Whey is a useful by product of this industry. This can be easily concentrated in an evaporator, or spray dryer, and sold to other food processors as well as the old reliable stand by, Pig farmers who already use this by-product as a fertilizer on calcium and acid loving plants, as well as feed supplement. This is the same problem as always with greed as a motivator. nobody planned ahead in the rush to get this plant running. (I'm so happy I didn't take the job their.) I can guess what "Fires" their poor Maintenance crew has to Put out on a daily basis. I work for greedy Idiots just like this, (but I digress.). This is what Happens to a "Garage Business" when they grow too fast. They assume their Just in a bigger Garage! and fail to see their in with the Big leagues. and without a fire like this (DU) under their asses they would not be in a rush to solve it.
