- A thorough review of advancement in slaughterhouse wastewater characteristics, treatment of wastewater in the meat processing industry is presented. This study also provides a general review of the environmental impacts, health effects, and regulatory frameworks relevant to the slaughterhouse wastewater management. Slaughterhouse wastewater contains various and high amounts of organic matter (e.g., proteins, blood, fat and lard). In order to produce an effluent suitable for stream discharge, sedimentation, chemical coagulation & filtration techniques have been particularly explored at the laboratory pilot scale for organic compounds removal from slaughterhouse effluent. The purpose of this work was to investigate the feasibility of treating cattle-slaughterhouse wastewater by sedimentation, chemical coagulation & filtration. The rate of removal of pollutants linearly increased with increasing doses of PACl. COD and BOD5 removal of more than 79%, 84%, 90% was obtained by adding 100 mg/L PACl. The experiments demonstrated the effectiveness of techniques used for the treatment of slaughterhouse wastewaters. This review also facilitates a better understanding of current difficulties that can be found during management of the SWW, including treatment and characteristics of the final effluent.
