HICKORY REGIONAL
COMPOSTING FACILITY
The Regional Composting Facility
in Hickory, North Carolina, is an
in -vessel system designed for efficient,
environmentally -sound compost produc-
tion. The facility receives biosolids from
four municipal wastewater treatment
plants with a combined capacity of 20
MGD, plus county septage, and effectively
turns it into an earthy, beneficial soil
conditioner suitable for landscaping and
horticultural applications.
THE COMPOSTING PROCESS
Tanker trucks transport liquid
biosolids and treated septage to a receiving
station at the composting facility site.
These loadings are mixed together at the
plant, blended with wood amendments and
then dewatered with belt filter presses.
Additional amendment is combined with
the dewatered mixture to add porosity and
provide a carbon food source for the
working microorganisms.
The mixture is then loaded into one of
the facility's four composting reactors.
These Tunnel Reactors provide a
carefully controlled environment in which
the beneficial microorganisms rapidly
convert the biosolids into compost. Each
reactor is divided into seven separate
zones where air flow, temperature and
moisture can be regulated individually.
The biosolids remain in the reactors
for approximately 30 days, depending
upon loading rates. Upon leaving the
reactors, the compost is then transported
to an off -site curing pad where it is placed
in windrows and cured for 14 to 30 days.
BENEFITS
The Regional Composting Facility is
providing the beneficial utilization of a
necessary byproduct of municipal waste-
water treatment. Compost produced at the
plant is being used commercially as well as
by the participating local governments.

Newton, North Carolina 28658
The Regional Compost Facility is a Class A Sludge Management Facility as defined in 40
CFR Part 503.9(c). This facility currently employs one method of biosolids management
that requires compliance with 40 CFR Part 503 requirements. The primary method of
sewage sludge disposal is its beneficial use at the on -site dewatering and in -vessel
composting facility, which prepares the wastewater residuals for land application.
Generators / Preparer of Biosolids
The Sludge Consortium, represented by three local governments, generates biosolids
during the treatment of domestic sewage at their publicly owned treatment works and
prepares materials (dewatered cake and finished compost) from biosolids. The RCF is
owned by the Sludge Consortium, comprised of the Cities of Hickory, and -Conover and
Catawba County, North Carolina. On July 1, 2001 the City of Newton sold their capacity
to the other entities, and is no longer an owner, but is allowed to bring biosolids in
emergency conditions. In January of 1995 the Consortium entered into an agreement for
operations, maintenance, and management (OM&M) services of its RCF with
Professional Services Group, Inc. (PSG) currently called Veolia Water North America
Operating Services (VWNAOS).

General Information:
The Regional Compost Facility (RCF) receives biosolids from the City of Hickory, the City of Conover,
the Town of Maiden, the City of Claremont, Town of Catawba, Septage from Catawba County and City of
Newton as an emergency backup to their land application permit. The biosolids are processed site
specifically as each facility prepares their biosolids using different processes before being pumped into
tanker trucks and transported to the RCF to be processed into a high organic soil amendment (compost).
The biosolids are transported via tanker trucks that carry approximately 6,500 gallons each to the facility.
The Town of Maiden and septage haulers use a 2,000 gallon tanker. The biosolids are stored daily in four
receiving tanks, each with the capacity of approximately 50,000 gallons with a total capacity of 200,000
gallons. The facility currently processes approximately 80,000 gallons per day. The percent solids content
averages 3.5% after blending the biosolids prior to processing.
The duration of treatment consists of a design Tunnel Reactor detention time of 14 days. The current
detention time within the reactors is an average of 30 days. The detention time is a direct correlation of the
total tons of biosolids and amendment processed through the facility. The high temperatures and salmonella
testing results allow all material to be classified as a Class A product upon release of the product. The low
metals content, allows the compost to become an "exceptional quality" product. There is currently an
additional 60 days of detention time capacity on the concrete curing/storage pad.
The compost is cured and stored on a concrete pad with the collection of all leachate runoff going to the
pretreatment facility and discharged to the City of Newton's wastewater treatment plant for final treatment.
No material is cured or stored where leachate could runoff into any receiving streams or flood plains.
The final product is distributed in bulk FOB via walking floor trailers, dump trailers, dump trucks, and pick
up trucks and distributed to a wide variety of end users.
Marketability Statement:
The Regional Compost Facility produces Class A "exceptional quality" biosolids compost with an annual
production rate of approximately 20,000 cubic yards. The product markets consists of customers in the
business of soil blending, turf farming, golf courses, landscaping, tree farming, nursery, soil erosion, and
agriculture. The local market has been favorable for biosolids compost within the area.
All marketability statements are included in our user guide given to each recipient of compost distributed at
the RCF. One is included in this report for your review.

