Adaptable solutions for all Food & Beverage players
Veolia Water Technologies has a keen sense of the needs and concerns of the Food & Beverage world. Although not the most water-intensive industry, it is one of its first users and water quality is a crucial issue for this sector – water purity must be at the right level so as not to alter the characteristics of the food products.
Water is found in all components: from raw materials to cooling systems, as well as sanitary installations.
- Water as a food ingredient (process water)
The water cycle is at the heart of our business and technologies. Process water is likely to come into contact with food products. Veolia Water Technologies' water meets all the criteria for potability and chemical analysis. - Water for industrial use (service water supply)
Our technologies guarantee additional water production to supply the boilers and cooling towers. The water supplied by Veolia Water Technologies complies with all safety requirements. - Wastewater treatment
Recycling water, reducing sludge and biogas production are among the main challenges facing the Food & Beverage industry. Veolia Water Technologies' solutions ensure efficient and compliant treatments. - Treatment and recovery of fats, sludges and derived products
The food industry is characterised by effluents loaded with fats and organic matter. Going beyond simply updating waste disposal procedures, Veolia Water Technologies offers solutions that find value in the by-products of the Food & Beverage business. - Recovery, recycling and reuse of water
Veolia Water Technologies ensures the sustainable use of water. This is particularly important for certain Food & Beverage players, such as poultry and greenhouse farmers. The use of our membrane processes for water treatment greatly extends the water cycle.
