They were extremely satisfied with the performance of this high precision metering system. For more information click here.
Elevating CIP with Real-Time Water Quality Monitoring
Within the food and beverage industry, CIP (Cleaning-In-Place) is widely used for the sterilization of process equipment to reduce the risk of bacterial growth within the pipe network and maintain quality control. Powerful disinfectants such as Hydrogen Peroxide and Peracetic Acid are routinely used within CIP applications and are a leading factor in the overall effectiveness of cleaning cycles. With the ability to accurately dose and control sterilant levels to improve process and system efficiency, water quality monitoring technology is integral to modern CIP systems.
Forming part of the BlueEdge portfolio, the Q-Series range of water quality monitors offer fully scalable solutions for CIP applications. The Q46/85 Peracetic Acid monitor and the Q46/84 Hydrogen Peroxide monitor use electro-chemical sensing technology to control a continuous dose of sterilant during the CIP process and provide continuous measurement of chemical concentration. Historically, cleaning pipework was a time consuming and expensive process that required long periods of downtime and large quantities of chemical sterilant. However, when integrated into a CIP system, these leading-edge monitors significantly improve efficiency by reducing both operational cost and maintenance requirements. Continue reading here.
Powering Compliance with Intelligent Process Optimization
An ever-increasing focus on the control and reduction of water-based pollutants means that more frequently, industrial wastewater treatment plants are looking to optimize and improve their processes so that final effluent complies with stringent regulatory standards as it re-enters the water cycle. Advanced real-time effluent measurement technology from Badger Meter provides robust, reliable monitoring of wastewater parameters such as COD, TOC, BOD and TSS, delivering dependable solutions for proactive management that are easy to install and simple to maintain.
When the family-owned Oettinger Brewery required a system to monitor COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand), they turned to Badger Meter for a solution. Regulatory changes to discharge limits necessitated a real-time monitoring system. With the installation of the spectro::lyser Industrial ATEX and the con::cube V3 terminal controller, they were able to improve accuracy, streamline operating costs, achieve process optimization and reduce their pollutant load.

Innovative Gas Detection Solutions for a Safer and Smarter Future
Gas detection in the food and beverage industry is crucial for worker safety, product quality, and regulatory compliance. Utilizing fixed and portable gas detectors in refrigeration, carbonation and packing areas can detect harmful gases such as ammonia, carbon dioxide and hydrogen peroxide, helping to prevent accidents and explosions. Badger Meter specializes in gas monitoring and sensor manufacturing and offers a range of leading-edge gas detection solutions for the food, beverage industry. From hand-held devices to customized, multi-gas fixed detection systems, our portfolio delivers state-of-the-art solutions designed to monitor and detect the presence of over 60 potentially harmful gases and vapors in the working environment.
The integration of our F12D Toxic Gas Detector and our D12Ex-IR Infrared Gas Transmitter enabled one leading global soft drinks manufacturer to make significant improvements to their onsite health and safety. Through the accurate monitoring of CO² and oxygen depletion during the bottling process they created a safe working environment while maintaining compliance with regulatory guidelines.
