        Subsequently,  24 samples varying in COD levels from 1000

to 10,000 mg/1 wore frozen and returned  to the  OSU  laboratory.
                                                         o
Samples  were  stored  for 0, 1, 5, 10 and 20 days at -28 C.  COD

analyses were made on all samples.   BOP,  suspended  solids  and

standard  plate  counts  were  made  after 0, 1, 5 and 10 days of

storaye.  The average results are shown in Table 2.  The  results

indicated  that the tempered-mixed samples gave COD analyses that

were comparable to fresh samples (correlation coefficient =0.945)

over  the entire 20 day period.  BOD analyses were reliable up to

10 days  (correlaton coefficient =0.934). A key to the success  of

the   LCD   results  was  the  use  of  freshly  activated  seed.

Manometric bOD results showed an   increase   in  the  lag  period,

which was minimized by using  freshly activated seed.




         In all ?ases the suspended solids  were  reduced  in  the

fresh   samples from 20 to 50%.  This was caused by the use  of the

Waring  blender that was essential  for  obtaining a  uniform sample.

Based   on these results, suspended solids  analyses were  made only

on non-frozen  samples.




Microbial  counts   (SPC) showed  reduction  in all samples after 10

days of storage.

        Lipids (fats,  oil  and  grease):







        Many dairy wastewaters, especially those from butter  and



ice  cream operations, are high in fat content.  There has been a



concern in respect to  measuring lipid  in  dairy  wastewater  and



also  concern over observations that with very high lipid levels,



the COD and BOD values are depressed (Carawan,  et  al  1973  and



Harper, et al . 1971).   Both of these problems v,ere investigated.








        A number of different methods were evaluated  for  use   in



this   investigation:   (a)   standard methods for lipids (fats, oil



and  grease)  as  outlined  in  the  Standard   Methods   for   the



Examination   of  Water and Wastewater, (b) the  standard  Maionnier



procedure as  applied  to  milk,  (c)  the  method  of  Carawan   et



al.(1973),   (d)  the Werner  Schmidt method as modified by the New



Zealand Dairy Hesearch Institute,  (e)  the Mi 1k-o-tecter   and   (f)



the  Technicon autoanalyzer turbidometric method.







        Of  the«;e methods,  the  herner  Schmidt,  P-Tjonnier,  Carawan



and   MiIk-o-tester  methods showed  some  promise.   A  comparison  of



these  methods  is  shown  in Table  3.   The   Werner   Schmidt  method



was most  reproducible and  gave the  best  recovery  for added  lipid.

        Although recovery of added fat was above 75% for  all  of



tlie  extraction  methods,  there  was continued concern as to the



true total lipid content cf the samples.  For  r.his  reason,  ten



high  lipid containing samples (5 from ice cream and 5 from total



plant wastewater)  were  investigated.    A  50f1  ml  sample  was



concentrated  10:1  in  a  roto-evaporator, freeze dried and then



exhaustively extracted  with  2:1  methanol-chloroform,  using  a



Soxhlet extractor.  This approach was based on previous -ork with



whey protein concentrates  that  exhibited  difficulty  in  totdl



lipid  extraction.  In this method the recovey of added lipid was



3^1 ±_ 3%.  The results are shown  in comparison to the  Najonnier,



Vverner  Schmidt  and Nil k-o-tester  in Table 4.  The Milk-o-tester



was shown to be  unsatisfactory, even when wastewater   was  added



to  a milk sample of known fat content.  Concentration of samples



10:1 did  improve the Milk-o-tester method so   that  it  could  be



used as a screening method.







        Based on these  findings the- xerner Schmidt  procedure  was



the  best  of those methods  suitable  for  routine analysis and was



adapted as the standard .nethod  for this  investigation.







        The  chloroform  methanol procedure, while  most accurate,



uas too time consuming  for  routine use.







        A study  was made to  determine the effect of lipids  on CCD



and BCD analyses.  Sample ranging  from 150 to 500C  mg/1  lipid  were

 analyzed   for   BCD  and   COD.    The  results  are  shown  in  Table  5.
 Vvhen  the lipid  content of  the  waste  sample was  in excess  of   2000
 mg/1   there  was  an  apparent   reduction  of  both  BOD  and  COD.
 Attempts were made  unsuccessfully to determine the reason for the
 reduction  in   values.     COD  analyses  of  pure milk  fat did not
 indicate any interference  with the method at concentrations up  to
 3000   mg/1.  Addition of carbohydrate or protein had no effect on
 COD.   In the case   of  BOD the  supression  of  BOD   values  was
 associated  with  added   lipid   with a marked increase in the lag
 value  and  reduction  in  generation  time.   This  inhibition  was
 thought to be associated with  free fatty acid content  of  the  high
 lipid  samples.

        Further  work  in  this  area  is  needed  to  clarify the
 problem and its solutions.

        Carbohydrate analysis:

        The initial procedure  used was the EPA approved Technicon
 autoanalyzer  II  method   for  sugars.  It was not until   attempts
 were  made  to  calculate  BOD   from   organic   analyses   that
discrepancies  were  noted  in   the  carbohydrate data.   Analysis
 revealed a  markedly  different  concentration  response   between
 lactose  and sucrose, glucose or fructose (See Figure 5).  Lactose
data were reproducible but  the  response  was  1/12.4  that  for
sucrose.

