Attachment 1, Program information.
Processed Residual Pellets are transported by covered truck to the storage area consisting of a 75' x75'
paved pad and covered until final use. Then the pellets are loaded into covered trucks and transported
to the application site in bulk.
Suggested Limiting factors would be Total Nitrogen and Calcium.
Leachate is not addressed and does not apply.
Process Flow diagram.
Step one, Waste activated sludge pumped from WAS basin to one of two Aerobic digesters.
Step two, Sludge is aerobically digested for approximately thirty days.
Step three, the digested sludge is then pumped to a belt press.
Step four, the sludge is pressed to achieve an approximately 15% cake.
Step five, the pressed cake is then conveyed to a storage hopper.
Step six, the cake is then conveyed to the Belt dryer system where it is dried to achieve a Class A pellet
product.
Step seven, the dried pellet is conveyed to a dump truck.
Step eight, the truck then transfers the pellets to our storage area.
Step nine, the pellets are covered and are ready to pick up for transport to the application site.

Process Description
The sludge at Mooresville VWUTF will be dewatered.with. belt press. The_sludge.will be dewatered to 1.8
% DS (range: 16:- 20 % DS). The dewatered sludge is transferred into the storage tank with life bottom
screws (storage capacity approx. 30 cy) by a existing belt conveying system.
The dewatering system and the dryer should are less than 30 ft apart — this minimizes issues with odor.
The intermediate storage tank is connected to a dewatered sludge pump which delivers the. sludge into
the dryer's feed unit from where the sludge is placed onto the dryer's active belt width in the form of
several individual strings. For this purpose HUBER uses a well -proven and patented extruder. The main
reasons for the extruder is:
- producing dried product with very low dust content (safety)
distributing the sludge evenly on belt with -maximum contact surface area (evaporation efficiency)

The dryer consists of a two belt system. The upper belt transports the sludge through the dryer up to
where the material is to be transferred onto the next belt (opposite side to feed system). The lower belt is
transporting the sludge back to the side of the dryer where the feed equipment is located. The final
drying process takes place and the dried material is discharged into a conveyor.
Hot water is used to heat up the drying air by means of heat exchangers. The hot water is generated by
means of the heating boiler and pumped to the heat exchangers. The recirculation air is heated up at the
heat exchanger and within the dryer, process air streams through the sewage sludge from top to bottom
and then through the belt. Whilst the air is streaming through the sludge, the process air temperature
drops due to absorption of water from the sludge. Most of the moist process air is circulated back to the
heat exchangers, only a part of the air is discharged.
The exhaust air flow is first cooled by a heat recovery system which provides a pre -heating of the fresh
air entering the dryer system. After the recovery system the exhaust air is transferred to a scrubber
system (described below). The vapours are passed on to wastewater treatment (see interfaces).
The dried sewage sludge is discharged by horizontal screw conveyor. The discharge conveyor feeds an
inclined conveyor which discharges the dried material into the truck.

Extruder / Pelletizer
The dewatered sludge should be between 16 and 20 %. The conveying system (belt conveyor)
discharges the dewatered sludge into the sludge storage tank. The tank consists of a levelling auger, life
bottom augers and two thick sludge pumps mounted underneath the life bottom. The pumps are of the
progressive cavity type suitable for dewatered sludge up to around 25% IDS. The pumps are operated on
VFD's.
The pump delivers the sludge to the extruder/pelletizer with low pulsation. A correct dimensioning of the
pump is important for reliable operation. The speed of the pump shall not exceed 50 rpm.
Picture 2 Example of thick sludge pump arranged underneath a bunker made of concrete and equipped
with a polymer dosing station and pressure probe
For each pump a calibration curve is designed and included in the control showing the dependence of
the throughput of dewatered sludge from the pump speed in cycles per second of the frequency
converter. In the tube after the pump a pressure probe is installed. An alarm is generated and the pump
is stopped when pressure in the pipe exceeds an adjustable value — approx. 250 PSI +/- 15 PSI
depending on the sludge quality. Maximum admissible pressure of the pump is 350 PSI in normal design.
In case of highly dewatered sludge which proves to generate a high resistance during their passage
through the pipe to the pelletizer (extruder) an optional polymer dosing station with separate dosing
pump can be installed to reduce friction and pressure build-up inside the tube system. A high pressure

