Why Treatment of Biosolids?

1. Treatment of biosolids by composting or biodrying result in fast drying of the material and ensures a safe hygienisation.
2. Valuable plant nutrients are not wasted and the compost created is homogeneous and suitable for storage. The lower moisture content and volume mean that the cost of transportation to the plant is reduced considerably.
3. Compost made of sewage sludge is a stabilised organic fertilizer with an average nutrient content which can release the contained nutrients evenly and has a positive influence on the humus balance. Crops fertilized with compost are more healthy then that fertilized with chemical fertilizer and underground water is not polluted.
4. Dried sewage sludge is a pourable substitute fuel with a low to medium fuel value, that is used in power plants and cement factories.