         In  order to salvage the data, the various waste streams



were analyzed for  carbohydrate  distribution  by  high  pressure



liquid  chromatography  on  a  V.aters  HPLC  using  a carbohydrate



column, a flow rate of 1.0  ml/minute  and  a  solvent  of  75:25



acetylnitrile-water.   The average carbohydrate distribution from



the      ice      cream      operations      was      59:37:08:04



l«ctose:sucrose:f ructose :glucose.      The  average  carbohydrate



distribution from drain |2 was 92:8  lactose:sucrose  -  with  no



detectable fructose or glucose.  The carbohydrate distribution in



the       total       wastewater              was       79:?0:1:1



lactose :sucrose :fructose :glucose .    Knowing    the    ratio   of



carbohydrates in the wastewater    (by  HPLC  analysis)  made  it



possible to correct the initial data to within +  10% of the true



value.   It was necessary to change to a method  that  would  moie



nearly  measure  all  of  the  carbohydrates.    While  HPLC  was



reliable, the method was not adapted to routine  anlaysis.    The



method   of   Dubois, as modified  by Lawrence (1963) and adapted by



Clark  (1977) to  dairy  wastewater,  was   utilized.    The  Clark



procedure  was   investigated   for  30  samples.    The results in



cougarison with  uncorrected  and  corrected  Technicon   Autoanalyzer



results  are  shown   in Table  5.   The Technicon values  Eor dairy



wastes  were  consistently low.  The DuBois  method was  used as  the



standard procedure  after the  initial studies.

        BOD was calculated from  the  sum  of  organic  compounds
round   in  the  dairy  wastewater.    Fat, protein, carbohydrate,
lactic  acid and citric acid were the major organic constitutents.
Fat and carbohydrates were determined by the methods developed in
this study.  Standard methods for this study  were  used.  Lactic
acid  was  measured  by the method of Randolph and Harper (1958).
Citric acid was determined from records of use. Mean  values  for
CO  samples  is shown in Table 7.  The correlation coefficient was
0.902.  The variance between   measured  and  calculated  BOD  was
15.2%.

         A comparison was made between the monitored wastewat-r as
 -asured at Drain ,3 with that calculated from water  meters  and
 production records for  product water use.   The amount of water be-
 ing  discharged  as wastewater  should be equal  to the total water
 metered  into  the  plant  minus  the water consumed within the
 water used  in the plant and either  recycled,  discharged  to thT'

-------
soft water lines that supplied the boiler,  air  compressors  and



refrigeration  compressors.  Water used in product was determined




from production data .








        The  calculated wastewater  and measured wastewater  were



determined and compared.  The variation between these two  values



is  summarized in Table 3.  Data is presented for mean calculated



and measured wastewater  flows,  mean  difference  between  these



values,  variance,  standard  deviation and the standard error of



toe means.  7he mean differences were within good agreement,  but



variance  in  the  data was a function of both the time during the



study and the inclusion or elimination of weekend  data.      The



data  is  separated into three periods; the first three months of



the study, the second three months and the  third  three  months.



The  data is also separated into that including all days and that



just including the five processing days.  The results  show  that



the  variance  in the measured and calculated values decreased as



the study progressed and that the variance  cor  processing  days



was less than fot that data that included weekends.  The decrease



in variance with progression  of  the  study  could  be  directly



related  to  correction  in   problems  with initial monitoring of



1'lpv. rpvision of weirs and increased familiarity with  the  care



required  to  obtain  reliable  data.   The Decreased variance by



eliminating weekend data was  related  to much  more  variation  in



flowu  on week ends and also  to a tendency of the flow monitor to



overrc-ad when flows were zero or less than  ]00,noo  gallons  per






                                G5

clay  for  Drain  S3.    During the  first period, the weekend  flows



varied from  45,000  to 287,000 gal/day; for the second period, this



difference was from 89,500 to 278,000 gal/day; and for the third



period, tne difference was from 166,000 to 320,000 gal/day.








        hater  use  increased  from  383,000  gallons  in  the  first



period to 635,500 gal/day  in the third period, or a 66%  increase.



Over  this  same  period the amount of milk received  by  the  plant



increased from 1,100,000 to 1,600,000 pounds  per day   for  a   45%



increase.








VvATEH UTILIZATION:








        In  plant  water use (water used for  cooling  tower,  water



used for compressors and boiler feed and water used for  product)



is  summarized  in  Table  9  Cor the second  and third periods of



study.  Means values ore presented  and average percentage  of   use



for  all days, processing days and  weekends.  Analysis of variance



for this data is shown in Table  10.    There  was  comparatively



little  change in the amount of total in-plant water  use over  the



nine month period, whereas the percentage of  water   consumed  in



the  plant  decreased as the total  amount of  water use increased.



There was also a change in weekend  versus processing  days  use.







       Tlit  daily  vari^tion  of  water use for processing during



the  months  o£  nay  and  August   are  presented  together  with

 snort  time  (let's tlian 10 minutes per sample)  con.oosite samples



showed comparable results for this plant. Time samples  taken  at



time  intervals  greater than 7.5 minutes were consistently lower



in  strength  of  all  components  than  were  flow  proportional




samples.







        Monthly mean values in mg/1 for  the  various  parameters



measured in the wastewater from the Kroger Indianapolis Dairy are



presented in Table 11.  This data represents the averages for all



days.   Overall the values of the various components appear to be



similar to that expected from an average dairy  plant  processing



milk,  cottage  cheese  and  ice  cream.  Inspection  of the aata



indicates that the waste strengths of the various  components were



relatively constant over the nine month period.







        Tha overall mean  values  of  the  monthly  averages  are



coin pa red  to  averages  of  the daily values for all days and for



only processing days  in Table 12. In general  the  means  of  the



monthly  averages  and  means  of the individual data are in good



agreement, with the latter being consistently lower by  from  0.2



co  2%.    As  would  be  expected tue standard deviations of the



monthly  averages  show  significantly  less  variance  than  the



standard    deviations  for the daily values.  Of interes*- i:., the



relatively close agreemenc between the averages for all ^ys  and



the  average  strength  of  the components in wastewater for only



processing days.  This  reflects several  things about  the  nature

of   the   plant  operations:(a)  whereas  the  total  wastewater



discharged on Saturday and Sunday  is  about  one-third  of  full



processing  days,  raw  milk  is  received  on  both Saturday and



Sunday, (b) processing often carries  over  into  early  Saturday



morning  with  clean-up  continuing  until  mid-morning  and  (c)



cottage  cheese  making  is  started  on  Sunday  night  in  most




instances.







           hith  the  exception  of  sodium   and  chloride,   all



  .".iponents  of   the  wastewater  were slightly higher  in strength



for processing days, as would be expected.  In the  case of  sodium



and  chloride, the low values for  processing  days would reflect  a



greater contribution of cleaning and sanitizing   to   the  weekend




wastewater than  during processing  days.







