benefit from the upgrades of this project as this
project ensures that the City of Saskatoon can
continue to maintain wastewater processing
standards that protect our environment,” says
Kelsea Doll, Project Manager. “With the ability to
utilize biogas for heating, this project has also
reduced the City’s overall natural gas consumption.”
“The City of Saskatoon Wastewater Treatment
Plant staff were very supportive throughout the
entire project,” Doll adds. “Staff participated in
performing design reviews, accommodating the
contractor on the plant site during construction, and
Biotrickling Filter Complete
commissioning the actual system that was installed
while still operating and maintaining the other areas
of the plant. Other major groups to thank include
the City project team, the construction contractor
team from Graham Construction, and the design
consultant team from Jacobs.”
With the addition of a fourth digester tank, it is
anticipated that the Wastewater Treatment Plant will
not require a digester capacity increase for another
30 years though this projection is dependent
on population growth and operating permit
requirements set out by the WSA.
