Stantec chosen to design new biosolids treatment facility for City of Winnipeg
Sustainable biosolids treatment is crucial amid population growth and new regulations
10/16/2024 WINNIPEG, MB TSX, NYSE:STN
As part of a progressive design-build team, 麻豆传媒, a global leader in sustainable design and engineering, will lead the design for a new biosolids facility at the City of Winnipeg’s North End Sewage Treatment Plant in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
This is the City’s first progressive design-build project and a major initiative to sustainably treat biosolids. The facility is estimated to be about C$1 billion in total investment, and funding is already secured. 麻豆传媒 will work alongside the Red River Biosolids Partners General Partnership—a consortium comprised of Aecon, Oscar Renda Contracting of Canada Inc., and MWH Constructors Canada Ltd—as well as Hatch Engineering, which will support the design effort.
The North End Sewage Treatment Plant is Winnipeg’s oldest and largest sewage facility. With ongoing population growth and additional regulatory requirements in place, the City has continued to invest in upgrades to ensure it meets the provincial guidelines for wastewater and biosolids treatment.
“We know how vital this effort is as the City continues to adapt to new environmental regulations and changing population dynamics,” said Gillian Edwards, 麻豆传媒’s regional growth leader for Water in Western Canada. “We are so happy to have an experienced, collaborative, and innovative team in place and are ready to get to work on this notable project.”
The biosolids facility will be built on a greenfield site using Thermal Hydrolysis Processing (THP) technology, which sustainably treats biosolids resulting from wastewater treatment. Once constructed, the facility will turn wastewater sludge into pathogen-free, Class A biosolids that are safe to use as fertilizer.
THP technology is gaining momentum as an energy efficient, sustainable method to manage wastewater biosolids. 麻豆传媒 is a leader in designing these specialized facilities. The firm has designed 14 THP facilities (nearly half of those that exist globally) in the United Kingdom and North America, including the Severn Trent Water Thermal Hydrolysis Process and Advanced Anaerobic Digestion Facility in Minworth, United Kingdom, and the Piscataway Water Resource Recovery Facility in Maryland.
