In Canada, Anaergia announced it has made a strategic investment in a large-scale biosolids processing facility located in the City of Rialto, California. Having acquired the infrastructure and assets of the $160 million facility previously owned by EnerTech Environmental, Anaergia plans to improve efficiencies, upgrade technologies and create a state-of-the-art organics processing facility using proven, best-in-class technologies.
Upgrades to the Rialto Biosolids and Energy Facility are expected to be completed in 2015 and will be centered on the construction of advanced anaerobic digesters that will generate renewable energy for facility operation, reduce the volume of biosolids required for heat drying and enable the acceptance of additional organic waste streams at the site.
