[...]Continuous screening, dewatering and transport of coarse material in one operation Removal of coarse material from municipal sludge and industrial process water The STRAINPRESS® is a horizontal cylindrical coarse material separator which consists of inlet and screening zone, press zone, and a discharge section. It is used for liquid sludge screening or filtration of service or process water under pressure. The system does not need any wash water as backwashing of the screen is unnecessary. The perforation and design of the screw shaft are individually adjusted to optimally suit specific requirements. Design and Function A pump presses the unscreened liquid through the screening zone and delivers the screened liquid to further process steps. The coarse material which is retained on the cylindrical screen is stripped off by a coaxial screw and pushed through the press zone where the material is extensively compacted and dewatered. The screw operates only when the pressure sensors detect a differential pressure caused by screen surface blinding. The compacted material is pressed through a gap around a hydraulically operated pressure cone which closes part of the pipe end and builds up counterpressure. The counterpressure of the cone is automatically regulated inversely proportional to the screw motor load. Easy maintenance The complete casing, perforated plate and screw shaft of the HUBER Sludgecleaner STRAINPRESS® are made of corrosion-resistant 1.4307 (AISI 304L) stainless steel. The screw flights are reinforced with tungsten carbide for wear protection. The machine can be split in the middle and one half of the machine moved for maintenance. This allows for example to replace the perforated plate and install a screen insert with a new perforation size. Applications The STRAINPRESS® is used for liquid sludge screening or filtration of service or process water under pressure.

[...]Simple process for the removal of trace substances (fourth treatment stage) No shutdowns necessary for cleaning Reuse of the activated carbon Especially municipal sewage plant effluents are among the most critical paths of entry for micropollutants into surface waters. Many of these so-called trace substances are hazardous to the environment and health, are not readily biodegradable and can accumulate in the environment. With the HUBER Active Carbon Filter CONTIFLOW® GAK, HUBER has developed a versatile and reliable key component for the removal of trace substances (fourth treatment stage), which, cleverly combined with the HUBER Pile Cloth Media Filter Rotafilt® or the HUBER Sandfilter CONTIFLOW® , represents an ideally matched process solution. However, also in industrial wastewater treatment, the HUBER activated carbon filter CONTIFLOW® GAK finds a steadily growing field of application. Especially when it comes to removing dissolved organic COD compounds and pollutants to meet stricter discharge criteria, adsorptive treatment stages with the HUBER Active Carbon Filter CONTIFLOW® GAK are the technology of choice. Design and Function The HUBER Active Carbon Filter CONTIFLOW® GAK is an upflow active carbon adsorber with granulated activated carbon (GAC) as filling. It has a modular design and is available as a stainless steel tank or optionally as concrete construction. The HUBER Active Carbon Filter CONTIFLOW® GAK is designed for continuous operation. This means that no feed interruptions are necessary for cleaning the activated carbon. As the inflow slowly streams through the activated carbon bed from bottom to top, dissolved organic particles such as trace substances are adsorbed on the large inner surface of the activated carbon. The purified water flows off via a weir in the upper part of the filter. As the pressure loss increases, the activated carbon is gently conveyed from the bottom of the hopper into the scrubber located at the top, where it is cleaned from particulate residues. The particles are separated with a small partial flow, the so-called wash water. The activated carbon, which has been cleaned of solids but is still partially loaded with micropollutants, then falls back down onto the filter bed, creating an internal activated carbon circuit. As operation progresses, the loading on the internal surface of the carbon slowly increases. Applications Adsorption of trace substances in advanced wastewater treatment (fourth treatment stage) Biological secondary filtration for the removal of trace substances following ozonisation (BAC filtration) Removal of dissolved COD compounds in industrial wastewater treatment (process wastewater, recirculation water) The benefits of the HUBER Active Carbon Filter CONTIFLOW® GAK Easy to retrofit on existing sewage treatment plants due to modular design No complex carbon dosing technology as with PAC processes No dirt and dust loads as with PAC processes No precautions for explosion protection as with PAC processes No secondary filtration required as with PAC processes No shutdowns necessary for cleaning the activated carbon bed Activated carbon can be regenerated and largely reused[...]
