Notes:
Food-processing operations produce many varied types of wasteswhich include solid and liquid effluents and, to a much lesser extent,volatile organic compounds, e.g. refrigerants. Economic, legislative andsocial pressures are forcing food industries to reconsider theirattitude towards the generated effluents.
