The Washington, DC area is becoming a hub of advanced wastewater handling, including anaerobic digestion. ABC member Cambi has just announced their agreement to deliver a thermal hydrolysis plant to the Washington Suburban Sanitation Commission’s (WSSC) Piscataway Bioenergy Project. The new plant will be located 20 kilometres south of the DC Water site and treat sewage sludge from five wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) in the Montgomery and Prince George’s counties in Maryland, US.
