Producing Class A Biosolids With Low-Cost, Low-Technology Treatment ProcessesAuthor(s): J. B. Farrell, D. Merrill, P. Schafer\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: IWA Publishing, United Kingdom\nImprint: IWA Publishing\nISBN-13: 9781843396932, 978-1843396932\nSynopsis\nClass A biosolids can be produced using low-cost, low-technology biosolids treatment processes including lagoon storage, air drying, and cake storage. This project reviewed the available literature and municipal agency data about these processes. This report presents design and operating guidelines distilled from the review process. It is designed for wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) managers, operators, and engineers who wish to discern whether these processes, used alone or in combination, might be practically applied at specific plants. This report also describes the [url] regulatory environment in relation to producing Class A Biosolids and defining Class A processes. It also presents a list of recommended research need.