TREATMENT PROCESS
The -Regional Compost Facility (RCF) is a twenty dry tons per day (20.0/DT/dy) in vessel facility using
the Ashbrook-Simon-Hartley (A-S-H) Tunnel Reactor Technology. The RCF is owned by three local
governments, comprised of the cities of Hickory, Conover, and Catawba County, North Carolina. These
three local governments formed a Sludge Consortium to provide centralized for the management and
disposal of their combined municipal wastewater biosolids. In July of 2001 the city of Newton sold their
remaining capacity to the other entities and is no longer an owner, but is allowed to deliver their biosolids
in an emergency or with an agreement with the other owners. Class A wastewater residuals are processed
at the RCF and distributed in bulk to various customers in full compliance and accordance with the
provisions and requirements set forth by Permit No. WQ0004563.
The RCF is built on a 15-acre site in Hickory at an equidistant location for all Consortium members. The
RCF is comprised of biosolids liquid storage, dewatering, in -vessel composting, product storage, odor
control, and pretreatment effluent facilities. The biosolids are prepared for beneficial use as a finished
compost, analyzed, classified, marketed in bulk to a variety of land applications. The pretreated effluent
and leachate from the outside curing operation is discharged to the City of Newton's wastewater
treatment plant for final disposal.
Municipal liquid biosolids are hauled in tanker trucks to the receiving station and deposited into four
underground storage tanks with a holding capacity of approximately 200,000 gallons. Various liquid
biosolids from six different wastewater plants are blended tighter in the liquid storage tanks to provide a
more consistent biosolids before being pumped to the dewatering facilities.
The mixed liquid biosolids are initially pumped to a blend tank, prior to polymer addition and dewatering.
The wood amendment is stored in a silo and conveyed to the dewatering room using screw conveyors.
The liquid biosolids are dewatered using a centrifuge or the back up two 2-meter belt presses. Wood
amendment and recycled compost are added to the cake solids and mixed mechanically, then transported
by drag -flight conveyors to one of four parallel aerated tunnel reactors. The partially treated effluent is
discharged to Newton's wastewater treatment plant.
These tunnel reactors were sized to provide a minimum of 14 days at a loading rate of 20 dry tons per day
(five days per week) of solids retention time for the compost mixture, prior to discharge. The current
loading rate is at 12.33 dry tons per day and the current solids retention time is 29 days. The mixture is
fed into the end of each reactor and moves horizontally using a hydraulic push system, which creates a
plug flow displacement of the compost material. These tunnel reactors provide a carefully controlled
environment in which the beneficial microorganisms rapidly convert the biosolids into compost. Each
reactor is divided into seven zones where airflow, temperature and moisture can be regulated individually.
The discharged compost can either be recycled back to the mixing equipment for further processing or
discharged by a belt conveyor to a concrete cure/storage pad. his pad was sized to allow for product
storage and aeration during a 30 to 60 day curing process. The final product is distributed to various end
users including topsoil blenders, landscapers, sod farmers, the general public, and agriculture uses.
Two odor control systems are installed to treat foul air produced at the RCF. One system consists of a
two -stage packed tower wet chemical scrubbers with an induced draft fan and exhaust fan. This unit is
rated at 9,500 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and is used to process odor compounds from the biosolids at
the receiving station and also any odors associated with the pretreatment system. The other system
consists of a 72,000 CFM , three -stage, packed -bed wet chemical scrubber with an induced draft fan and
exhaust fan. Foul air is directed to two parallel trains of 36,000 CFM each. This unit scrubs the main
building where all the processing occurs and also the off gases in the tunnel reactors. The unit keeps the
composting processes under negative aerations and effectively removes the odorous compounds
associated with biosolids composting.

Sampling plan

TEMPERATURE
DAILY. Operators take tunnel temperatures with a six foot thermometer. The heights of
the tunnels are twelve feet giving us the capability to reach the center of the mass. There
are seven sampling ports along the top of the tunnels from the front to the back.
After discharge the compost is put on an aerated curing pad for further curing and
maturation of the product. During this time (from 30 to 40 days) temperatures are again
recorded with six foot thermometers into the center of the mass and recorded.
Temperature probes are calibrated weekly using a certified calibrated thermometer.
PROCESS CONTROL SAMPLING
Receiving:
Each truck that delivers provides a sample from their load. Each sample is tested for pH
and its dry solids content.
Amendment Receiving:
One composite grab sample is made and is tested for dry solids and weighed for density.
De -watering:
Four grab samples are collected throughout the day of the influent, discharge, and
effluent. These are tested for dry solids. The discharge is weighed for density.
Composting:
One grab sample is collected for each tunnel of the four tunnels infeed and outfeed. These
are tested for dry solids and weighed for density.
Odor Control. Daily pH and Total Chlorine Residual.
Weekly air monitoring: Ammonia, Amines, Hydrogen Sulfide, Dimethyl Sulfide,
Dimethyl Disulfide and Diethyl Mercaptan are tested on the influent and effluent of the
odor control systems.
Pretreatment:
Monthly composite sampling per the City of Newton's Pretreatment Permit.

STATE AND FEDERAL SAWI.ING
