Abstract

The wastewater from the meat industry was treated in the system linking the processes of: coagulation, biological treatment using the activated sludge method, simultaneous precipitation of phosphor and reverse osmosis. The carried out investigation studies showed that after the simultaneous precipitation of phosphor the sewage could be returned to the natural receiving water, since its pollution ratio did not exceed the permissible values for sewage waters which can be returned to natural receiving waters. By cleaning up the wastewater in the process of reverse osmosis, it was possible to use it again in the technological cycle.
