Site work for a water / sewer project in Washington, District of Columbia. Conceptual plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

Local, readily available high strength liquid wastes produced by industrial processing plants for food, beverages and pharmaceuticals among others, have been proven to enhance digester gas production. This project will provide a high strength waste receiving/processing facility on-site at Blue Plains. The facility would include 5 receiving tanks, freeze protection as well as pumps to transfer the pre screened liquid waste to either the Cambi thermal hydrolysis process or directly to the anaerobic digesters. Odor control would also be provided. These high strength wastes will be delivered by tanker trucks from the local area industries to the receiving facility at Blue Plains. This project is in included in the District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority (DC Water) FY 2024-2033 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). As of August 12, 2024, further details regarding design and construction have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
