THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Facing new Virginia PFAS limits on biosolids land application, AlexRenew is executing a Biosolids Diversification Project that includes testing PFAS in interceptors and industrial users, shifting to waste-to-energy disposal, and planning thermal drying and diversified end uses like fuel pellets by 2032. The program is only 5% complete with an estimated budget of $355 million, and AlexRenew is piloting sludge mixers and planning Building C retrofits for the dryer. Environmental engineering firms, technology providers, and waste-to-energy partners can engage on PFAS monitoring, process design, dryer integration, and markets for dried biosolids as the program moves from concept to detailed implementation.
PFAS collection system sampling focuses on interceptors and industrial users like hospitals, printers, and laundries; contract with Reworld Fairfax is interim until in-house thermal drying is operational.

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
