ARCHITECTURE with People in Mind
A new belt-press facility separates solid waste from liquid as a pre-treatment process. The building form reflects the use with the belt press at the top level of the building. This area, which includes a testing station, is wrapped in windows to allow for improved light and working conditions. The materials--concrete, stainless steel doors, aluminum windows and zinc panels--are intended to provide long life in a harsh environment.
