Special Design-Build Project Spotlight Coming Soon: Valuable Energy Resources from the World's Largest Design-Build Solids Processing Project
Here in the Washington, DC area, the world’s largest design-build project is currently underway: a $470M Biosolids Program at the DC Water’s Blue Plains Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant (AWTP). WDBC members Brown & Caldwell lead this project, with CDM Smith and others involved.
The Biosolids Management Program (BMP) will transform DC Water’s current Class-B lime-stabilization processing system into a Class A (pathogen-free) system, which will couple thermal hydrolysis (using the CambiTM process) with anaerobic digestion. The cleaned digester biogas will then be used to power a 13-mw combined heat and power plant. The system will be the largest Class A solids processing facility in the world.