[...]Retention of filterable solids from the secondary clarifier effluent Reduction of phosphorus by upstream precipitation Preliminary filtration in drinking water recovery from surface waters and in UV disinfection applications High hydraulic loads, insufficient tank depth and poor settling behaviour of the activated sludge are the most common causes for the poor performance of secondary clarifiers. Frequently, secondary clarifiers are even unable to reliably ensure the solids retention required. Overflow of flocks increases COD, BOD and phosphorus loads in the effluent and receiving watercourse with the result of higher wastewater fees. A subsequently installed filtration system is a quick, efficient solution in order to achieve separation of suspended material, such as sludge flocks. Combined with preceding precipitation and flocculation a micro screen provides an easy-to-implement means for the reduction of phosphorus in effluents to very low concentrations. This prevents eutrophication of waters and excessive growth of algae and water plants. Design and Function Our HUBER Disc Filter RoDisc® is a filtration plant and consists of up to 35 vertical discs installed on a horizontal shaft. Up to 65% of the disc surface is submerged in the filtrate during operation. Each filter disc consists of 12 individual plastic segments equipped with two filter plates each. The filter plates are covered with filter mesh on both sides. A thermal process is applied to fix the mesh. Each segment can be exchanged individually in case the mesh should be damaged. The finest available mesh size is as small as 10 μm. Due to its small space requirement and modular design the HUBER Disc Filter RoDisc® can be tailored to suit any specific site requirements. The HUBER Disc Filter RoDisc® is a gravity-flow filtration system. The wastewater to be treated flows into the horizontal shaft and from there through openings into the filter discs which the water passes from inside to outside. The filter discs remain in rest position at first during the filtration process. The solids are retained on the inner disc surfaces, which leads to gradual blinding of the mesh, resulting in an increasing pressure differential. An overflow weir ensures that the water level in the tank remains virtually constant. The upstream water level rises as the blinding process progresses. When the predefined maximum pressure differential has been reached, the solids are removed automatically from the filter surfaces. The filter material is cleaned by spray nozzle bars. The solids are removed by the slow rotation of the filter discs combined with the high-pressure water jets which wash the filtrate through the mesh from inside to outside without the need to use fresh water as filtrate is used for backwashing. The spray water and the solids contained are collected in a trough and discharged axially from the machine. The filtration process runs on continuously whilst the filter discs are being cleaned. The Applications of the HUBER Disc Filter RoDisc® Filtration of biologically treated wastewater The HUBER Disc Filter RoDisc® is frequently utilised for the separation of fine suspended material from biologically treated wastewater within municipal and industrial applications, especially if secondary clarifiers work insufficiently because they are too small or the settling behaviour of the activated sludge is poor for example. Our HUBER Disc Filter RoDisc® reliably achieves effluent values which are significantly better than the required limit values for filterable solids. Furthermore, it achieves a further significant reduction of phosphorus concentrations. Filtration to protect or increase the efficiency of downstream treatment systems A virtually solids-free flow is a prerequisite for effective and efficient as well as trouble and maintenance free operation of some subsequent treatment steps, such as UV disinfection or membrane filtration. Our micro screens significantly reduce the concentration of suspended material. Investment and operation costs are more than compensated because micro screening saves money for downstream systems. Treatment of water and wastewater in industries Due to new legislation concerning direct or indirect wastewater discharge, advanced wastewater treatment at source is required. Removal of solids is also required for wastewater recycling because service and process water must be virtually solids-free. Special applications: Wastewater within paper and pulp industry Wastewater within plastic processing industries Treatment of service and process water, closing water loops (e.g. in food and chemical industry) Removal of microplastics The Benefits of the HUBER Disc Filter RoDisc® High hydraulic throughput capacity on a small footprint Gravity system with low headloss, no lifting of wastewater required. Significant reduction of filterable solids, COD, BOD, phosphorus. Effluent standards are reliably met. Reduced wastewater discharge charges. Form-locked and chemical-resistant thermal fixation of the mesh. No external water supply required as filtrate is used for cleaning. For installation within a stainless steel tank or in customer‘s concrete tank. Continuous operation even during backwashing. Simple individual filter element replacement without the need for lifting equipment.[...]
[...]Removal of fibres and hair Service water and wash water treatment Defined separation size COD and BOD removal in river or sea outfall applications Protection of membrane filtration plants Separation of hair, fibres and fine suspended material from municipal and industrial wastewaters is in many applications essential for trouble-free and low-maintenance operation of subsequent treatment stages. Fine mesh screens are required to remove such materials. Wastewater treatment at source is necessary for many industrial installations to meet the requirements for wastewater discharge into sewer systems. Since waste-water fees depend on the freight discharged it is eco-nomically beneficial to minimise the freight by using a fine mesh screen for wastewater treatment at source. Design and Function The HUBER Drum Screen RoMesh® consists of a horizontal screen basket equipped with a fine square mesh (0.2 to 1 mm mesh size) or a perforated plate (2 to 3 mm perforation). Due to the two-dimensional effect of the mesh or perforated plate the screen removes very fine particulate material. The wastewater flows from inside to outside the basket through the screen surface. Filtrate is discharged vertically from the bottom of the drum and the screenings are transported horizontally by the rotation of the screen Filtrate is discharged vertically from the bottom of the drum and the screenings are transported horizontally by the rotation of the screen towards the discharge point. The discharged screenings are usually dewatered in a down-stream screenings press. A spray bar with alternately operating spray nozzles cleans the screen surface while the drum rotates. The screened wastewater can be reused as wash water if a sufficiently fine mesh is used. Applications of the HUBER Drum Screen RoMesh® The HUBER Drum Screen RoMesh® Screen is used to remove ultra-fine solids from municipal and industrial wastewater. The machine is completely made of stainless steel and pickled in an acid bath for optimal corrosion protection and minimised maintenance requirements. The compact units are supplied in a container. Separation of hair and fibers Separation of hair and fibers is crucial to protect downstream treatment stages. In technologies like Membrane Bioreactors (MBRs), preliminary separation of fine material is essential to ensure smooth and low-maintenance operation. Specifically, the removal of fibers and hair is critical before hollow fiber membrane plants as fibers may lead to tressing or blocking of the membrane. 