              The pK of the  wastewater varied  continuously through



the  processing  aay,  reflecting  cleaning, processing  of cottage



cheese  (pH

wastes.  Probability plots for hourly values were  typically  " S»
shaped,   whereas   daily   variations  were  reasonably  linear.
Exceptions were noted when there  was  a  marked  change  in  the
production  scheduling,  such  as  no  ice cream processing or no
cottage cheese processing. Because  of  overlap  of  departmental
operations  being   reflected   in  the  total wastewater  picture,
graphs  do  not   provide  much specific   insight  to   causes  of
variation.     Therefore,  plots for  the overall  plants wastewater
are  not  shown, but  will   be   detailed   in   the   next   section  of
 individual  departments  where the variability can  be  specifically
 related  to  unit  process  operations.

         Kel.itionship between Kostewater  Characteristics:

         The monthly  average  values  (Table  11)   were  used  to
 evaluate  which  parameters  of the wastewater were dependent and
 independent of each other using linear regression  analysis.  The
 data  for February  through September were  used, since  inclusion  of
 the January data markedly altered  correlation coefficients.   For
 example  the  correlation coefficient between BOD  and  carbohydrate
 was 0.44 with the  January data and 0.76 with this data excluded.
  be 1 tic ted   data   are  presented   in  Table 13,  showing  co, relation
  coefficients,  the  linear regression  equation   and   the  standard
  orror  of  the esti-nate.  The parameter  listed  first  was always  X.
  Prediction ot a given parameter  from  a  dependent   variable  was
  considered  feasible when the correlation coefficient «« = greater

than 0.75 and the standard error of estimate was less than 1C%.








         As  ex[jected  there was good correlation between BOD and



COD and those parameters  directly  related  to  them:   including




total solids and carbohydrate.   Surprisingly, the correlation



coefficient for protein and either BOD or COD was less than



0.5.  This suggests a disproportionate amount of protein



remaining on soiled surfaces that is either carbohydrate or




fat.






        based  on the  stanaard   error   of   the  estimate,   COD  was



better  for  predicting  BOD than was faOD for predicting COD.








         Suspended solids were  only poorly correlated  to  FOD  or



 CUD,  but were correlated to total solids and protein.







         bodium and chloride were well correlated only to ash, and



 v.ore-  not  correlated  to  other  constituents  or  to each other.



 -odium ion  concentration  would  reflect   the  use  of  alkalir-



 cleaning  compounds,  whereas  chloride   would  reflect  the  use of



 sanitizin-j solution and  regeneiation of  water  softeners.







          Phosphate,  a   constituent   of   Loth   milk   and  cleaning



 CQ.J. pound &, was not  well  correlated  to calcium  ion  content.   Also,



 the  rat-10  of. calcium  to  phosphorus   was  lower  than  expected based



 on  milk  coBj-obition.   Tins suggests  that  much  of  the  calcium
                                 32

-------
content was associated with protein films remaining on equipment,



especially on hc-ated surfaces.








       Conductivity  was not correlated to any other parameter by




a correlation coefficient  greater  than  ().5  and  its  use  was



considered  to  be  of  limited  value  and  was  dropped  as  an



analytical method.








        Based  on  these  data,  characterization  of dairy plant



wastewater may be made  from  limited  analyses.    COD  or  BOD,



suspc'nded  solids,  Xjeldahl nitrogen (protein) , chloride, and sodium



ion would be the most useful parameters.  For organic matter  COD



and  suspended  solids  measurements  would  provide  the minimum



analyses.








        Wastewater Coefficients:








          The  determination  of  wastewater   coefficients   was



considered essential to interpret the results in respect to other



dairy plants and  to  provide  a  basis  for  comparison  among



departments  and  also  to  provide  baseline data for use  iri the



litter stages of the project.








        Two  approaches  were used during  this study to determine



coefficients: (a)  calculation of the amount of BOD processed from



production  figures  and   (b)   determination of the amount  of COD

-------
processed through analysis of the   COD  of   all   ingredients   and



calculation  of  COD  processed  from ingredient  use  figures.   The



former approach was used in the  initial  phases of the   study   and



the  1ftter  evolved  during  studies  of    losses  in  invididual



departments and unit processes on  a daily basis.








       Calculation  of  BOD  processed  was  based  on  the  use of



standard values for protein, fat and carbohydrate:



        -protein = 1.03 pounds of  BCD/pound of  protein



        -lipid   = 0.9 pounds of bOD/pound  of lipid  (fats,oil  and

        The  amount and composition of milk, cream,  non-fat dried



milk, whey solids, buttermilk solids, and  various  carbohydrates



were used  to  compute the amount  of EOD processed.  This approach



was valid for weekly or monthly average data, but because of   the



bookkeeping  system used, it was not practical  or convenient  on a



daily basis.  For daily data,  the  use  of  COD  was  much  more



convenient  and  proved  to  be  more reliable.   For working  with



weekly or  monthly  averages,  both  approaches  gave  comparable



results.







        To determine yields, it was  also  necessary  to  convert



waste  strengths   into mass  weight values.   The pounds of a given



waste component  were calculated by the  formula:






                               84

-------
    pounds of component = gallons of wastewater x 8.3' x



                           (mg/l)/l,000,000








        The  pounds of four constitutents of concern are shown in



Table 14.  The data ere present as averages for the three separate



three-month  periods.   Vvhereas the waste strength was relatively



constant over the   nine-month  period,  there  was  a  continual



increase  in the pounds of COD, BOD, SS and phosphate during this



time.  This was reflected  in an  increase  in  wastewater  volume



that  was noted previously, as well as an increase in production.



The dataareshown for all days and for processing  days.    Again



the  differences are not as great as night bo expected because of



some processing on botli Saturday and Sunday.







