Ecological-energetic and economic aspects of water use in the production of food stuff

Abstract

This article discusses the sources, treatments and uses of water by food businesses, and the importance of maintaining a safe water supply to ensure production of safe and quality foods. The Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points system (HACCP) is a food safety management system which uses the approach of controlling critical points in food and drink production. In hazard analysis emphasis was given to events, incidents or situations that could lead to hazards being introduced into or not being removed from the water.
