This document provides information about biosolids and the company Mannco Fertilizer. It defines biosolids as a byproduct of wastewater treatment and explains there are different classes (A, B, EQ) based on pathogen levels. Mannco works with municipalities to research, market, and beneficially apply Class A biosolids. Examples are provided of contracts with cities like Nashville, Benton, and Emerald Coast to turn biosolids into a pelletized fertilizer product and generate revenue for communities. The document promotes Mannco's services to help other municipalities similarly benefit from their biosolids.