        'Aastewater  volume  coeffients  in  terms  of  gallons of



wastewater/lOR pounds of BOD processes and coefficients for  COD,



BOD,  SS  and  phosphate   in   terms,  of  pounds/100 pounds of EOD



processed are presented  in Table 15.  The data are given  for  the



three  separate  three-month periods and for both the entire nine



months and the last six months.  The last  six  months  data were



used  as  the  base   for   comparison,  although   a  comparison of



coefficients wit'.  ;lie last three months  was      made  also.  The



increase  in coefficents during the nine-month  period  indicates an



increasing cifliculty in waste control with  increased production.



Average deiily pounds of  bOD processed were:

 ICE CREAM








      Tne mean   wjste   stren-jrh  and   standard   deviation  of  the



 various  wastewater    parameters for  the  ice cream  department are



 shown  in Table  17  for  all  days and   for   processing  days.  Using



 fat,  carbohydrates,   protein   and   citric   acid  values,   a mean



 calculated bCD  was 2,10'J as compared  to 2,054  mg/1 .








      Comparison  of  these  c!std  with the total plant wastewater



 rovLals  some   distinguishing   characteristics that    would   be



 expected Irom the  ice  cream and  novolty operations.  A  higher fat



 tind carbohydrate content and a lower  protein concentration was  to



 SJG  expected  because  of  the   composition  of  the  products  being



 manufactured.   Lower phosphate  reflects the  absence of  milk  salts



 in  many  of  the novelty  products.   The markedly higher chloride



 iind calciij;:, ion content  reflects  the  fact   that  the  Vitaline



discharges  calcium  chloride   to  the ice  cream drain.  The data



 indicate that approximately 38,000  pounds   of  calcium  chloride



br incnrc dischor-jed each month.   This compares  favorably with the



 purchase records of 40 tons ot calcium chloride per month.

 parameters.   The   correlation   coefficient   between   COD/BCD  was



 0.36,   and   both  CCD  and  BOD were  well  correlated  with  both  total



 solids  and  suspended  solids.








      In   contrast   to  the  total wastewater,   the best correlation



 witn  organic  components  is  protein   with  very  poor  correlation



 v-ith  lipid  and carbohyd rate.   This  can be explained on the  bnis



 of  relatively constant  protein  level  in   both   ice   cream  and



 novelties,  but  markedly different  fat content and carbohydrate.



 Lack  of correlation then would  reflect large  differences   in  the



 amount  of  loss  of   ice   cream and novelties on  different  days,



 wnich would be in ag reement with observations.








      Multiple  regression  analysis of COD and LOD with protein



 plus lipir: plus carbohydrate gives a multiple correlation



 coefficient of 0.23 and 0.88, respectively.

 The  lactose is the major whey component and the elevated protein
 level indicates the loss of casein in the  form  of  curd  fines.
 The  fines  do  not appear to show as suspended solids. The waste
 strength values shov, more variability than those  for  the  total
 wastewater     or  for  ice  cream.   The reasons for this will be
 discussed later when detailed  studies  of  this  department  are
 presented in unit  process investigations.

      Table  22 expresses the regression analysis of selected   pair
 of   data.  The  BOD/COD correlation coefficient  was 0.94.   BOD was
 also correlated (r=>0.8)  with carbohydrate, lactic acid,
 lipir' ar.ri protein.  Multiple   regression  analysis  showed
 COD and  bOD related   to  protein,   lipid   and   carbohydrate   with
 correlation  coefficient   of  0.97   and   0.98,  respectively.   SS
 correlated    with     protein  (0.99),  carbohydrate   (0.93)   and
 lipid    (0.87).    Inclusion    of    lactic acid   increased   these
 coefficient-,  to   0.92  and    0.95,   respectively.    The   higher
 correlation   between   BOD/COD and  components   relates   to   less
 variability   in  composition   of    the    wastewater    from    this
 department.

     Table  23 shows the mean  waste loads  for selected wastewater
 characteriatics  from the cottage chcese-ciP department. The load
o£ settleatalGSolids is inuch lower than mi-jht be expected  because
of thd presence of solid curd  particles in the wastewater.

milk plus  ice cream processed in the plant as a result of the CIP



operations.    Detailed studies reported later will clarify these



coefficient  values,  which  have  relatively  limited  value  in



assessing  major  waste  problem  areas in the cottage cheesc-CIP

the high  correlation coefficients.  Regression analysis of



selected  parameters for  the milk department are shown in Table  26.



COD/BOD and  lipid  showed the lowest correlation coefficient which



suggests  variability in  usage.   The characteristics of the



wastewater are different than for either ice cream or cottage



cheese and the organic components more nearly approach the



composition of milk.  As a  basis of overall comparison,  the



following is the percentage of  fat,  protein,  and  carbohydrate in

        To more fully characteiize the wastes  from  this plant and



lo establish the significant woste loads  that  could  be  targeted



for    reduction    through     cither     managment    control   or



process/equipment modification, a number  of  detailed studies  was



i.icde  to  establish  the  total  water  use  and ingredient losses in



frozen des&erts, cottage  cheese, culture  products and fluid  milk




products:







        -frozen dessert operations were separated into ice



         cream and  stick  novc-lty operations  (drain  .11)  and



         included  the wastewater associated  with cleaning the



         ice crean  stordje  tanks and  lines and the  start-up



         and £,iiut-aov.n of the  pasteurizer (drain 32)







        -cotta-je cheese operations  included  those processes



         associated with  cheese nuking, cream dressing



         manufacture dnd  cottage cheese packaging t->nd the



         clean-up  ot associated equipment (drain S2).








        -cuJturtrd  products  oporation   included the processing,



                    arn.1  cleaning of  ecjui[>incnt usud  for the





                                111

-------
         manufacture of yoghurt, scur cream and buttermilk.



         (drain ,12)








        -Milk processing operations included the receiving of



         fluid milk, processing, packaging and clean-up. The



         wastewater  associated with these operations was all



         of that generated in the milk department (drain



         J3- drain Jl -drain S2), plus that going out drain



         ,12 from CIP cleaning and HTGT operations.








