In the food and beverage industry there is a high demand for hygiene and water treatment in order to maintain high quality end product standards and prolong shelf life. Industrial food and beverage facilities test impurities in their production water and verify the efficiency of sterilization solutions to ensure that all process water consumed remains suitable for use in their production processes.
Beverage manufacturers and processors face unique challenges in the area of water treatment. Water sources, disinfection processes and treatment residuals can affect the taste and quality of the final product. Soft drink production starts with a pure source of water. Drinking water often includes trace amounts of various ions that alter its taste. Bottlers use filtering and other treatment equipment to remove residual impurities and standardize the water used to make soft drinks.
Fresh products facilities face significant financial losses due to decay as fresh produce from producer to consumer. Organisms that are prevalent in the fields where produce is grown can spread during and after harvest through subsequent handling. Therefore, sanitizers are typically added to fruits and vegetables to reduce the likelihood if organism infection.
