Food & Beverage

Water is a vital ingredient for the food & beverage industries — from fruits to cheeses to coffee — essential or welcomed in our everyday lives. Manufacturers need to maximize water efficiency and ensure sustainability in the supply chain.

Manufacturers are under increasing consumer and social pressure to make their operations environmentally friendly and sustainable. Food processing requires the highest quality ingredient water and generates substantial wastewater volumes. Water use efficiency and cost are usually a facility’s critical performance parameters.

Gradiant serves clients in the food & beverage industry to provide solutions and applications expertise for:

Production of consistent high-quality ingredient water
Concentrating products to reduce transport costs
Treating effluent to compliant quality for reuse or discharge
Recovering valuable by-products from wastewater streams
Maximizing water recycling and water use efficiency