       The objective of these studies was to obtain base data for



further  study and there was no need for complete analysis. Based



on previous data, analyses were limited in most  cases  to  water



volume and BOD and/or COD.  In some cases SS was also determined.








        These special studies generally involved a combination of



individual  observations and analyses over a least three separate



processing days.    Care  was  tahsn  to  choose  days  when  the



production  in the area under study was typical,  hhere possible,



the time was chosen   to  permit  maximum  interpretation  of  the



wastewater from the  product area under study.







        'Ihe contribution of CIP operations to a specific  product



area  could be isolated, since each of the seven CIP units served



a specific area and  tlio discharge to the sewer was metered.   The



designation of the CIP unit and the area served were as follows:
                               112

        hater  flows  discharged to the sewer were either metered



or flow was diverted into a  container  and  timfd  with  a  stop



watch. HTST units could be monitored individually and waste loads



estimated on the basis of diversion times snd flow rates.







        Analyses  wore  made of wastewater discharge on an hourly



or half-hourly basis and correlated to observations cf  what  was



occur ing in the plant at that time.








        Loss studies generally were conducted by measuring COD in



all the ingredients used and by measuring COD in the wastewater.

        The frozen dessert area could be separated into two major



product areas: (a) ice cream, sherbets  and  stickless  novelties



and  (b)  stick novelties.  In terms of COD processed about 35-45%



was  from  stick  novelties  and  55-65%  was  from    ice   cream



operations.    The  mean contribution to COD processed was 38 and



52% respectively.








        Attention  was  given  to:   (a) wastewater volume and  (b)




COD.








        Vvastewater volume:








        Overal-1 mean  wastewater  flow  for  all   frozen  dessert



operations for the base  perio-1 of study was as follows:








        tloor drains       242,000 gallons      (37%)








        CIP                 11,560 gallons      (  4%)

           TOTAL            278,160 gallons/day








       * The daily water  use  for  the  pasteurizer  varied   widely,

-------
122,000 gallons /day.The former would be considered minimum ,/ater

use and would include one start-up and one shut down.



        The  mean  coefficient  of  wastewater for frozen dessert

operations was 527 gallons/100 pounds of BOD processed.




        Hourly wastewater flows (floor drains only)  for a typical

processing day are shown in figure 11.  Start-up, processing  and

clean-up  areas  are  marked  on the graph.  During  the operating

day, the water flow was  relatively constant at 9,600 gallons  per


hour .



       Not  included is about 15,000 gallons of  water  per day  used

for  the   cooling  tower,  boiler  and  compressors  or about 7500

gallons/day  of water used for  product,  since this water use is not

fischarged to the  sewer.

clean-up  tiiiies  are  indicated.   Increased  COD loss  was  observed



during start-up, at several periods during  the  processing  day   and



during  clean-up.   The increased losses during the processing  d?y



wore related to  equipment  operations  problems   at   either   th«



vitaline  or  ice  cream   packaging machines and  at 4 pm  the  peak



loss was due to the lose of 25 galjons of  40%  cream  in  the   mix

        tines   loss  was  significant  in  this operation and two
approaches were used to measure this loss.  One was  the  removal
of  the  fines by centrifuyotion (Table  29) and the  second was, the
measurement of the casein loss.  The  second  was   more  accurate
than  the first, since centrifugatic  removed only  from 30 to
of the casein due to the small size of some particles.

        The  loss  of  casein  in  the  whey  and   washwaters  was
 different  in the 3COO and  1600  gallon  vats,  as  shown   in  the
 following:

             total                    7.7            f,.2

        About one-half of the casein  loss was associated with the
washing procedure and the loss in the  small  tanks  was  greater
them  in  the   larger  vats.    There was considerable difference
between trials  in the loss  which  could  be  attributed  to  the
characteristics  of  the curd and also to the time  the nechancial
agitators were  in use.  The highest loss observed was  J2.1%  for
one  vat.  other vats made on the same night had losses below fft.
ln-2 lowest loss was 4.1%.   One single trial  was mndo to determine
the  effect  of hydrolysis by either  rcnnin  or microbial  cultures

-------
 on  casein  loss.     The  results indicated  that  up  to  5* of tho



total casein loss could  be  attributed to hydrolysis.
       Ine  bOD/COD   ratio   was  0.45.      Overall   the BOD loss

        The  management  control phase of the  study was  conducted

in three separate stages:


        Stage  1       Management used basic cats, obtained  in the

plant survey and undertook a  control  program  with   no  outside

assistance ir the planning or execution.


        Stage II   Management appointed  a waste  control  committee

to  supervise the program and The Cnio State  University  personnel
pro'-ioed  input in planning and  execution of  the  progra.n.


        Stage  III   A  single resource control manager was placed

ir. ciiurge  of the control  program, reporting  directly to  the  plant

mi.na.jer    with   no   other  responsibilities.  The managment control

        Prior  to trie initiation of  the  ner.a-gemer.t  control   phase

of cue  [.rogrin,  the  following  steps .
-------
       1.  A meeting was held  to acquaint Kroger management
with  the  findings  of   the   plent survey.  The economic  impact
of the losses was reviewed.

       2. A PDP-11 computer was installed to monitor wate-;  use,
water discharge to the sewers and  the production  of   fluid  milk
products.  The  system  printed   a  daily summary and  could print
nourly reports as requirec.
         3.    Goals were established    f^r  the  management  control
     am  bosed  :>n  data  end   an   estimation  of  what  should  be
 achievable   in   the   reduction   of   water  being discharged to the

         Computer Monitoring of Selected  Plant  Operations:

         Computer  Concepts  of  Knoxville,  Tennessee,  installed a
 PDP-11  computer with Computer Concepts  I/0's to monitor   selected
 production   and  water flows in the Kroyer  Plant.   The  system was
 not  pro'j rammdble by the project personnel.

