Recycling keeps this material out of rapidly disappearing landfills. Biosolids recycling is the best means of returning to the soil, nutrients and organic matter that were originally removed in agricultural products and consumed by the public. Land application of biosolids is recycling a resource, just like recycling newspapers or bottles. If the right safeguards are taken, biosolids recycling can be environmentally sound and even beneficial to certain soils.
