Food & Beverage Processing

The Anguil Advantage

Anguil’s experience in this industry provides reliable solutions for your emission control and wastewater treatment challenges. We have worked on a wide range of applications:

• Achieving a high destruction level of ethanol from bakery ovens
• Chaff and particulate from coffee roasting
• Efficiently destroying grease from frying and rendering operations
• Handling smokehouse emissions
• Maintaining required opacity and odor levels from confectionery and gum manufacturing.

For instance, Anguil’s air pollution control solutions for bakeries focus on feeding multiple oven exhausts into a single control device without affecting the “bake.” We have experience with both direct and indirect fired ovens and the engineering implications of handling the exhaust from each. In many cases, Anguil’s detailed process analysis of hood exhaust has saved companies tens of thousands of dollars.  Our Catalytic Recuperative Oxidizers and Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer are very popular with baking operations.

On many applications within the food industry, we recommend stainless steel construction to combat corrosion issues associated with high humidity from many of the processes.  When dealing with high levels of grease, oil and particulate we can utilize our patented Self-Cleaning Ceramic Filter (SCCF) in conjunction with an oxidizer or as a stand-alone pollution control device.

On the water side, you may be struggling with rising Publicly Operated Treatment Works (POTWs) surcharges and aging systems and workforce. Anguil’s four-step approach to industrial wastewater treatment challenges can help producers address economical, operational and compliance challenges. Anguil specializes in cost-effective, optimized treatment trains that target a variety of challenging contaminants, from Total Suspended Solids to Fats/Oils/Solids to Acidic Water discharge. We don’t simply provide products – we partner with you to design an integrated, robust, and effective treatment train.

System Solutions

We custom engineer each solution, but Anguil finds the following technologies to be especially effective for Food and Beverage industry applications:

• Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO)
• Catalytic Recuperative Oxidizer (Catox)
• Self-Cleaning Ceramic Filter
• Industrial Wastewater Treatment
