USA Meat Processing Plant High Removals: FOG>95%,

SludgeMiner™ TSS>90%, BOD>80%
Dual zone Electro-coagulation / electro-oxidation
An example BOYDEL project in the
Reactor technology
USA meat processing industry
Flow 20,000 US gallons/d (75 m3/d)
• Very high contaminant loading
INFLUENT mg/L Treated Effluent mg/L • Strict discharge regulations:
BOD5 5,000-10,000 <500 ( >250 mg/L FOG = plant closure)
TSS 20,000-40,000 <500
• 3 stage plant start-up: 20,000 US
FOG 15,000-20,000 <250

Why SludeMiner™ provides a start-up flows and contaminant
variability
Compelling Value Proposition • Limited space available for treatment
solution
Conventional treatment options
Bio-chemical and DAF processes
• Larger tankage footprints
• Typically 40% higher OPEX and 30-40% SludgeMiner™
Lower CAPEX
• Lower and unstable removal capabilities and meat processing
TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT With success of the first commercial
SludgeMiner™; non-biological, dynamic installation of SludgeMiner™ at a US
process with <15 min. total residence time. The SludgeMiner™ was configured on this meat processing facility imminent,
