Poultry Process Water Re-use System

AWPI’s Process Water Re-use system for commercial poultry production is greener, safer and more economical (see case study at bottom) than other systems. Our patented technology uses a four-stage ozone (rather than chlorine) process to purify and remove solids, BODs and CODs from process water.

Better than chlorine
Ozone is a powerful antimicrobial agent with many advantages over chlorine:

  • None of the storage costs or hazards associated with chlorine: ozone is generated onsite, has a very short half-life, and breaks down into normal, diatomic oxygen.
  • Stronger antimicrobial power: ozone kills pathogens 3,000 times faster than chlorine.

Even beyond the many advantages of ozone, our system saves you money in other ways:

  • Our ozone system reclaims up 30 to 40 percent more water for reuse (USDA approved for food contact) at more points of use than screen and chlorinating systems, which reduces your incoming water costs. This also helps keep you in compliance with new water use restrictions being imposed by many cities.
  • It allows you to expand your operation by lowering your waste water volume and reducing BODs and CODs in the water.
  • It reduces system errors by showing performance events and trends (see Fig. 1), even signaling operators when a problem occurs. This control panel can also be viewed–and the system can be controlled–from a supervisor’s office or from anywhere in the world, via internet (see Fig. 2).
  • It improves the quality and safety of your poultry product by replacing chlorine with ozone as the antimicrobial agent.
