Melifeed Plant Modernization

Description: Melifeed Plant Modernization Treatment, disposal and/or elimination systems for solid industrial waste The "Melifeed Plant Modernization" project, which is submitted to the Environmental Impact Assessment System (SEIA), hereinafter "the Project", is located in the commune of Melipilla, Metropolitan Region, and consists of the construction and operation of a production line, which will be in charge of processing organic derivatives from poultry slaughterhouses, modernizing the current process of the Plant. Additionally, the project considers an increase in process capacity to respond to market requirements. The HT process line will have a capacity of 3,658 tons/month for the viscera process, which will replace the current process line, and 942 tons/month for the feather process. The latter will not be modified since the current process will be able to absorb the increase in production capacity. The project considers the implementation of an odor abatement system, specific for this process line. Regarding the RILs generated by the project, the current treatment system authorized under RCA No. 209/2005 will be used, considering a decrease in the generation and load of the RILs as a result of the modernization of the production process. The objective of the project is to build and operate a Processing Line for organic derivatives from poultry slaughterhouses, modernizing the current process for viscera at the Plant.
