Methods of computing the BOD load on an effluent plant from the volume, milk content and BOD strength of dairy waste waters are discussed. Sources of milk wastage associated with various operations within the dairy and their contribution to the polluting load are given. Practical procedures are described for identification of sources of milk losses, sampling and testing of volume and strength of individual components and of the final effluent; procedures for reducing milk wastage are suggested. New systems of segregating dairy wastes are proposed.
