InnServices and Lystek Execute Agreement to Implement Biosolids Management Solution

InnServices Utilities and Lystek International are executing a formal agreement to implement biosolids management solutions at the Lakeshore Water Pollution Control Plant in Innisfil, Ontario. Currently, the plant has a design rated capacity of 3.9 mgd. In 2011, the town completed the Innisfil Lakeshore WPCP Expansion Environmental Study, concluding that the historical Class B biosolids storage and disposal program would not be suitable to keep pace with future growth. The Lystek Thermal Hydrolysis Process will not only meet all of the town's immediate needs, but by extending the operating hours of the fully automated system, meet peak demand in the future with no need for additional storage tanks or buildings. It also moves the plant forward to producing a pathogen-free, federally registered, Class A quality fertilizer product (LysteGro) that can be sold — not given away or treated as waste.
