Asker, Norway, 29 September 2023 

 
Cambi has signed a contract to provide thermal hydrolysis process (THP)
technology for a renovation at the Louisville MSD's Morris Forman Water Quality
Treatment Center (WQTC), the largest wastewater treatment plant in Kentucky,
USA.  

 

The project will utilize Cambi THP to increase the volume of wastewater solids
the site's existing anaerobic digesters can process. THP and additional
improvements allow MSD's Morris Forman WQTC to process not only the solids from
this plant but also solids from some of its other locations while producing
renewable energy and a smaller volume of high-quality biosolids.  

 

"We are thrilled to announce Cambi's first contract in Kentucky. The integration
of our THP system will increase renewable energy production and drive down
costs, representing a significant stride towards sustainable wastewater
treatment for the community," remarked Eirik Fadnes, Cambi CEO. 

 

The facility, owned and operated by the Louisville and Jefferson County
Metropolitan Sewer District (MSD), provides wastewater, stormwater and flood
protection services for Louisville and surrounding communities. Louisville MSD
Executive Director, Tony Parrott, remarked that the planned enhancements to the
solids handling facility would be a win for both the environment and their
customers for generations to come. 

 

The project will be executed with Walsh Construction as the general contractor
and Stantec providing engineering and design. Cambi's scope includes two trains
of the company's B6 system, scheduled to commence operations in 2026.
