************

As the largest biosolids management company in the country operating in 37 states under a wide range of varying conditions, Synagro utilizes many methods for treating and disposing of wastewater treatment plant residuals. With a long, 25-plus year history of Class A and Class B biosolids treatment projects in place, in recent years we have seen a constantly accelerating move toward Class A across the country. As such, heat drying and pelletization has always played a very important role in Synagro's offerings and will continue to do so in the future. Our current 10 heat drying facilities span the nation from Hawaii to Florida, the newest such facility being designed, built, owned and operated by us for the City of Philadelphia, PA. This presentation will describe the various drying technologies employed by Synagro and others, their appropriate applications, advantages, and costs. As well, time will be spent specifically describing our newest facility in Philadelphia.
