Identification and Valuation of Innovative Wastewater Residual Products Beyond Conventional Biosolids

This project will identify non-traditional biosolids end products that result from innovative treatment technologies, including biochars, mineral ashes, biocrude, and characterize their distribution markets, greenhouse gas (GHG) impacts, economic value, and barriers to entry. Its outputs will help utilities evaluate emerging solids treatment technologies with respect to the relative costs and benefits of their end products.