1.0 mm square mesh to protect hollow fiber membranes 2.0 or 3.0 mm perforated plate to protect plate membranes feed pump from sump or channel COD and BOD reduction prior to river or sea outfalls Raw wastewater is often only treated with a mechanical coarse screen before being discharged directly into rivers or the sea. Ultra-fine screens are highly effective for outfall applications in rivers or seas, as they significantly reduce the COD and BOD loads in the discharge. This process is both fast and cost-effective. Due to their fine mesh, these screens not only capture waste but also effectively separate fine particulate material of organic origin, which has a high COD and BOD content. The screen is capable of reducing BOD by 20% and filterable solids (AFS) by 50%, ensuring compliance with the stringent discharge standards Even better performance can be achieved with prior precipitation and flocculation. Recovery of wash water and service water free of hair and fibers Separation of hair and fibers is crucial for reusing wastewater as wash water. The HUBER Drum Screen RoMesh®, with its two-dimensional square mesh, effectively retains nearly all hair and fibers, ensuring the treated water is suitable for reuse. Treatment of industrial process water Mechanical wastewater pre-treatment is essential to meet discharge requirements for sewer systems. Since wastewater fees are often based on the load (freight) discharged, it is economically advantageous to minimize this load at the source. The HUBER Drum Screen RoMesh®, featuring a square mesh for high capture rates, is specifically designed for this purpose, efficiently removing solids and reducing the load on downstream systems. A selection of the variety of applications in industries: Paper and pulp industry: separation of fine fibers Meat processing industry: separation of scraps Agricultural industry: separation of fruit and peel residues Breweries: mechanical preliminary treatment of all process waters Laundries: separation of fibers from wash waters The benefits of the HUBER Drum Screen RoMesh® Excellent separation efficiency due to the defined separation size provided by the square mesh Significant reduction of COD and BOD in river or sea outfall applications Protection of downstream treatment stages, e.g. MBR plants, through removal of hair and fibers High-pressure washing at 120 bar eliminates blocking of the square mesh Small footprint requirements due to the enclosed, compact design Reduced wastewater discharge fees through freight reduction[...]
[...]For high separation efficiencies For any flow rate Easy and reliable screenings transport The HUBER STEP SCREEN® System is widely accepted and successful due to its function and easy-to-follow operation principle as well as the simple cleaning method without any aids (self-cleaning effect according to the counter-current principle). It is furthermore easy to maintain and able to handle extremely big screenings volumes while it offers also a high operational reliability. Design and Function The variable installation angle ensures optimal adjustment to individual hydraulic conditions, such as limited upstream levels due to preceding pumping stations operating reliability due to tailor-made layout The motor linkage drive has been developed from the well-proven link system. To the benefit of our customers we intentionally avoided difficult-to-maintain chain drives. With the new linkage type we are able to master the occurring bending moments on the lamellae, especially with high water levels. The screenings carpet is a structure, the pores of which retain much smaller particles than the actual slot width would allow. This additional filtration effect significantly improves separation efficiency.

[...]Well-proven mechanical preliminary treatment equipment High grit separation efficiency Large scum separator with automatic grease removal Optional grit washing The unique HUBER Complete Plant Hydro Duct ROTAMAT® Ro5 HD combines the benefits of both aerated and unaerated grit traps by using a high-performance, innovative grit trap with a small overall plan area. Design and Function The wastewater flows firstly through an inlet screen that retains, washes, compacts and dewaters the solids contained within the flow. The screened wastewater then passes at a right angle into the grit trap tank where it generates a spiral flow. Integrated air tubes support the spiral flow and ensure that the organic particles are kept in suspension. Additionally, grease and similar substances float to the surface by the action of the aeration system within the grit trap. The flow then enters a second unaerated upflow grit trap chamber which contains an integral hydro duct that ensures a directed flow approach from the bottom of the chamber with positive and uniform upflow distribution. The flow velocity in the unaerated grit trap chamber is reduced to such an extent that very fine grit settles at the bottom and the grease rises to the water surface from where it is automatically removed by a well-proven paddle system. Whilst the particles separated from both chambers are removed from the grit trap by classifying screws or grit pumps, they are simultaneously being statically dewatered, or washed in a grit washer, prior to being discharged into a container. As an option, the separated grit trap material can be washed in the Complete Plant. In this case, the horizontal grit conveyor transports the separated grit fractions directly into a grit washer integrated at the Complete Plant outlet. Due to a defined introduction of upwardly directed service water the grit situated within the lower part of the grit washer is fluidised within the flow enabling the lighter organic particles to be separated from the dense grit particles. The separation of the lighter organic particles from the dense grit particles is supported by a rabble rake. After removal of the organic material the clean grit is automatically removed by a classifying screw, statically dewatered and discharged into a container.
