Abstract

UPGRADING AN EXISTING ANAEROBIC DIGESTION SYSTEM TO INCREASE CAPACITY AND PRODUCE CLASS A BIOSOLIDSWhen the City of Lakeland, Florida, needed to expand the solids processing capacity at their Glendale WWTP, they opted to modify the existing anaerobic digestion system to produce Class A biosolids. The selected alternative was a proprietary two-phase anaerobic digestion process. A key feature of the process is the batch solids feed to and withdrawal from the first stage, thermophilic digester....Author(s)Michael R. LefflerH.J.
