1. Introduction

This document comprises the Rosderra Irish Meats Annual Environmental

Report for the site located at Edenderry, Co. Offaly (P0180-02) and covers the

operations at the site during 2016.

Rosderra Irish Meats is a privately owned company which has its registered

head office in Edenderry Co. Offaly. The site at Edenderry was originally built

in 1990 by Master Pork and officially opened in 1991 as Master Pork. In 1992,

Avonmore Foods Plc. acquired Master Pork and the Edenderry facility became

part of the Avonmore Pigmeat business, known as Irish Country Meats.

Following a merger between Avonmore Plc. and Waterford Foods Plc. the

Edenderry facility came under control of the newly formed Glanbia Meats Ltd.

Following a management buy-out in March 2008, the company changed its

name to Rosderra Irish Meats Group.

On October 1st 2008, Rosderra Irish Meats had its IPPC Licence Transfer

Request Approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), for Licence

No. P0180-02.

Rosderra Irish Meats, Edenderry operates a state of the art pig slaughtering and

processing facility. The site processes involves cutting and boning of pork with

a packing area, despatch area with loading bays also on site.

In February 2014 Rosderra Irish Meats became the 40th verified member of the

Bord Bia Origin Green Sustainability Programme, being the first pork processor

in Ireland to do so. At the heart of Origin Green is a plan which encourages

food companies to engage directly with the challenges of sustainability;

reducing energy inputs, minimizing carbon footprint and lessening the overall

impact on the environment.

Rosderra Irish Meats have highlighted 4 target areas for reduction as part of its

Origin Green Sustainability Programme:

P0180-02 2016 AER, March 2017

Energy

CO2 emissions

Water

Waste

In 2017 Rosderra will launch phase two of its Origin Green Programme, the

next three year programme. Phase two will focus on similar targets as phase

one, but will also include more social sustainability targets and initiatives with

employees but also with local communities

One of our Core Values as a company is “Continuous Improvement In

Everything We Do”. Rosderra apply this principal to all aspects of our business,

including Environmental Management and Sustainability. Being a verified

member of Origin Green further proves Rosderra Irish Meats Group's

commitment to conducting its business in a manner consistent with protecting

the environment.

The primary environmental emissions at the plant relate to the discharge of

treated wastewater and the generation of organic waste as sludge from the onsite

wastewater treatment plant. Environmental management on site is achieved

through a structured Environmental Management System (EMS), combined

with its Origin Green Sustainability plans and targets.

3. Waste Management Record

In 2015 Rosderra Irish Meats, as part of our Origin Green Waste Management

initiative, launched a company-wide segregation and recycling programme in an

effort to reduce the volume of waste going to landfill and to increase the

percentage of waste in which we send to recycling and recovery facilities.

Through hard work, determination and co-operation with our waste contractor,

Rosderra Irish Meats Edenderry was certified by Greyhound Commercial as

having “Zero Waste to Landfill Status”.

100% of all non-recyclable General Waste collected onsite is now sent to

Greyhound facility at Crag Avenue, Clondalkin Industiral Estate, Dublin 22 and

is destined to be processed as Refuse Derived Fuel.

For 2017, we are planning to further expand and improve on our Waste

Management Programme, by looking towards Waste Minimisation. We are

working with our suppliers to reduce unnecessary waste packaging coming to

site. We are also planning to review resources on site to ensure they are

effectively and efficiently utilised to minimise the volumes of waste which we

generate on site.

For 2017 we are investigating further waste segregation opportunities, in the

hope of reducing the level of General Waste leaving the site.

In 2017 Rosderra will launch phase two of its Origin Green Programme, the

next three year programme. In phase two we hope to build upon the success of

the Waste Management Programme adopted during phase one.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

A biofiltration installation utilising Mónashell media and biofiltration process was installed,

inoculated and commissioned by Bord na Móna Environmental Ltd. at the Rosderra Meats facility,

Edenderry.

