Case Study: Brewery Wastewater, Littleton, Colorado
![problem-icon-white](https://astfilters.com/wastewater/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2022/10/problem-icon-white.png)
The Problem:
The process of brewing beer results in a waste high in BOD/COD & TSS. Municipalities can become overwhelmed with the amount BOD/COD & TSS coming in, which results in a surcharge to breweries that discharge their waste above a set threshold.

The Solution:
AST designed a compact wastewater solution that combines aerobicbiological treatment with solids capturing to efficiently target the BOD/COD & TSS found in brewery waste,
and even reduces water loss up to 99% compared to similar technologies.