         Th*   sybten gave a daily summary and could  also  be  set  to
 •jive  hourl>  or  half-hourly reports that permitted   monitoring  of

1.5 pounds of bOC per 1UC pounds of KCD processed.  Tlie  target   at



Krojer  Indianapolis  plant was  to   reduce  the  BOD    to     3.5



pounds of LCD per  100  pounds  of  F.OR  processed.  This   target



included  the  discharge  of  whey. The minimum estimated  savings



vould have been $250,000 per year.








STAGE 1







     Stage 1 management control w«js directed by the plant  manager



»ithout  any  assistance  from  The chio  JJtdte  University  project



personnel.  After presenting the naterial  in terms  of  waste loads



and  economic   impact  and  potential  savings  to  the manager,  the



manager v»as then left  in charge of  development   of  the.  control



[.rogra.;i.   In this stage, there was no specific assignment of  any



individual  personnel  and  the  nanager   really    indicated   an



increased  c^areiiess   of  need  rnd  passed  on through channels  the



n'ifcu  for water  and woste  reduction.







      There  was no   statistically  significant  decrease in either



»ater   utilization,   hCL/CDD   dischargs    or    suspended   solids



discharge-  o*/cr the   threo-montli  period.   The mevin v;ater, EOD and

     The  computer   daily  readout   was  not  utilized    by   the

personnel.    One   ot  their major  objectives  was to  use this as a

production review  procedure tut  because of air   incorporation  in

processinj  to  varying  degrees,   the quantities indicated on the

computer review were not accurate.   The information  that could be

gleaned  from  this was not used,  but it should  be indicated that

no interpretations  were provided.



     There    *cre  several   lessons  learned  in  this  stage  of

investigation, none of which was  unexpected. These  were:



           1.   A control  program is not  easy to  install

               in a operating dairy plant.  It must meet

               a specific production  schedule.



           2.   Without  specific  responsibilities assigned,

                         y  no  control  will  be achieved.
                               154

-------
3.  Kaw ddta generated either by an  inplant monitoiing
    computer or from v,aste analysis data have very
    little meaning at any level  of  management.

4.  Interest alone on the fart of plant  management
    and  personnel  is insufficient to  achieve  a
    control  program.
                     155

L.TACI; ii







          There was a change  in management at  the  Kroger  dairy in



January of 1973, just proceeding  the  initiation  ot   Stage  II   cf



the  management  control program.  This necessitated  bringing  the




new manager up to date on previous studies and  the  results  of  the



Sta-je   I  control  program.    Following   this,   n  new management



control program  was  initiated,  which   built   on   the  previous




ex pericnces.







     Program  Development:








          The program was designed  to cover  a  six month period of




time.   In January, a committee  was  formed which consiste'  of  Mr.



John   Korrison  (Plant   Manager),  Mr.  Non.ian  Clark  (Production



Superintendent.) ,  ;-irs.   Art   Push   (Chief   engineer),  Mr.  Joseph



ijdl unb^no   (Quality  Control  Manager)  and  b.  James Harper from the



OLD  project  staff  to  discuss  prior   findings  and  to  plan  an



o/era 11 prog ruin.







           The philosophy and general  procedures used  in  the Stage



 H   progrdi.i are detailed in .1 separate document "Waste Management



 Control Handbook for the  Liiiry  Industry"  prepared   under   this

         because  of  advances in  micro  and minicomputers,  it may be
more economical  to  replace the  current unit  with  a  system   that
the  plant  personnel can program.  Simple  programs in  basic were
developed to do  this  with the data  from  the  computer  and  by  the
addition  of  COD   data   from   wastewater    analysis  and  input of
ingredient  usaje, a complete waste  report   was   generated.   (See

determination of possible process and equipment changes to reduce




losses in tlie last phase of the study.








        Management Changes During Study:








        In response to the finding of the investigation, a number



of changes were made during the waste management control phase to



improve management control.







        These we r e:








        I.  Creation  of a new position of General Foreman of the



Second Shift to provide more management supervision  during  what



was indentificd as a high loss period of time.







        2. Helocation of several  Foremen  to   improve  management



efficiency.







        3. Creatioi. of a -:ew position of  OperaiJons  Coordinator



of  stick  novelties  operations,  by   appointing  an experienced



novelties operator to this position  to  oversee  all four  machines



and   to assist  training of operators on a continuing basis.  (This



was the area of highest loss in  the   plant  and   also  where  the



jreatcst  labor  turnover occurred.)







                Progress of Management  Control  Program:

-------
                  1C   through   ?'  sho\.  t'ie  chnnnos in  coefficients



Cor water anri LUU Cor  the   total   plant,   ice   cream   opcr; tions ,



stick   novelty   operations,    fluid   milk    products  ?nd  BOC



cotitCic iunts Cor  total plant less whey BOI3.








        Over  the  period   sliov.n,  there  was  a  marked decrease in



both the volijinc of waste-water  discharged  and  the   LCD  discharged



per  100  pounds  of   milk  equivalent.   Overall  the  lowest level



achieved was lor  Lho  month  of  Nay.   For   ice   cream,   the  lowest



level of coefficients  was achieved  in  the  first part  of June.  In



most cases the 'joc.ls  established  were  met. 'Hie  greatest reduction



was  tichiuvcu  in  the   stick   novelty area,   where  the greatest



     sis was placed.
        Mien  \\.  J.   liar IJG r   stopped   makiny   weekly visits, the



losses in tiie (.lc.rit  increased.   However,  they  never went back  to



t.Jie  same  level  oS  for  the  base  comparison period.  The results



were noL Lo L>t  unexpectea ,  since  the  OGU  personnel  was  actually



serving  in   cli»  capacity  of   a   V.'aste   Control Supervisor.  Of



interest was  the  Luct  that  during  April and  May,  the days that he



v«dr, present,  the  plrnc  showed a  significantly  lower loss than the



nt-in values.  'inn, amounted  to  a  coefficient reduction  of  about



50 gallons Cor  Wcjter  and  0.5  pounds Cor bCD  per IRQ pounds of BOH



processed .

