Marel Water Treatment B.V.
About
Marel Water Treatment B.V., now operating as JBT Marel following the merger of JBT Corporation and Marel, is a Netherlands-based manufacturer specializing in industrial wastewater treatment systems for the global food processing industry. The water treatment division is headquartered in Lichtenvoorde and focuses exclusively on poultry, meat, fish and seafood, dairy, beverage, and rendering sectors. Their product portfolio spans the full treatment chain. Primary treatment includes dissolved air flotation (DAF) units for removing fats, oils, and suspended solids, alongside external and internal rotary screens and static screens for coarse solids separation, plus coagulation and flocculation chemical dosing systems. Secondary treatment covers both aerobic activated sludge systems for significant purification yield and anaerobic biological treatment suited for highly contaminated streams with minimal free fats, producing biogas as a byproduct. Tertiary treatment features the BioBrane membrane bioreactor for sludge-water separation and the Curieau reverse osmosis system for advanced purification, plus UV disinfection for final polishing. JBT Marel also enables water reuse for irrigation or industrial applications and full recycling back into factory operations. Notable installations include the Addoha Poultry facility in Saudi Arabia processing 5.4 million liters per day, Aurora Coop in Brazil, and Pronaca in Ecuador.
Key Products
Clarifies wastewater by removing suspended solids, fats, and oils using dissolved air micro-bubbles that float contaminants to the surface for skimming.
An externally-fed rotating drum screen that separates coarse solids from wastewater and process water in food processing facilities.
An internally-fed rotating drum screen that removes coarse solids from wastewater and process water, suitable for high-flow applications.
Bent wedge wire screen plates that separate coarse solids from wastewater using gravity flow without moving parts.
Chemical dosing and mixing system that removes sediment, suspended solids, and emulsified pollutants from wastewater prior to flotation or sedimentation.
Activated sludge and aerobic biological systems that significantly increase purification yield through biological degradation of organic contaminants.
Biological treatment suited for highly contaminated wastewater flows with little or no free fats, converting organic load to biogas.
Membrane bioreactor system combining biological treatment with membrane filtration for high-quality effluent separation and water reuse.
Reverse osmosis system providing one of the most efficient methods of water purification for producing reusable-quality water from treated wastewater.
Final-stage treatment removing residual impurities and pathogens to meet strict discharge or reuse water quality standards.
Integrated systems enabling treated wastewater to be reused for irrigation, industrial processes, or recycled back into factory operations replacing fresh water intake.
