As a winery owner, you know that the pre-harvest season is one of the busiest and most critical times of the year. Preparing your vineyard and production facilities for the intense surge in activity is essential — not only to ensure a smooth harvest but also to protect your operations from potential environmental and regulatory challenges. One often overlooked yet vital aspect of pre-harvest preparation is wastewater treatment system maintenance and bioaugmentation. Proper attention to these areas can save you significant headaches, reduce costs, and ensure compliance with evolving environmental standards. Why Pre-Harvest Maintenance Matters for Winery Wastewater Systems During harvest, wineries generate a substantial increase in wastewater volume and organic load. This wastewater comes from equipment cleaning, barrel washing, floor cleaning, and other processes. The influx of high-strength wastewater can strain your treatment system, especially if it is not in optimal condition

Businesses like wineries, breweries, and other manufacturers with high-strength wastewater streams generate specialized effluents. Since no two facilities or wastewater streams are exactly alike, they require proper treatment solutions tailored to their specific needs. Specialty Treatment Solutions (STS) is an industry leader in providing custom engineered wastewater treatment solutions for specialized commercial and industrial applications. We provide optimal wastewater treatment designed around the specifications of each client’s site and business needs while enhancing sustainability and meeting compliance standards. Why Is Custom Wastewater Treatment Important? Custom water treatment systems are crucial for effectively managing high-strength industrial wastewater streams with fluctuating loads and unique characteristics. They are designed around the specific treatment requirements, capacity needs, site layout, and sustainability goals of each facility. One-size-fits-all appro

Wineries who receive their bottles in necks down reshipper cases can automate their hand dumping operation, reduce costs, increase line speeds, and ensure a consistent bottle supply to their filler with A-B-C’s Model 49 decaser. The Model 49 accepts cases from the conveyor either back-to-back or spaced, unloads and single files the bottles, and uprights the empty cases for transfer to case packing. Bottles glide from the case to the impact-absorbing transfer belt and bottle contact is minimized with A-B-C’s unique single filing module. These features work to maintain bottle stability and protect the glass integrity. By replacing the hand dumping operation, the decaser eliminates the related risk of employee injury from repeated lifting and emptying of heavy cases. The Model 49 has special features to accommodate case size variations, including a soft roller system that utilizes an automatic tensioner to ensure smooth case transit throughout decasing. The 180- degree ca

When did you last test your wastewater discharge pH? If you have any form of wastewater being discharged, whether from manufacturing & production to cleaning & sanitizing practices – such as the wastewater coming from pressure washing your equipment and vehicles – your business may be subject to both local and State Water Board wastewater discharge regulations. Outside testing is increasing, and violators can be ‘red tagged’, which can result in having to suspend operations and potential fines. There are ways you can avoid the risk of the ‘red tag’. Through the Water Discharge Requirements Program (WDR), California State and local Water Board agencies monitor and limit the levels of industrial wastewater contaminants a facility is allowed to discharge into sewers and waterways. And part of the way they assess this is through pH testing. Acidic or Alkaline? Wastewater discharge management is about keeping untreated pollutants out of

History Drunk Turtle is a family-owned company led by the Brini family and located in Pontedera, Tuscany, Italy. The company was founded in 2014 by a group of wine industry professionals, architects, and engineers who repurposed an ancient Roman concrete recipe: "Cocciopesto" for building wine fermentation and maturation vessels called Opus. The name Drunk Turtle is derived from Italy's Slow food movement, the extremely hard shell of a turtle and the love for wine. Today The Brini family are now the sole owners of the company and are also involved in the wine industry with their family winery: Il Conventino, located in Montepulciano, Italy, and their Tuscan gin brand: Ginepraio. Through years of research and development with the University of Pisa, Drunk Turtle has perfected their Cocciopesto recipe and currently produces more than 200 Opus a year which are sold predominantly in France, Italy, and other important winemaking countries.
