Barwon Water Biosolids Management Project - Geelong, Victoria, Australia

Welcome to the project website for the Barwon Water Biosolids Management Project.

This project will provide an environmentally sustainable, long-term management scheme for the beneficial use of biosolids produced at Barwon Water’s regional water reclamation plants.

Located south of Geelong, adjacent to the existing Black Rock Water Reclamation Plant, the project involves the construction of a facility to safely dry and pelletise biosolids so that they achieve the highest possible treatment quality; grade T1.

This approach maximises the possible beneficial uses Barwon Water biosolids can be used for. It is a modern, natural and environmentally sustainable approach to dealing with an age-old issue.

Construction and commissioning is completed and Plenary Environment has received the EPA Licence following an extensive performance testing process.
