Facts
By 2010, it is projected that 30% of all biosolids generated in the U.S. must be disposed of instead of used beneficially*. The projected amount is 2.5 million dry tons, or 12.5 million wet tons.

Woodland 's unique CPR™ technology offers significant benefits over conventional biosolids disposal methods.  It enables municipalities to safely and cleanly dispose of their biosolids.

Benefits of the CPR™ process are:

  • total pathogen kill 
  • high energy recovery -- ethanol and electricity  
  • large volumes of sterile, reformulated water, ready for re-use in any way chosen
  • no toxic emissions or residues 
  • carbon dioxide emissions are environmentally neutral
  • high economic return

Inputs

  • biosolids
  • biomass (yard waste or other cellulose residues)
  • natural gas (optional)
  • landfill gas (optional)
  • biomass for heating (optional)
  • oxygen
  • electrical energy

Outputs

Marketable

  • ethanol (fuel grade)
  • sterile reformulated water
  • electrical power (optional)
  • sodium nitrate

Other outputs

  • inert solid residues
