LWTF of the Roshen Vinnytsia Dairy Plant


Client: Roshen Vinnytsia Dairy Plant

Country Ukraine

Power: 1,300 m³/day

Operation: since 2014

As part of the construction of Roshen’s new dairy plant, UTC was entrusted with the design and construction of the wastewater treatment plant. The plant’s effluents have a high concentration of fats and oils, exhibit temporal and daily variations in discharge volume, composition, and pH, and require emergency discharges of “reject milk.” In other words, the composition varies significantly, and the COD load can exceed the daily limit by several times.

To ensure a consistent level of treatment and uninterrupted operation even during emergency discharges, UTC has implemented a six-stage treatment system. The technology is based on denitrification and aerobic treatment using a high-load MBBR reactor with immobilized biomass and a flotation unit. The design and construction period lasted 12 months. The wastewater treatment plant has been operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a year since 2014. COD removal rate: 98%.

The plant processes 600 metric tons of milk per day. The treatment facilities have a daily capacity of 1,300 cubic meters of wastewater.
The pollution levels at the outlet are below the water utility’s standards.
