• Immediate & Dramatic Results throughout WWTP• Within a few weeks grease buildup through out the WWTP was gone.
• Within a few months grease “specks” in biosolids cake disappeared.
• Change in delivery philosophy• Requested concentrated and if possible dedicated grease trap loads.
• “Adjusted” rates to enhance cooperation
FOGW PRETREATMENT PERFORMANCE

• No Digestion in Reactor but, pretreatment & transformation into a non‐sticking, high FOG, high VFA, MLSS
• FOGW MLSS discharged into headworks with Plant Influent for Screening & Grit Removal
• Settles out as Primary Sludge• Now “CoDigestion”

• Anaerobic digester feed stock• High Volatiles• Very good alkalinity
• Impact of Biogas Production• Because of all the variables involved in the digestion of sludgeand the subsequent generation of methane, it is very difficult, toestablish a quantitative relationship between the amount ofgrease wastes received and the volume of methane produce, butclearly a relationship exists.
