Abstract

Poultry processing is a typical agro-industry generating a strong wastewater in terms of organics, solids and nitrogen contents and significant amount of solid waste. Crude approaches in the past have often resulted in mixing of the two waste streams and which have resulted in serious treatment and disposal problems. Nowadays, poultry processing requires, like all other agro-industries, an integrated approach in waste management. This approach enables an in-depth look at the processes involved and provides a better perspective for critical issues such as water minimization, waste reclamation and recycling and optimization of treatment and disposal.
