Simple, cost-effective adjustments to smoker equipment prevents excessive liquid smoke loss. The company was losing 38 gallons of liquid smoke per day on its hot dog line, causing increased wastewater treatment surcharges. Now, a new blower system with air knives blows the excess liquid smoke off the baskets holding the hotdogs into a smoker holding tank. By making this simple change, Smithfield’s Kevan McCance explains how the plant saved close to $130,000 in a year by capturing the excess liquid smoke.

2018 Sustainability Excellence in Manufacturing Award, Second Place Program Category: Land O’Lakes
The company’s Kent, Ohio, facility found a better way to discard packaged butter products it couldn’t sell, such as line samples. Instead of putting products in a trash compactor, Land O’Lakes now uses an industrial shredder. As the shredder heats up, it presses melted butter through a screener and into an anaerobic digester. Micro-organisms in the digester consume the butter, producing electricity, heat and methane gas. Land O’Lakes’ Josh Becking explains how the company saves $41,000 a year and diverts 282 tons of butter from the landfill to the digester.

2018 Sustainability Excellence in Manufacturing Award, Second Place Tie in the Project Category: Campbell Soup
Campbell’s partnered with BNB Renewable and SunPower to install a 4.4MW solar system at the company’s headquarters. The project features SunPower’s rooftop, car port and ground-mount solar solutions as well as electric car charging stations. The system will supply the equivalent of 20 percent of the headquarters’ annual energy demand. Campbell signed a 20-year purchase agreement with BNB, which allows it to purchase all the electricity generated by the project at a rate lower than its current local utility electrical rate. The project was structured as a purchase power agreement, so there was no capital investment for Campbell.
