The Best in Mexican Cuisine That Needed The Best in Biological Waste Treatment

Del Real Foods is known for its commitment to quality which extends to every part of their operation. When their facility faced a mounting waste crisis, they looked for a sustainable way to fix the problem and maintain their high standards of compliance.

The facility was producing 10,000–12,000 gallons of heavy, sludge-like waste every week -- with a slop tank that wasn't able to be fully pumped down in years -- creating a massive burden on the maintenance team and the plant's infrastructure. They needed a quality solution and fast.

This search led them to our team at AMS, where we partnered to implement a biological program that restored their system’s health, maintained compliance, and protected their bottom line.

The Challenges Del Real Faced

Del Real Foods was struggling with a waste system that simply couldn't keep up with production. The heavy, sludge-like waste created a bottleneck that impacted the entire operation.

  • Producing 10,000–12,000 gallons of heavy sludge every week

  • High-viscosity waste reduced treatment efficiency and put immense pressure on pumps and infrastructure

  • The sheer volume of waste required constant, expensive hauling



The Challenges Del Real Faced

The Solution: BioBlend Max Biological Treatment

We put our BioBlend Max product to work in order to treat the waste at the source without requiring any plant shutdowns or equipment upgrades.

  • Introduced two gallons of BioBlend Max daily, paired with a weekly nutrient supplement

  • Targeted solids directly to break them down, thinning the viscosity of the waste for better circulation

  • Improved performance using existing equipment, avoiding the need for costly mechanical interventions

The solution

Long-term Savings and Improved Efficiency in Partnership Together

The results were immediate and measurable, transforming the facility’s waste management from a cost-sink into an efficient, reliable, and fully-compliant process.
