| MaxWest Biosolids Gasification System Sanford South Water Resource Center |
Grand Opening: May 21, 2009
Fully operational commercial biosolids gasification system
MaxWest Environmental Systems, Inc. builds, owns, and operates cost-effective environmentally friendly waste-
to-energy systems.
The MaxWest system gasifies Sanford’s treated wastewater sludge to provide renewable “green” thermal
energy to replace energy from natural gas for the City’s sludge dryer. The energy in sludge is converted to heat
safely and economically.
Because it is scalable, the gasification facility has sufficient capacity to meet Sanford’s expected growth over
coming decades and also to serve as a disposal site for other nearby cities and private waste haulers.
This first of its kind, industry-changing technology will provide Sanford with a long-term, green solution for sludge
disposal while saving millions of dollars in natural gas fuel costs. Sanford’s 20-year contract with MaxWest also
provides long-term energy price stability. And, as the system grows, the opportunity to produce renewable green
electricity is available.
MaxWest gasification systems are also in commercial operation for animal and industrial waste. The company
has several projects in design or under development in Florida and other states, including plans to gasify horse
“muck” in Ocala/Marion County, Florida, the “horse capital of the world.”
