Estimation of water consumption and waste water amount in breweries and malt plants.Peer-reviewed article

V. POSPÍŠIL

The article deals with the specific consumption of water in breweries and malt plants, amount of waste water and degree of its pollution. The figures indicated in the article are limit values based upon measurements in many breweries and malt plants. They may be very useful for planning water supply systems and sewage works. The method suggested in the article, i. e. specific values, eliminates many discrepancies resulting from application of unreliable figures taken from literature. Authorities responsible for preventing water pollution will also appreciate new methods of determining the pollution intensity as more reliable.