        'I he results led  to tin? conclusion  that  iwastu  reduction  of



about 5(H  in both voter  and product losses could  be achieved , but



that  constant  attention  v»as  required.  The  job wis more  tine



demanding  than recognized and could not be achieved by making the



responsibility   an   additional   one   to  existing  personnel,



regardless of the intcrp.-L such individuals obviously had   toward



the project.
      III:
        based  on the findings during  the  second  stage  management



cor.trol [jrogiuin, an individual  was  hired  as   Kesource   Control



Manager .    Ttie  only  responsibility  of   this  individual  was  to



devott attention to  the  control  of  water  losses,   ingredient



losses  and energy losses. He reported  d i rectly to  the manager and



was independent of all current departments.    lie   operated  on   a



flt-xiole schedule, jiving attention  to all  three  shifts.








        The success of this approach can not be  fully assessed  at



thib  time,  since insufficient time has elapsed  since  the  hiring



of  the  individual  to   fully  assess   the  impact.       Initial



indications  are  that  the  degree  of  control  v^ill surpass that



achieved in Ljtage II.

       PROCESS  AND EPUII'MCNI  CHANGES TO HLDUCE hACTL LOADS
              purpose   of  this   section  is  to  describe  the

invostiyfction of process  and/or  equipment  changes  that  could

result  in naterial savings in water and product losses,   bone of

these changes would eliminate  operator  discretion   through  the

installation of controls and  thus reduce preventable  waste loads;

.heruas others would reduce unavoidable waste  loads   by  altering

the design coefficient.
         •Ihe  Kroger  aairy had  a number  of waste saving features in

 Oi-.-r.tion  a, the  tine this -udy was initiated. These included:



         1.  Coolin-j tow«r with evaporative condenser and a recyle


 system.



         ?.    :,olenoids  on   air  conpreasors  and   refrigeration

        2.  I;ecovory system  for demoted milk containers.








         3.  Ice  re-tun  system.







         The   modifications  included   for  consideration  in this



 stud>  were both  those  that were water related  and those that were



 product loss  related.   Loch potential modification was considered




 in relation  to the following:







            (a)  Determination of the technical feasibility  of




                 the change.







            (b)  Significance of  the  changes in  reducing  water




                 and/or  product losses.








             (c)  Estimation  of  costs  of making  the change and



                 determination of  cost/benefit  of the change.
                 UJTUM-IINATION OF I'OSSJULi: CHANGES








         Two approaches were used initially to assess  possible  unit

operations under design end actual conditions and  (b) utilization




of tiicse coefficients to model weste loads and  interpret  these  in




tennis o£ costs.  Tlie computer model described in Appendix   D  was



used  tor  this  purpose  and  dlso to assess the  change  in waste




loads and costs that could be expected from  any   proposed  waste




savings change.








         Coefficients for Hcsi:jn and Actual Operations








         To   utilize   the  model,  it  was  necessary   to   have




coafficents for incori-orat ion into the model.   For this   purpose,




the  coefficients  ware  given  in  units  of gallons of  water  or



pounds ot  waste  characteristics  per  1000  pounds  oC  product



processed,   because  of  difficulty  of  generating  consecutive



processes with either BCD or  COD  processed.    A  second  basic



computer  program was utilized to generate coeff cients  in  common

       Yhe costs associated  with  losses under design  ;;nd  actual



conditions are pri-sentcd  in   Tables 43 to 50.








       The major cost  associated  with losses  was  product  loss,



tollof..od  Ijy  the sewur  bill,  labor,  packaging losses and energy.



Knt-rv-jy wns a minor  overall  cost,   even  though  analysis  reveals



th-jt  overt-.il  about   Silt  of  all  product  losses  followed  the



pasteurization and  cooling  of the product.    In  the   ice  cream



Jepartment,  75i  of   ttie  product  lost  followed pasteurization



cooling, storage cind  freezing.







         Labor,  which   was   more   intensive  for the  ice  cream  and



novelty  operations  was a greater  percentage  than  for other  areas




in the  i».!ijnt.








         A -jeneral rule of thumb was that the total plant loss was about



2 tints  the  product loss anC about 5 times the sewer bill.  The



lutter  would vfiry markedly from community to community   depend inrj



on   sewer charges.  The surchurges  in the  Indianapolis market  were



lower  tnan  in most  major cities.
               on observations made durinj  this  investigation,  and

Ice pops could substitute 25% acid whey  for water  without loss




of consumer acceptance.







          About  flfOGC  gallons (50% to 70".)  of the  whey  discharged



 to  the  drain  could  be used  in the plant without serious  effect on



 Duality.   Ho -ever,  legal  restrictions on the use  of acid  whey  in



 trozen  cesserts imposed  by standards of identity by the  rood and



 LTuy  Administration *oi:ld have to bo cnan.jtd before this  approach




 could be  utilized.







          Any decision about tiie  final   utilization  of   vvhey  was



 deferreu   until  the  results  of   the  pilot plant  study of yeast



 production could oe  fully assessed  and  in the  Meantime  whey would



 continue   to  be discharged  to the  municipal  treatment  plant.  In



 tuis instance,  the whey  locd mnr'.e up less than 0.38%  of  the  ECH

bacteria;  Primitive plants, 'jenerally   tree  of   pigment,   which
reproduce by dividing  in one, two or  three  planes.   They  occur  as
sin.jle  cells,  chains,  fil^nents,   well-oriented    groups   o£
amorpuous  iiicisses.     Most  bacteria  do not  require light,  but a
limited number are pho tosynthct ic and draw  upon  light for energy.
Most  bacteria  are  heterotrophic   (utilize  organic  matter for
energy and £or food growth materials),  but   few   are  autotrophic
and derive their  bodily needs from  inorganic  materials.

tAT:  Best available treatment.   Level  of  treatment  established
by  LFA .

BCT:  best conventional  treatment.   Level of treatment  which   is
to  be obtained  for  conventional  pollutants.

