VOLUMES
Processing Line Wastewater (80%)
Processing Wastewater Sources

Processing Wastewater Sources
Clean Up Water (7%)
Transfer Area Runoff (3%)

Harvest Bloodwater (10%)
Industry average is ~ 6 litres of wastewater

generated per kg of salmon processed.

CHARACTERISTICS
BOD - can range from 1500 mg/l (multi-source

wastewater) to 6000 mg/l (harvest bloodwater).
TSS - can range from 500 mg/l (multi-source

wastewater) to 1500 mg/l (harvest bloodwater).
FOG - can range from 100 mg/l (multi-source

wastewater) to 1500 mg/l (harvest bloodwater)..
Salinity - depends upon processing water source.
Temperature - typically < 10 C.
Disease - varies from region to region (ie. ISA, IPN, etc.).

MAJOR PROCESS STEPS IN PROCESS FLOW
Collection
Filtration
Equalization
Pretreatment
Separation

COLLECTION
All processing wastewater sources directed
to a common collection point.
Typical common collection point is a concrete
sump equipped with submersible pump that is
capable of handling heavy solids loading.

FILTRATION
Microscreen belt filter for primary treatment.
Removes suspended solids larger than 350

microns in particle size.
Reduces BOD, TSS, and FOG by up to 50%.

EQUALIZATION
Primary storage tank - typically sized to hold
total volume of processing wastewater generated
one processing day.
in
Recirculation or aeration employed to continuously

tank contents.
Accommodates batch processing and eliminates
processing wastewater variability as a factor when
operating as a flow through treatment system.
mix

PRETREATMENT :
proses pisah dgn proses fisika atau kimia
Introduction of dissolved air.
Addition of chemicals:
Coagulation
Flocculation
pH adjustment
All chemical addition and mixing prior to

separation.

SEPARATION
Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF).
Fine bubbles float precipitated particles to

surface where they are skimmed off.
Further reduces BOD, TSS and FOG.
Well proven technology for meeting effluent

quality regulations.

MAJOR PROCESS STEPS IN PROCESS FLOW
Collection
Filtration
Equalization
Chlorination
Dechlorination

COLLECTION / FILTRATION / EQUALIZATION
Identical to steps already covered under
Processing Wastewater Treatment.

CHLORINATION
Accredited by the National Veterinary Institute of
Norway to kill ISA and other viruses.
Disinfection dosage typically 50 ppm.
Disinfection contact time typically 15 minutes.
ORP used to monitor and control disinfection

process.

DECHLORINATION
Required in most jurisdictions through
environmental protection legislation.
Dechlorination to < 0.5 ppm chlorine residual
typically required.
Dechlorination chemical is injected in-line as
disinfection tank is discharged.
THINGS TO LOOK FOR WHEN SELECTING A SYSTEM
Integration
Automation
Flexibility
Reliability
Affordability
INTEGRATION
If a processing wastewater treatment
system is installed, it should be designed to
integrate disinfection as an add-in component
at a later date.
If a processing wastewater disinfection
system is installed, it should be designed to
integrate treatment as an add-in
component
at a later date.
AUTOMATION
The system should be PLC based for
maximum automation, control and
monitoring capability.
All critical operating information should be
recorded by a data logger for troubleshooting,
performance and regulatory compliance
purposes.
The system should be equipped with a
modem and dedicated phone line for remote
access to monitor and control its operation.
FLEXIBILITY
System should be flexible to accommodate
new discharge restrictions and/or biosecurity
concerns with minimal modifications.
System layout should be flexible to
accommodate existing spaces where
necessary.
System chemical requirements should have
some flexibility to accommodate local
constraints related to cost and availability.
RELIABILITY
All equipment and components should be
designed and selected for continuous
operation
in an industrial wastewater treatment environment.
The system should be designed to facilitate
regular maintenance and minimize down-time
when repairs are required.
Reliable service is as important as a reliable

system - system suppliers must be able to
provide dependable after-sale support.
AFFORDABILITY
Capital cost dependant upon:
Treatment requirements
Disinfection requirements
System flow capacity requirements
Site specifics.
Chemical Operating Cost Estimates:
Treatment : < $ 0.005 / US gallon

Disinfection : < $ 0.002 / US gallon
RECAP
Processing wastewater from all sources should
be minimized to reduce both capital and
operating
costs.
Salmon processing wastewater presents unique
challenges that must be taken into consideration
when designing a treatment or disinfection
system.
Processing wastewater treatment is designed to
reduce levels of BOD, TSS, and FOG to
below
regulated discharge requirements.
RECAP
Processing wastewater disinfection is designed
to kill disease causing bacteria and viruses prior to
discharge.
Processing wastewater treatment and
disinfection can be integrated into one complete
system that addresses both regulated water
quality
parameters and biosecurity.
A quality system for processing wastewater
treatment and/or disinfection should be
automated, flexible, reliable, and affordable.
