The Water Challenge

The on-site bores supplying water to the cattle and dairy shed pose challenges due to elevated levels of iron, manganese, and bacteria.

Addressing these issues on a dairy farm can yield various benefits:

  • Enhanced Milk Production: Prevention of reduced water consumption by cattle can increase milk production (Beede, 2006).
  • Reduced Maintenance Costs: Mitigation of fouling in pipes, equipment failures (e.g., hot water cylinders), and decreased chemical usage.
  • Compliance Assurance: Avoidance of penalties related to failed compliance testing for turbidity, bacteria, etc.

Application

It is well-established that poor-quality drinking water diminishes herd consumption, leading to a decline in milk production and overall profitability.

The Solution

Puretec implemented the NTS Series and aeration for pH correction, facilitating iron and manganese removal with the IRX Series. Ultraviolet disinfection, following final cartridge filtration, ensures chemical-free and microbiologically safe water for the cow shed.

For this farm, Puretec’s treatment system is chemical-free and salt-free, resulting in:

  • Reduced Maintenance: Less system maintenance.
  • Lower Operating Costs: Lower overall operating costs.
  • Best-in-Class Efficiency: Demonstrates best-in-class efficiency.

Farm Details:

  • Herd Size: 600
  • Approximate Budget: $35K
