Wharton-Smith provided Design-Bid-Build services for two projects at the existing First Broad River Wastewater Treatment Plant for the City of Shelby, North Carolina.
The biosolids project consisted of constructing an all-new anaerobic digestion system with dewatering to replace the City of Shelby’s existing biosolids handling system. This new system contained anaerobic digesters with mixing, scrubbers, boilers, heat exchangers, a digester control building with a laboratory, a sludge holding tank, a dewatering building with two belt filter presses and associated polymer feed equipment, a filtrate pump station, non-potable water pump station, filtrate equalization tanks, building waste gas flare, dewatering sludge storage building with a pad and miscellaneous site work.
The influent improvements project included new headworks with rotary drum screens and grit equipment, 850 LF of force main, a new primary clarifier splitter box, and upgrades to the existing influent pump station.