flexible tube is connected between the metal tube and the pellet former (extruder) installed on top of the
first belt of the belt dryer.
At this process stage a sludge pellet former with perforated matrix developed by HUBER is used to
produce a regularly structured sludge that forms a well permeable layer on the dryer belt. This kind of
feeding has the additional advantage that a virtually dust -free product is generated due to the defined
shaping of sludge pellets. Standard matrix perforations have a hole diameter of 3/8" (8 mm — see picture
3).
Picture 3 Pellet former (Extruder) filling a belt dryer with pellets of sludge
The pressure in the housing of the pelletizer (extruder) is reduced to around 10 — 15 PSI (values vary
depending on kind of sludge) due to the pressure release when sludge is pressed through the matrix of
the pelletizer. A rotating knife is continuously cutting hairs and other fibrous material at the surface of the
perforated plate thus avoiding clogging of the extruder.
If the sludge contains particles larger in diameter than the opening size of perforation, the pressure on
the perforated plate will increase and the pump will switched off as soon as the pressure reaches a
defined level. Pressure values exceeding 20 PSI (values vary depending on kind of sludge) indicate that
cleaning or maintenance of the pelletizer head is required. The plate can now be removed and cleaned.
It takes about 15 minutes to replace it, dryer operation is not interrupted during this time.

The sludge pelletizing process is key to the performance of the dryer. The layer of sludge should have a
high porosity to allow heated air passing through the layer evenly. The picture 3 shows how the sludge is
spread on the upper belt of the dryer.
The sludge is placed in approx. 10 inch wide layers on the upper belt. The belt is not moving as long as
the pelletizer travels from one side of the belt to the other. The belt drive turns on as soon as the
pelletizer has reached an end position, indicated by a proximity switch. It runs for a set time to make
space for another layer of sludge. The pelletizer is moving in the other direction with the sludge pump still
pushing dewatered material through the perforated plate. Another proximity switch indicates the end
position on the opposite side. The belt drive moves the belt to make space for another layer and the
entire cycle starts again.
Heat Generation with Boiler. Heat Exchangers
The boiler provided is using natural gas to generate hot water with a temperature up to 210°F. The hot
water is pumped to gas — water heat exchangers which transfer the heat. There are several heat
exchangers with the following functionality:
- heat exchanger: fresh air intake (total 1, hot water supply from boiler)
- recirculation heat exchanger: maintain temperature in each module (total 5, hot water supply from
boiler)
- heat recovery system: transfers heat from the exhaust air stream to the fresh air inlet (total 1, internal
loop)
The hot water is distributed by means of.a header system feeding all heat exchangers using hot water.
The flow to each heat exchanger is controlled by a modulating valve. The flow depends on the
temperature set point — the hot water supply is increasing as long as the actual temperature is below the
set point.
HUBER Belt Dryer BTplus
The upper belt moves the sludge through the dryer — see description above. The sludge passes all five
sections of the dryer on its way from the pelletizer to the opposite side (head piece II). Each dryer
sections has two recirculation fans, which makes the air circulating in the module and distributes the air
to both belts by means of baffle plates.
The warm air is passing the sludge sitting on the upper belt, the material is heated and water is
evaporating. The air passing the sludge is losing heat — the air temperature drops because of the
evaporation process. The recirculation fan returns the air to the heat exchanger where the temperature
increases again — transfering heat from hot water to the air.
The transition to the lower belt takes place at the head piece II. The transition consists of a hopper with
two level sensors. The upper belt discharges the material into the hopper, the sludge pellets are broken
up and new surface is generated to improve the evaporation of the remaining water.
In the transfer chamber between the upper and the lower belt has a level monitor and the lower belt is
activated as soon as the level exceeds the set point. Both belt drives are VFD controlled. The sludge is
passing again all five sections during the travel on the lower belt. Hot air is passing again the sludge on
the belt.
The final dry substance content of the sludge can be adjusted, up to 95 %DS are possible (maximum 5%
moisture). At the end of the second belt, dried sludge is discharged into a screw conveyor which finally
discharges the dry material into a cable conveyor which discharges the material into the truck.

