BALTIMORE, July 27, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Synagro Technologies, Inc., the preeminent provider of biosolids and residuals solutions services in North America, welcomed its new Board of Directors (BOD) to its headquarters in Baltimore recently and to its Back River Facility as part of a two-day meeting. Bob Preston, chief executive officer, Synagro, and Joseph Hurt, senior operations manager, Back River Facility, Synagro, provided the BOD with a review of the facility's history; guided them through the facility's operations; and discussed plans to sustain the plant's utilization in the future to meet the growing needs of the City of Baltimore and Baltimore County, Maryland.
The Back River Facility became home to the world's largest indirect dryer when it launched in 1995 and paved the way for drying technology to become widely adopted. Its design allows for the facility to receive and process liquid and semi-liquid biosolids. It manages biosolids by transforming anaerobically digested material into a usable fertilizer product. Additionally, a state-of-the-art, five-stage air quality control process removes particulate matter and eliminates volatile organic compounds and odor components from the dryer.
The new BOD includes Chris Crampton, Cedric Lucas and Nick Semeniuk, all from Goldman Sachs; and independents Linda Fisher, Eric Gernath and Mark Weidman.
