Getting to Zero – Realise the Carbon Reduction Potential in Biosolids with Better Digestion
How can water utility companies achieve carbon neutrality in a financially sound way?
No single solution can slash climate gas emissions in the water sector enough on its own. But one solids treatment technology, operating in combination with anaerobic digestion, in many cases comes a long way.
In the webinar, Dr. Bill Barber, Technical Director in Cambi, explains how pre-treating wastewater solids with thermal hydrolysis leverages anaerobic digestion to deliver the lowest carbon footprint irrespective of final biosolids handling route.
Adopted at 90 sites around the world, this proven and reliable technology optimises digestion assets, produces more biogas, and significantly reduces biosolids production, bringing users closer to their sustainability goals while saving on costs.