The MONASHELL odour control unit at Rosderra Meats – Edenderry was installed and

commissioned in July 2004. The odour control unit was emptied of spent media and refilled with

fresh shell media in October 2006, August 2009, April 2011, June 2013, May 2015 and March

2016. This unit is treating air from the DAF unit and the balance tank. The total design airflow rate

is 2,500 m3/hr.

In order to ensure the correct performance of this unit Rosderra Meats requested a Health Check

be conducted on the biofilter.

This report contains the results of the Health Check conducted on the unit on 25th May 2016.

5.0 DISCUSSION

At the time of the visit the loading on the Biofilter was normal as per Table 3.1, Colourmetric tubes

could not detect Total mercaptan and Dimethyl sulphide concentrations at the lowest limits of

detection. The system is operating slightly below its design loading of 2,500 m3/hr. Gas stream

analysis indicates that Hydrogen sulphide and Ammonia is being reduced across the unit, therefore

sufficient abatement is occurring across the unit of each parameter measured.

Bulk density analysis also indicates that the media is in good condition. Volumetric flow needs to be

maintained to the design criteria to insure appropriate pollutants feed onto the media.

Shells appear in good condition, they are saturated and not noticeably solidifying. The sprinklers were

in responsible condition however they need to be cleaned on an ongoing basis to ensure a sufficient

even spray covering the entire media surface. The height of the media from the roof in is average

0.30m to 0.35m. Media is usually replaced once the height from the roof reaches 1.2m, or has

degraded to such an extent it is not treating the air stream or in general after seven years.

Maintaining the air flows to the design criteria and ensuring that the media is properly moistened by

the sprinkler system should maintain the CFU count and ensure that sufficient pollutants are present

to feed microorganisms in the media. Currently the CFU count is in excellent condition.

Drain water analysis results can be viewed in table 3.4 above. pH levels were measured to be 7.7.

Calcium carbonate present in the shells generally help neutralise the pH of the sump water. BOD

concentrations were measured to be <2 mg/l O2 which is within expected levels.. COD levels were

27 mg/l O2. Ammonia was present in low levels and inorganic sulphates were measured at a

concentration of 691 mg/l.

.

6.0 RECOMMENDATIONS:

Continue to check ductwork/Inspection Hatches regularly for any air ingress.

Continue to check irrigation system regularly to ensure the media is kept moist.

Continue to check nozzles daily and clean as required.

Continue to clean strainers on a weekly basis and replace as necessary.

Continue to operate as per the O & M Manual.

Continue to carry out Health Check every 6 months to ensure correct operation as per

current practices.

5.0 DISCUSSION

At the time of the visit the loading on the Biofilter was high as per Table 3.1, Colourmetric tubes could

not detect Ammonia concentrations at the lowest limits of detection. The system is operating below

its design loading of 2,500 m3/hr. Gas stream analysis indicates that Hydrogen sulphide and Dimethyl

sulphide were above the methods limits of detection in the inlet works. However despite this,

significant abatement is occurring (>91 – >99%). Total Mercaptans were detected at 15ppm in the

inlet and 5ppm in the outlet which signifies >66% abatement.

Bulk density analysis indicates that the media is in good condition. Volumetric flow needs to be

maintained to the design criteria to insure appropriate pollutants feed onto the media.

Shells appear in good condition, they were wet in appearance and not noticeably solidifying. The

sprinklers were in good condition however they need to be cleaned on an ongoing basis to ensure a

sufficient even spray covering the entire media surface. The height of the media from the roof in is

average 0.30m to 0.35m. Media is usually replaced once the height from the roof reaches 1.2m, or

has degraded to such an extent it is not treating the air stream or in general after seven years.

Maintaining the air flows to the design criteria and ensuring that the media is properly moistened by

the sprinkler system should maintain the CFU count and ensure that sufficient pollutants are present

to feed microorganisms in the media. Currently the CFU count is in excellent condition.

Drain water analysis results can be viewed in table 3.4 above. pH levels were measured to be 6.9.

Calcium carbonate present in the shells generally help neutralise the pH of the sump water. BOD

concentrations were measured to be <2 mg/l O2 which is within expected levels. COD levels were

<10 mg/l O2. Ammonia was present in low levels and inorganic sulphates were measured at a
