Scope Of Work
A Wastewater Treatment Plant that Pays for Itself
Design-Build Performance Contract Guarantees Energy Savings, Sustainable Benefits, for Ohio Community
Black & Veatch is the designer and builder of a new, $35 million solids treatment system for the Liverpool Wastewater Treatment Plant in Medina County, Ohio. The system provides energy performance savings and other sustainable benefits through an innovative Design-Build Performance Contract. As a result, the county expects to be able to pay for the new system without increasing customer rates.
“The Liverpool plant’s existing sludge heat treatment system is more than 40-years-old and extremely expensive to operate,” said Blake Childress, Black & Veatch Project Director. “Its new solids treatment system will reduce annual operating costs by approximately 50 percent, for a projected annual operating expense of $1.656 million, and recover essential resources for sustainable reuse.”
