Co-utilization or blending of residuals offers a unique opportunity
to develop products with particular characteristics that are able
to target specific customer needs. The very notion of deliberately
blending by-products suggests that the recycling and beneficial
reuse industries are taking a quantitative step forward towards
developing products rather than simply reusing residuals. At the
same time that this step provides unique opportunities, it also
presents unique challenges. The science associated with the
beneficial use of one product may not apply when that product is
mixed with another residual. Blending of materials may alter the
chemistry of the components of the mixture. This may offer
additional benefits, as in the case of disease suppression in
composts, or present unexpected problems, as the use of
lime-stabilized biosolids has done in Maryland. This book consists
of the proceedings of the Beltsville Symposium. The organizers of
the Symposium attempted to structure a meeting that would outline
both the potential benefits of co-utilization as well as concerns.
The editors have divided the proceedings into sections that
describe the practical basis for co-utilization of residuals as
well as the potential benefits. Specific considerations are
described. Finally, case studies include descriptions of successful
operations and data that detail results of research involving
co-utilization materials. Blending of materials for specific
objectives needs to be the focus of any successful co-utilization
effort. The scientific implications of the mix need to be
determined before a product can be used properly.
