| Abstract | This summary provides the highlights of a successful project to use low temperature geothermal water for a Geothermal District Heating Project. Initial use is as a heating source for a two million gallon anaerobic sludge digester. Expanded usage includes adding two such digesters, in addition to domestic hot water and space heating for a planned total of more than 52 buildings. Construction has started on the expanded system, and testing results to date indicate the geothermal resource will be fully adequate for intended uses. |
