What?s the difference between water use and consumption? Will a water reuse system help my plant? How will a water conservation program work with HACCP in my plant?
These and many other questions about water use and reuse will be answered thissummer when Meatingplace and POULTRY join forces with the University of Georgia and industryexperts for the 2008 Poultry & Meat Processing Water Conservation Workshop. We will be hosting a series of 1-day hands-on water conservation workshops specifically designed to meet the challenges in the poultry and meat processing industries.
Led by Brian Kiepper, Assistant Professor of Engineering and Poultry Science at the University of Georgia, a regional team of university researchers, technical consultants and industry experts will lead a fast-paced, energetic workshop that blends hands-on practical water conservation activities with easy-to-understand explanations of cutting edge technologies in water conservation and water reuse systems. Workshop topics will include establishing water plant balances, technical considerations and options for water reuse systems, manual methods of measuring water use, and food safety?s role in water conservation programs. The workshopswill also feature case studies by poultry and meat processing plant personnel pointing out the successes and potential pitfall of water conservation activities.
