Biosolids & Energy Recovery Project
Project Objectives:
• Beneficially reuse Biosolids and Biogases produced during the treatment process.
• Manage residuals (Biosolids) at reduced costs to IRWD’s customers.
• Construct project to meet IRWD’s future Biosolids handling needs.
• Minimize environmental impacts:Drying and pelletizing reduces export truck loads by a factor of four.
• Reduces greenhouse gas effects by beneficially using pellets locally as a fertilizer or e-fuel.

Project Description:
• IRWD to construct facilities at MWRP for:
• Biosolids digestion, dewatering and drying
• Biogas management and energy recovery
• Odor control systems
• IRWD would no longer export solids to Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD).
• Project would also accept Biosolids trucked in from IRWD’s Los Alisos Water Recycling Plant (LAWRP).

Heat Drying System
• Produces a pellet suitable for local beneficial reuse
• Nitrogen for fertilizer
• Btu content for e-fuel
• Dryers in CA:
• Encina (Carlsbad)
• Sacramento
• Corona

Alt. 3 – Microturbines
Biogas Priorities:
1. Use in the micro-turbines to get SCE incentives.
2. When dryer and micro-turbines are off, use in boilers to heat digesters, if needed.
3. Excess biogas (very little) diverted to enclosed gas burner.
4. Use natural gas in the dryer.
