BALTIMORE, June 27,
2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Synagro Technologies,
Inc., the preeminent provider of biosolids and wastewater residuals

County Biosolids & Organics Recycling Center in Deerfield, New Jersey, will serve the

the Holly Hill Composting Facility will serve the Charleston and Columbia, South Carolina, markets. These
facilities represent more than a $50
million investment which is in line with the company's

We are excited to announce commercial

examples of how we are executing on our company's strategy to grow

"We are excited to announce commercial operations at these new
composting facilities," said Pam
Racey, Chief Commercial Officer, Synagro. "They are great
examples of how we are executing on our company's strategy to grow
sustainably."
The Cumberland County Biosolids & Organics Recycling Center
is a state-of-the-art 103,000-square-foot, in-vessel composting
process building, utilizing automated aeration, and turning
equipment. New Jersey generators
will be able to leverage Synagro's investment in green
infrastructure for biosolids and organics management thereby
producing approximately 38,000 tons of Class A compost annually.
Synagro has teamed with the Cumberland County Improvement Authority
to provide the facility with renewable energy, creating a highly
sustainable, environmentally and community-friendly solution.
"Synagro considered multiple technologies before selecting
composting for the Cumberland
County facility," said John
Goodwin, Senior Vice President of Technology, Synagro. "Our
choice of an in-vessel composting process was driven by the desire
to utilize proven technology with a demonstrated ability to produce
a high-quality product while maximizing the environmental benefits
of the facility."
The Holly Hill Composting Facility is ideally situated on 25
acres offering a much-needed, cost-effective sustainable composting
option for the region, removing 75,000 tons of biosolids annually
from local landfills. This outdoor, windrow-style,
woodchip-and-biosolids feedstock composting facility will produce
approximately 40,000 tons of Exceptional Quality compost annually.
This compost product will be used in local agricultural and
soil-blending operations thereby completing the biological cycle of
our circular economy. Additionally, this facility will utilize
Synagro's own SynaPureTM wastewater treatment system to provide
clean runoff water from the site.
Both facilities will produce AllGro® compost – a nutrient-rich,
sustainable, all-in-one soil amendment. AllGro compost brings
agronomic value to almost any application by providing benefits
such as increased yields, replenishment of organic matter, water
retention and slow-release plant nutrients which reduce the need
for chemical fertilizers.

into worth by helping more than 1,000 municipal, industrial water

process. As the largest recycler of organic by-products in

beautiful. Visit http://www.synagro.com to learn more.
