Soybean Processing Wastewater in Food Industry Flooring

Soybean processing plant flooring

The challenge of managing soybean processing wastewater (commonly known as “yellow water”) has long been a pain point in food production facilities. Not only does it compromise the cleanliness of the production environment, but it also poses potential risks to food safety standards.

Water based polyurethane flooring, with its exceptional chemical resistance flooring and easy-to-clean flooring properties, effectively addresses the yellow water challenge. Its dense structure prevents liquid penetration, keeping floors dry and hygienic while maintaining a pristine food manufacturing environment.

The Ultimate Defense Against Yellow Water – Protecting Every Square Inch

JINYU PAINT® – Food-Grade Industrial Flooring
In food processing plants, environmental sustainability and health are top priorities. JINYU PAINT® water based polyurethane flooring is formulated with eco-friendly flooring materials, ensuring zero toxicity, odorless performance, and no harmful emissions—fully compliant with food industry hygiene standards. It safeguards soybean products from contamination, ensuring food-safe factory flooring and quality.

Beyond meeting basic environmental requirements, polyurethane mortar flooring resolves several critical flooring issues in soybean processing facilities:

Eliminating Yellow Water Challenges

Thanks to its superior chemical-resistant flooring properties, polyurethane mortar flooring resists corrosion from most chemicals, including aggressive organic acids (acetic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, oleic acid) and alkalis (sodium hydroxide) commonly found in food production flooring. Yellow water contains starch, proteins, isoflavones, and saponins, which often leave stubborn stains due to protein denaturation. These stains can penetrate porous surfaces, leading to roughness, discoloration, or even delamination. However, water based polyurethane flooring’s dense structure and chemical resistance flooring prevent such issues, ensuring easy maintenance flooring and long-lasting performance.

Slip-Resistant Flooring & Durability for Safety & Efficiency

Soybean processing plants require high-traffic flooring with excellent slip-resistant flooring and wear-resistant flooring properties. JINYU PAINT® waterborne polyurethane flooring features a micro-textured surface for enhanced grip, reducing slip hazards. Its outstanding abrasion-resistant flooring withstands heavy machinery and frequent operations, extending long-lasting flooring service life and reducing maintenance costs.

Fast Installation Flooring & Minimal Downtime
After application, water based polyurethane flooring dries quickly, allowing food processing facilities to resume operations with minimal disruption. Routine cleaning and maintenance are all that’s needed to preserve its appearance and functionality.

The Science Behind JINYU PAINT®’s Chemical Resistance

JINYU PAINT® water based polyurethane mortar flooring achieves its chemical-resistant flooring properties through a unique material composition and reaction mechanism.

Material Composition:

The system consists of a polyol emulsion, modified MDI curing agent, aggregates, and pigments, forming an organic-inorganic hybrid flooring material. Upon mixing, a chemical reaction creates a composite flooring that combines the flexibility of polymers with the hardness and durability of concrete.

Chemical Resistant Flooring System​

Chemical Reaction Mechanism:

  • Crosslinking Reaction: Cement hydration occurs simultaneously with polyurethane crosslinking, forming a stable internal structure that enhances high-strength flooring, impact-resistant flooring, and wear-resistant flooring properties.
  • Protective Film Formation: A tough surface layer develops, shielding against chemical erosion—including acids, alkalis, and solvents used in food sanitation flooring. This impermeable barrier prevents damage from even the most aggressive chemicals.

Superior Chemical Resistance Explained:

The combination of a robust protective film and a chemically crosslinked structure ensures outstanding resistance to organic acids, alkalis, and solvents. Its impermeable flooring and strong adhesion further enhance durability, making it ideal for harsh food industry environments.
