Innovative plan for cocomposting

Article Abstract:

Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH, initiated an innovative program to compost solid waste and municipal biosolids. College officials collaborated with the city's Zoning and Select Boards and Resource Optimization Technologies (ROT) to develop a comprehensive compost operation that involves collection of food residuals from Dartmouth's residence halls and from homes. ROT provided the building, equipment and management of the composting facility. Garbage hauler Casella Waste Management was also contracted to participate in the project.

Best strategies for biosolids

Article Abstract:

The composting of biosolids in Columbus, OH, was started in 1980. The biosolids are dewatered to a 22% average of total solids before they are transported by truck to the treatment facility. The recovered water is also put to good use. The process allows the city to market composted biosolids into a product called Com-Til, which has proven to be very cost effective for the city.
