Project #8062, Metro Solids - Biosolids Storage  

Description:

This project will implement bio-solids stabilization, storage and utilization, to supplement the fluid bed incineration and energy recovery system that began operation in 2005. This project is part of the MWWTP Solids Processing Facility Plan.

Purpose and Justification:

Alkaline stabilization facilities were incorporated into the Solids Management Building, however storage facilities were deferred pending further development of a bio-solids management plan. This project will include a review of USEPA Class A regulations to take advantage of any technology improvements since the original Facility Plan. Major changes to the existing alkaline stabilization process are not anticipated. Biosolids haulers and other end-users will be contacted to help develop a flexible plan that leverages off-site storage options. Alkaline stabilization provides back-up solids processing capacity during peak solids loading periods and extended incinerator downtime for maintenance.
