Minimize environmental impact of dairy production through improve the life cycle. Part 1: Pollution load from Dairy wastewater in 6 of October Industrial City.

Abstract

In this study, characterizations of wastewaters produced from Dairy products facilities were investigated. 6 th of October industrial zone has been selected as it is the biggest industrial city which includes 2000 registered companies distributed along eleven zones. Dairy industrial sector represents 12 % of total facilities (220 manufacturing facilities) .The main objective of this study is to estimate pollution load produced from dairy industry in different industrial area. Multiple Dairy products are represented such as milk, butter, cheese… etc. The analysis parameters , such as Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD5) , Total Suspended Solids (TSS), alkalinity, turbidity, color and phosphorus. Final effluents were displaying higher values of organic matter than the allowed discharge limits according to the national standards. 90 % of the load from dairy industries is mainly of BOD and COD, which is caused by Lactose concentration. In addition, Cheese whey wastewaters have increased concentrations of BOD and organic matter. In case of discharge, this wastewater, without appropriate treatment, will contaminate water bodies, reducing the lifespan of sewage networks and the efficiency of wastewater treatment plant. Egyptian government has forced exceptionally strict rules Law 93 for the year 1962 and it's Ministerial Decree 44 for the year 2000 and the Egyptian Prime Minister's law 1012 for the year 2018 for the cost of industrial waste purification. Finally dairy wastewater is heavily polluted with organic load and should be treated before discharging.

A Framework of EBRD Green Urbanism Program for Developing New Egyptian Cities by Using GIS and Remote Sensing (Case Study: Six October City)

“…According to the proposed methodology and indicators of the EBRD program, determination the quality of μg environmental assets in Six October city depends on measuring the values of four basic elements, which are (air, water bodies, water drinking and soil) as shown in the following table 4. [57,58].…”

Prediction of Biodegradability Possibility for Sewage of the Dairy Industry

“…An essential characteristic of effluents from the dairy industry is the diversity and large daily and seasonal flow fluctuations in strength, varying temperatures, and other factors. Determining the nature of the wastewater is essential when collecting and examining samples in the laboratory because the results deviate significantly from their average values, so samples should ideally be taken on good days, at varying times, at frequent intervals, and in proportion to the flows to minimize daily and seasonal [8].…”
