Colsen’s thermophilic anaerobic sludge digestion (TAD) is a treatment technology for organic wastes such as municipal sewage sludge, manure, agricultural waste or food waste which guarantees to provide Class A Biosolids while increasing waste reduction and biogas production considerably in comparison with conventional mesophilic digestion.

Colsen's TAD doens't require for complex and expensive pre- nor post-treatment steps. To be able to guarantee such a high sludge reduction efficiency, TAD is designed with Colsen's proprietary digester mixing and heating system, DIGESTMIX. DIGESTMIX assures optimized mixing and heating which is needed to sustain thermophilic digestion at an optimal performance.
