What are the potential environmental impacts?
Businesses that process food and drink can have a number of impacts on the environment:
- air emissions, for example from grinding grain, bulk transfers of product and silo vents
- land contamination, for example from accidental spills of oils and the past use of the site
- noise pollution, for example from vehicle movements, grinding machinery and packaging lines
- resource use, for example water use and energy use
- waste disposal, such as out-of-date products, peelings, animal by-products and effluent plant sludge
- water discharges, for example from effluent plants, accidental spills and cooling towers.