(20  C)   tor a specific time period (5 days).  It is expressed in



inilliirams of oxyjen utilized per liter of  liquid  waste  volume



(iiuj/1)  or in milligrams of oxygon per kilogram of solids present




(my/kg = ppm = parts per million).








L50U5:  Hve day biochemical oxyjen demand.  The most common   time




period for the measurement of a BCD.







BQOu;  The ultimate biochemical oxygon demand.  The highest  value



for  the amount of oxygen needed to oxidize  an organic  waste.








biological oxidation;   The  process whereby, through the   activity



ot   living organisms  in an  aerobic environment, organic  matter  is



convertec  to  more biologically  stable  (less outrifiable)  matter.








  biological   Treatment;    Organic   waste   treatment    in   which



bacterial    and/or    biochemical   action   is   intensified   under

or by oxidizing aqents such PS ct.lorine.
Chlorine Contact:   ." detention  basin  where  chlorine  is  diffused



through  the   treated   effluent  which  is  held  a required time to




provide  the necessary  disinfection.








Churntici  Buttermilk;   by-product resulting  from   the  churning  of



cream   into butter.  It is largely defatted cream and  its typical



composition  is 91% water,  4.5*  lactose, 1.41 nitrogenous  matter,



0.7%   ash   and  0.',*  fat.    Churned  or   "true"  buttermilk  is



distinjuished  from cultured buttermilk, which is  a  fermentation



product  of   skim  milk.  The latter  is sold in the  retail market



and  referrud  to simply as "buttermilk."

CPU (Chemical  Oxygen  Demand);    An   indirect  moasurs   of   the



biochemical  load exerted on  tl.e oxygen  assets of  a  body  of water



when organic wastes  are  introduced   into   the  water.     It  is



determined  by  the  amount of  potassium dichromate  consumed  in a



boiling mixture of chromic  and  sulfuric  acids.     Trie   amount  of



oxidizable  organic  matter   is  proportional   to   the  potassium



dichromate consumed.   Wiere   the   wastes  contain  only  readily



available  or-janic   bacterial  food   and no toxic  matter, the COD



values  can be  correlated  with UOU values obtained  from  the  sar.it:




wa s t e s .







Condensed:   The term "condensed"  as used in this report,  applies



 to  any  liquid  product which has been concentrated through  removal



 of some of  the water it  nornidlly contains, resulting  in  a  product



 wnicli  ib s'.ill in the liquid or semi-liquid rtatc.   v.hen  applied



 to ,nilK,  the  term  "condensed"  is  used  interchanged! y   with

          Cost Coefficients:  cost coefficients (C-j) for product



         salts,  purchases and disposal activities were estimated




for  desijn  purposes  using  data   from   the   Kroger   dairy.



Coefficients for actual situations were obtained from the studies




at tha Kroyer dairy.







          /•ctivity   coefficients:     the  developcment  of   the



activity  coefficients   (a-ij's)   proceeded  as   follov;s.       A



cotibist :ntl y  si'jned  convention  was  followed  in that a negative



sign was a sign Lo the activity  coefficients   for   any  activity



supplying  something to another activity;  i.e. water  supply as an



activity coefficient of 1,OCC  for the  water  supply   activity   in



row   (d)    in  Table  55.    The  unit  activity coefficients were



determined b/ exjmining  the units of activities and   making  unit



consistency  for  the  rows.   The activities  had units of  pounds




(16).







          Acceptable  water  and  sewer activities which are given in



gjllons  (cjcil).  Activity  coefficients wer«  expressed  in  pounds  per



pound  except   thu   water  uso , sewor discharge, product  loss,  BOD



discharge, suspended solids discharje  and  I-OC  discharge.    k.iter



u^a   and   sev*er discharge  activity coefficients were expressed as



-jollont.  per  thousand pounds   of  activity.     Product  loss,   HOC



discfior'je,   suspeiuied    solids   end    I-OC    <1 i sv.-h.irgc   activity
                                27!

-------
coefficients  were  expressed  pounds  per  thousands  pounds  of




activity.







          A special  case  was  used  for  the  product  transfer



coefficients  or  product  was  lost  in  the activity.  In these



cases, the transfer coefficient from that activity was  developed



by   subtracting   the   absolute  value  of  the  lost  activity



coefficient  (pounds per  thousand pounds)  divided  by  a  thousand



pounds   from  one.  For  example, in  Table 21, production activity



X-e  has  a loss  coefficient  (A-je)  which  is divided by   b,COO   and



subtracted   from  one  equals  one minus A-je over one  thousand  (1  -



A-je over 1,000). This  expression equals th* coefficient  for  the




product  from X-e  to X-g  of  A-ee.








     Model  Limitations:







            Y!i*   -nodel  is   first   limited  by the analysis method



 chosen.   Lven though  LP is a very powerful  tool  for  management to



 consider alternative  approaches tc water and waste reduction, the



 inherent limitations  of LV must be considered.  First, the use  of



 LI'  requires a linear equation for each particular combination of



 activities.  In  actual  practice, all activities in a dairy  plant



 may not always have a linear relationships.







             wcxt  the  formation of  objective  function   costs   (C-j



 values)  often   required  assumptions   to be made about projected





                                276

-------
 costs  and  depreciation.   For  tlio  purpose  of   this  study,  costs
 were  pro-rated  over  j  1.5 year depreciation.

           A major  limitation  is a lack  of  specific   information
 for  a given  plant situation  of coefficients to be applied to the
 model.   However, the utilization of best estimates available have
 been shov.n to be of  value  in  other application.

           Another  limitation  of the  model  is  a  difficulty  in
 incorporating individually a  number of small activities. Examples
 include  CIP systems, COP  systems, and water  station   uses.    If
 information  wore specifically available these activites could be
 individually  incorporated  in  the  model,  but  vould   require
 consiucroble model expansion.  They ore currently incorporated as
 i po-fion oi the coefficient of each activity using the function.

          Uairy  plant  management  in  'jcneral  may  not be  in a