IDS content is controlled via a solid / moisture probe which is installed at the discharge end of the dryer.
This probe controls the speed of the lower belt according to material moisture at the dryer outlet. It
ensures that the material is not discharged as long as the desired moisture content is reached.
Picture 4 The HUBER belt dryer BT with pellet former (extruder), heat recovery line in the air recirculation
system and treatment of waste air by a two stage scrubber (and a biofilter, not used at Mooresville, NC)
The special air flow direction through the dryer and the arrangement of the heat exchangers result in low
thermal and electric energy demand of the dryer, as the loading of the drying air with water vapour can
be adjusted to high levels. The temperature of the drying process is monitored and controlled in all five
sections. The temperature level is 180 - 195°F. The controlled drying process in combination with
monitoring the moisture content of the final product ensures that the material is dried to the desired
maximum moisture content at all times: meeting Class A requirements EPA 503, is also confirmed by
series of tests at existing installations.
The exhaust air is limited to the amount of fresh air entering the dryer via the feeding port. The dryer is
operated at a slight vacuum to ensure that there is no vapour exiting the dryer. The removal rate of
process air in each section is controlled by modulating butterfly valves. It ensures that the moisture
content in each section is constant.

Exhaust Air Treatment System
Sludge consists of many different ingredients. The exact amount and origin of these ingredients varies
from application to application. Therefore the emissions coming from the drying process varies within
these different applications as well. Our exhaust treatment (scrubber) system is designed to eliminate
ammonium and hydrogen sulfide.
The chemical scrubber for the exhaust air treatment system consists of: Ammonium is removed through
the addition of sulfuric acid in an acidly operated counter -current scrubber. At the same time, heat might
be extracted from the circulating wash water by the means of a heat exchanger. It is possible to use
clean effluent of the WWTP as cooling medium for the wash water cycle.

This step is followed by a scrubber providing oxidizing condition to remove hydrogen sulfide and
mercaptane: this step uses caustic soda and sodium hypochlorite solution.
The cooling of the wash water is only necessary in order to cool the exhaust air below 100°F in case a
bio filter (not in scope of supply) is used. Following the scrubber a bio-filter is used to eliminate fine
particles and also the organic odors incase more restrict discharge requirements are in place.

In accordance with your permit major modification request received March 25, 2011, and
subsequent additional information received April 18, 2011, we are forwarding herewith Permit No,
WQ0033587, dated May 25, 2011, to Granville Farms, Inc. for the continued operation of the subject
residuals management program.
Modifications to the subject permit are as follows:
Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Utilities (WQ0029804) has been added to Attachment A as
a source of Class A biological residuals for the Granville Fanns, Inc. residuals distribution
program.
The addition of the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Utilities facility as a. source of biosolids
increases the permitted distribution amount above the threshold of 3,000 dry tons per year of
Class A residuals. As a result, the permit classification has been changed from "minor" to
"maj or". Please note that this includes an increase in the annual fee amount to $1,31.0 per
year.
On August 5, 2009, Session Law 2009-406, entitled "An Act to Extend Certain Government
Approvals Affecting the Development of Real Property within the State," was enacted by the
General Assembly and signed into law. The Act, known as the Permit Extension Act of 2009,
extends the expiration date of certain government approvals and permits.
Non -discharge permit, WQ0033587, issued by the Division of Water Quality falls within the
scope of this Act and is therefore being extended until December 31, 2016. Please note per your
permit, a renewal application must still be submitted six months in advance of the extended
expiration date.
