At Wrights of Twycross, we deliver industry-leading biosolid lime treatment solutions designed to stabilise, sanitise, and enhance biosolid materials for safe handling, storage, and reuse. Our service is built around efficiency, compliance, and sustainability—helping clients manage biosolids responsibly while reducing costs and environmental impact.
Biosolid lime treatment is a proven process used to stabilise organic sludge materials by adding lime. This raises the pH level, effectively reducing pathogens, controlling odours, and improving the material’s overall handling characteristics.
The result is a treated biosolid product that is:
A key part of our service is the use of our advanced mobile processing system, the Eco-Warrior—a highly efficient, towable soil and biosolid treatment plant designed for on-site deployment.
The Eco-Warrior is positioned directly adjacent to the material requiring treatment, allowing biosolids to be processed in situ. This significantly improves efficiency and eliminates unnecessary handling stages.
Unlike traditional batch systems, our continuous flow process ensures:
The unique rotating head mechanism ensures a thorough and uniform mix of lime throughout the biosolid material. Whether working with raw sludge or pre-processed cake, we can produce:
Wrights of Twycross offers a fully managed biosolid lime treatment package, ensuring every aspect of the operation is handled efficiently and professionally.
If you’re looking for a reliable partner for biosolid lime treatment, Wrights of Twycross is here to help. Our team can provide expert advice, site assessments, and tailored solutions to meet your operational and environmental goals.

Biosolid lime treatment is a process where lime is added to biosolids to stabilise the material, increase pH levels, and significantly reduce harmful pathogens. This treatment improves safety, controls odours, and produces a more stable material suitable for storage, transport, or reuse in approved applications.
Lime is used because it creates an alkaline environment that inhibits bacterial activity and neutralises pathogens. This makes biosolids safer to handle and helps meet environmental and regulatory standards, while also improving the physical structure of the material.
Biosolid lime treatment offers several key benefits, including:
Yes, biosolid lime treatment can be carried out directly on-site using mobile processing equipment such as the Eco-Warrior. On-site treatment reduces the need for transporting untreated materials, improves efficiency, and lowers overall project costs.
A wide range of materials can be treated, including raw sludge, dewatered cake, and other organic waste streams. The treatment process can also be adapted to suit both primary treatment and secondary enhancement applications.
Yes, it is considered an environmentally responsible solution. By treating biosolids on-site, transport emissions are reduced, and the stabilised material can often be reused in beneficial applications, supporting sustainable waste management practices.
The addition of lime raises the pH level of the biosolids, which helps neutralise odour-causing compounds and inhibits microbial activity. This results in a noticeable reduction in unpleasant smells during storage and handling.
HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) compliant treatment ensures that biosolids are processed in a way that controls potential hazards, particularly pathogens. This standard is often required when treated materials are intended for safe reuse or further processing.
With mobile equipment like the Eco-Warrior, setup can be completed quickly once on-site conditions are assessed. This allows treatment operations to begin efficiently with minimal disruption to ongoing site activities.
