Biosolids are the biological residual, or treated sludge, from the
wastewater treatment process generated at the Wastewater Reclamation
Facility. The biosolids undergo treatment that includes gravity
thickening and anaerobic digestion before land application on city-owned
property. The Biosolids Coordinator was responsible for overseeing the
handling and reuse of over 16.8 million gallons of treated sludge (biosolids)
during 2008.
