Soluble solids in Winery wastewater include reducing sugars, ethanol, organic acids, <br /> %W solids. <br /> and other microbial fermentation products, together with soaps and detergents from <br /> `w cleanup operations. Larger suspended solids are mostly grape skins, leaves, stem and seeds. <br /> r,„ Smaller particles consist mainly of dead yeast cells and cell fragments (lees), grit, dirt, <br /> diatomaceous earth and bentonite from racking, fining, and other liquid-solid separation <br /> %W processes employed by the wine makers. The presence of organic acids generated in the <br /> %W fermentation process results in waste of low pH. Compared with many other agricultural-wastes, <br /> `.. winery wastewater tends to be low in nitrogen, oil, and fats. <br /> i. <br /> `. Another important characteristic of winery waste is the wide variability in wastewater <br /> composition. The variability depends mostly upon the season and the particular operations being <br /> �► performed at any given time. Peak wastewater strength and organic loading occur during the <br /> ` grape-crushing season(normally late August through mid-October). Also, certain winemaking <br /> operations such as cleaning crushers, pomace conveyors,presses, and fermentation tanks can <br /> generate individual waste streams of high strength.
