The organic pollutants released from the milk processing units in dairy industries are considered a major source of environmental pollution which creates havoc in the human flora of the world. The dairy wastewater is rich in organic nutrients, fats and oils which becomes an appropriate medium for the growth of several microorganisms. So the direct discharge of dairy wastewater on the agricultur...

Wastewater from dairy industries, characterized by its high COD content and relative high COD/TKN ratio, requires post-treatment after anaerobic treatment to complete the removal of organic matter and nutrients. Due to its simplicity, robustness and low maintenance costs, sequencing batch reactors (SBR) result in an attractive system, especially in case of small dairy industries in order to com...

5 INTroDuCTIoN Global markets have been critically important to Irish agriculture for some years. In these, but also in domestic markets, competition will intensify as a result of ongoing moves towards liberalisation of international trade. In this setting, Irish agricultural product cannot hope to compete on price alone, and quality will become increasingly important to Ireland’s ability to su...

Industrialized dairy production in the U.S. relies on an immigrant, primarily Latino/a, workforce to meet greater production demands. Given the high rates of injuries and illnesses on U.S. dairies, there is pressing need to develop culturally appropriate training to promote safe practices among immigrant, Latino/a dairy workers. To date, there have been few published research articles or guidel...

The milk processing industry is one of the world's staple industries, thus the treatment possibilities of dairy effluents have been attracting more and more attention. The purpose of the paper is to review contemporary research on dairy wastewater. The origin, categories, as well as liquid by-products and general indicators of real dairy wastewater are described. Different procedures applied fo...

Milk proteolysis caused by Pseudomonas fluorescens is a serious problem in the dairy industries as a result of its ability to grow under refrigeration. The use of phages to control contaminants in food has been considered an alternative to traditional methods; therefore, a thorough understanding of such organisms is vital for their use. In this study, we show the complete genome sequence and an...

In today world, organizations’ performance and making the sustainable competitive strength have become incrementally important for them according to the quick global evolutions. The dairy industry is one of the most important industries which has made very competitive environment. The case study of this research is Kaleh Dairy Company as one of the active companies in dairy industries. One of t...

New Zealand’s beef industry produces approximately 580,000 tonnes of beef per year, about 80% of which is exported, with approximately 70% of this beef destined for the North American manufacturing market. Around 65% of beef cattle originate from the dairy industry. Beef cows produce 1.1 million calves (killed as heifers or steers) per year for the prime beef market. In addition, 0.4 to 0.6 mil...

Heat stress (HS) negatively affects various industries that rely on animal husbandry, particularly the dairy industry. A better understanding of metabolic responses in HS dairy cows is necessary to elucidate the physiological mechanisms of HS and offer a new perspective for future research. In this paper, we review the current knowledge of responses of body metabolism (lipid, carbohydrate, and ...

Dairy industries have shown tremendous growth in size and number in most countries of the world. These industries discharge wastewater which is characterized by high chemical oxygen demand, biological oxygen demand, nutrients, and organic and inorganic contents. Such wastewaters, if discharged without proper treatment, severely pollute receiving water bodies. For treatment of dairy waste water,...
