This award recognizes Lystek’s and the District’s combined efforts in the innovative application of the Lystek THP® technology to hydrolyze thickened waste activated sludge as enhanced feedstock for the District’s mesophilic anaerobic digesters, a process known as LysteMize®. This project demonstrates LysteMize capabilities to generate additional biogas and substantially reduce residual solids when compared to baseline mesophilic digestion.

“Two of the main drivers for the next few years at our District are to become energy neutral and reduce our biosolids expenses. Being able to produce our own power will make us more resilient during power outages and reducing our overall biosolids quantities will reduce the ongoing expenses associated with disposal. The Lystek project has shown us success in both of these areas. We look forward to continuing to innovate with Lystek and making long-term progress on the District’s economic and environmental initiatives,” Steve Wagner, General Manager, District Engineer, Goleta Sanitary District
