State of the Art in the Slaughter and Animal By-products Industries

In this report the experts of the Umweltbundesamt describe processes and techniques applied in installations of the Austrian Slaughterhouses and Animal By-products Industries. The focus lies on environmentally relevant techniques and processes — either related to the consumption of energy and resources or related to emissions of pollutants. Predominantly affected by slaughtering and rendering processes is water, due to water consumption and emissions of organic pollutants in wastewater. Key parameters for wastewater emissions are COD/TOC, BOD, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, totally suspended solids and low volatile lipophilic substances. Based on assessments of the techniques applied and associated consumption and emission figures, best available techniques for the Slaughterhouses and Animal By-products Industries are described.本报告中，联邦环境署（Umweltbundesamt）的专家们阐述了奥地利屠宰场与动物副产品加工行业设施所采用的工艺与技术。报告聚焦于与环境相关的工艺与技术，涵盖能源与资源消耗、污染物排放两大范畴。受屠宰与油脂提炼工艺影响最为显著的环境介质为水体，这源于该行业的水资源消耗以及废水中有机污染物的排放。废水排放的关键监测参数包括化学需氧量/总有机碳（COD/TOC）、生化需氧量（BOD）、总氮、总磷、总悬浮固体以及低挥发性亲脂性物质。基于对所采用技术及相关消耗与排放数据的评估，本报告阐述了适用于屠宰场与动物副产品加工行业的最佳可行技术。
