Who Uses Biosolids

Farmers

Farmers everywhere utilize biosolids as a nutrient source for their agricultural fields. Instead of using chemical fertilizers that are harmful to the environment, properly treated biosolids provide the same nutrients, in addition to boasting other soil health benefits like trace minerals, organic matter, and soil microbe populations.

Professional and hobby gardeners throughout the country utilize biosolids or biosolids-based productsto boost their garden soil health. Biosolids provide vital macro and micro-nutrients, trace elements, and organic matter to foster healthy plants. And they do it without the harmful chemicals of other fertilizers.

More and more people are switching away from synthetic fertilizers to a more natural form of fertilizer. Biosolids-based fertilizers provide the necessary nutrients for lawns and healthy soils. Plus, they do it without harmful chemicals that can be dangerous to pets and children. Using a biosolids-based fertilizer not only helps provide nutrients to plants and lawns but also helps protect waterways from nutrient pollution through chemical fertilizers.

Athletic Fields

Natural forms of fertilizers such as Class A or EQ biosolids are used where performance matters most; golf courses and athletic fields. The added beneficial microbes, high-organic matter, and micronutrients all provide much more than NPK which is only found in chemical-based fertilizers. That’s why more and more groundskeepers are turning to biosolids for high-quality, environmentally-friendly fertilizers.

Soil Producers

The best topsoils that onecan buy areoften amended with high-quality Class A or EQ biosolids. Augmenting natural soils withspecially treated biosolids helps enhance soil properties including increasing macro and micro-nutrient content and dramatically improving organic matter levels to rates that even Mother cannot replicate. Overall, biosolid enriched soilslead to healthier lawns, bigger plants, brighter shrubs, and stronger trees.

Mine Land Reclamation

Biosolids are commonly applied to forests as a way to provide quality organic matter and vital nutrients that support healthy trees. In addition, by applying biosolids to forests, you can improve soil tilth, enhance vegetation, and reducing the threat of soil erosion into waterways.

Brownfield Cleanups

Brownfields are old industrial wastelands that have been abandoned due to historical contamination on the property that has beenvacated by the owner due to economic factors such as highsite cleanup costs. With the proper applications of high organic matter and soil microbes, populations of legacy contaminants left in these sites can be remediated and cleaned, enabling the sites to be reclaimed as usable sites. By usingbiosolids, you can remediate and treat legacy contamination on brownfield sites and turn them into vibrant usable properties for future development.
