Brewing confidence in reuse (IAPMO magazine)
Epic Cleantec’s recycled water beers were featured in IAPMO magazine. Thanks to Mike Flenniken for highlighting our Laundry Club Kölsch and Shower Hour IPA.
“Epic utilizes a multi-barrier water treatment process that includes membrane bioreactor (MBR) filtration — a biological treatment process combined with an ultrafiltration membrane (membranes with a nominal pore diameter of approximately 0.04 microns) — to capture particles and organisms. The water then undergoes additional purification and polishing steps, including granular activated carbon filtration and multiple stages of disinfection using ultraviolet light and chlorine. For certain applications, including this project, additional treatment such as reverse osmosis is used to further refine water quality. The purified water was collected in potable water totes and transported via truck to the brewing facility.”
