ElPozo
Alimentacin
a remarkable example of environmental
sustainibility
B ased in the province of Murcia in the
southeast of Spain, ElPozo Alimentacin
is a Spanish company with a 60-year track
record in the market. Today, ElPozo meat
products reach a market of over one billion
potential clients in more than 80 countries,
making it one of the leading companies in the
sector, both in Spain and internationally. Year
after year, ElPozo has increased its market
share and in 2014 it was the brand with the
highest consumption figures in Spain, with a
turnover of around 950 million.
ElPozo Alimentacin is firmly committed
to the environment and sustainable
development. Proof of this commitment is the
companys investment of over 11.5 million in
a number of wastewater treatment initiatives
and projects aimed at reducing emissions
through energy recovery.
Veolia Water Technologies (VWT) has provided
a response to these water treatment needs by
oering sustainable, ecient technological
solutions that increase process performance
4 Construction Leaders April 2017
whilst embodying the companys
commitment to the environment.
Water partners since 2003.
From process water, wastewater and
sludge treatment to energy efficiency
and water reuse.
In wastewater
In 2003, VWT was awarded a turnkey project
for the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant
(WWTP) at ElPozo Alimentacins production
facility in Alhama de Murcia. The industrial
WWTP was designed for a treatment capacity
of 6,000 m/day and 23,880 kg COD/day, a
pollution load corresponding to a population
equivalent of 200,000 inhabitants. The
treatment process consists of an activated
sludge facility including the BIO-DENIPHO
technology for the removal of organic matter,
phosphorus and nitrogen.
in process water
In 2005, VWT supplied two reverse osmosis
units with a total capacity of 4,000 m/day
for the production of water to feed the steam
boiler and the evaporative condensers, as well
as for other uses at the factory. Since these
units went into operation, VWT has also been
entrusted with the provision of technical
assistance and Hydrex chemical products
(antiscalants, products for plant cleaning
and maintenance). At the end of 2015, VWT
was awarded a further contract to supply a
2,000 m/day reverse osmosis unit to cover
additional production requirements.
for sludge treatment
In 2011, ElPozo Alimentacin once again
placed its trust in VWT for the remodeling of
the wastewater pretreatment to deal with
higher organic loading resulting from the
increase in the activity production, which
went from 8,000 to 12,000 pigs processed
per day. The work also included enlarging
the sludge line through the construction of
two 3,050 m anaerobic digesters and the
installation of a cogeneration system for
the production of 800 kW of electricity for
self-consumption at the WWTP and 400 kW
of thermal energy to heat the sludge during
the digestion process, without the need for
any other fuel. The digesters also enable a
reduction of 45% in sludge volumes, with
consequent cost savings in sludge treatment
and final disposal.
and for energy valorisation
At the end of 2014, with the aim of
maximizing the use of the biogas produced
in the anaerobic digesters, VWT undertook
the task of modifying the gas line at the
industrial WWTP to enable the excess biogas
produced at the plant to be exploited. Some
of the biogas is used to heat the sludge in
the digesters and the remainder is sent to a
new boiler to generate 5,000 kg/h of steam.
The scope of the contract also encompassed
extending the piping network, and installing
a new gas flare as well as a new biogas
desulphurization unit including VWTs
Sulfothane technology, as a preventive
measure to protect the facilities against
corrosion.
Towards a circular economy
In addition to energy valorization and
consequently, a reduction of the carbon
footprint of the factory - ElPozo Alimentacin
and VWT have also undertaken a number of
water reuse initiatives. These actions have
enabled the reduction of water consumption
per pig processed, achieving one of the lowest
ratio sector in Europe.
Veolia Water Technologies has become
the leading partner for companies which,
like ElPozo Alimentacin, are committed
to sustainable development. VWT oers
such companies solutions ranging from the
treatment of process water, wastewater and
sludge to solutions aimed at reducing water
consumption and increasing energy eciency,
in order to promote and work towards a
circular economy.
