Biosolids company NuTerra has broken ground on an organics recycling facility in Haines, City, Florida, that will turn the waste into compost for lawns, athletic fields, golf courses and agriculture.

Waste Management World reports phase one of the project began in 2012 with a Class AA/EQ product by upgrading wastewater treatment from aerobic digestion to BCR Environmental’s Neutralizer system.

The system helped the city avoid capital expenditures of $2.75 million for digester rehabilitation and dewatering equipment, reduce annual biosolids treatment and disposition costs by about $133,000 for 20 years and cut energy costs for biosolids treatment by about 97 percent.

NuTerra designed the new facility and will build, operate, and maintain it at the wastewater treatment plant’s property site.
