[...]Identification of the ideal time for screw shaft maintenance Maintenance of the HUBER Wash Press WAP® as and when required Sensor with signal LED on the HUBER Wash Press WAP® Also for retrofitting to the HUBER Wash Press WAP® The aim of the HUBER Wash Press wear detection system is to enable a preventive maintenance strategy. The system detects a threshold value in the diameter loss of the compacting screw in the closed compaction zone section of the wash press. This part of the compacting screw is usually the machine component subject to the most wear. At the same time, however, it is difficult to control. If increasing screw wear is detected, the operator is informed via a warning message in the machine control. Maintenance can now be planned in time and an unforeseen machine failure can thus be prevented. Benefits The user’s benefits Preventive maintenance strategy Avoid unplanned machine downtime Reduce service effort and costs With the exception of the smallest model, every version of the HUBER Wash Press WAP® will be equipped with the HUBER Wear Detection system in future. In addition, the HUBER Wear Detection system can be retrofitted to any HUBER Wash Press WAP®. The intensity of wear is significantly influenced by several factors Dry residue content of the screenings compacted and discharged: The force required for dewatering increases exponentially with the degree of dewatering of the screenings. The more highly dewatered the screenings are, the more intensive the wear. Grit, stones and debris in the screenings: large and small mineral components of the screenings act like sandpaper. Even small, but permanently present amounts of grit or debris components in the screenings have a negative effect on the service life of the screw. Especially in combination with high DR contents, this results in significant losses in service life. Unnecessary machine operation: If a wash press is operated without screenings, the last helical flights of the screw will also be emptied. The screw can then evade the compaction pressure and rubs against the conveying bars, which leads to additional wear and tear on the machine. The pictures below show screw shafts in new condition, beginning to wear and with advanced wear (left to right). 1 2[...]

[...]The HUBER Technology Foundation supports Shepherd Pido and Jakob Reinhard of the organisation Technik ohne Grenzen (Technology without Borders, Germany): making the local public aware of the issue water and the water cycle is one of the keys to sustainability and success. Numerous water well projects have been implemented but in many cases it happens that the successful completion of the project is documented with some nice photos for the donators and all parties involved before much of the project is forgotten after some years. This is also the reason why an estimated $300 million have got "lost" in water well construction. A study has shown that some water wells, for example in Ghana, are still functional, even after 20 years. Instead of just drilling for water the organisations have created the necessary structures and the people's awareness for water and its circulation. The project in Owumunam has therefore a strong focus on interdisciplinarity. Even if the technical engineering approach is also important, it is not the major part of this project. In this case, it is mainly about to provide the people living there with the necessary knowledge – about the value and economical use of water on the one hand, and about the social structures required to maintain the well for a long time on the other hand. This is the only way to guarantee sustainability. The village has made the first step and shown that they are willing to follow this way by starting to collect money for a maintenance and repair fond. By the cooperation between the German regional groups of Technik ohne Grenzen in Munich and Cape Coast in Ghana, the two students Shepherd Pido and Jakob Reinhard together with their project team are intensively collaborating across cultural barriers. Their sometimes different views on the topic broadens the perspectives of both and helps them find the best possible solution. The main focus is on developing a maintenance and repair workshop to sensitise the local people for the issue and thus ensure the safe and reliable water supply for the village in the long term. All the best wishes from the HUBER Technology Foundation for the successful completion of the project! We will support the two students with a donation.[...]

[...]Treat and reuse process water and waste water Water reuse makes it possible to use water in cycles. This reduces both the consumption of fresh water and the amount of wastewater produced. Water recycling and reuse in industry in the context of "ZLD - Zero Liquid Discharge" plays an important role with regard to the economical use of water as a resource. The importance of irrigating agricultural land with treated municipal wastewater is also widespread in many countries, especially those with less rainfall, and will continue to increase due to climate change and the need for a sustainable "circular economy". The treatment of water with the aim of reuse is carried out by a combination of different process steps, which must be adapted to the specific situation. Here, the quality of the contaminated water as well as the requirements for the treated water play the decisive role. HUBER has a comprehensive portfolio of products and technologies and is therefore able to develop and provide the necessary processes for a customised water reuse solution. HUBER process modules for water reuse Removal of coarse and fine solids: HUBER screens and screening plants reliably remove all types of larger and smaller solids, thus creating the preconditions for reliable implementation of further treatment steps. Grit removal: For the separation of grit or mineral constituents HUBER Grit Traps are used. Removal of dissolved and undissolved substances: The HUBER Dissolved Air Flotation Plant HDF is a chemical-physical process technology that can separate both dissolved and undissolved substances to a very large extent using suitable precipitants and flocculants. Separation of finest solids: For the removal of very fine solids and particles, HUBER offers various micro screens and filters for screening, sand filtration, cloth filtration and activated carbon adsorption.[...]

[...]Munich, Germany "Klinikum rechts der Isar" is the university hospital of TU Munich (TUM). There is an intensive cooperation between the university's research facilities and the clinical centre. About 5,000 employees dedicate themselves to the care of sick, research and science. Every year, about 60,000 patients profit from residential treatment and 245,000 from ambulatory treatment at the highest medical level. With about 30 clinics and departments and about 1,100 beds the hospital is a house of supramaximal care which covers the whole spectrum of modern medicine. Due to the close cooperation between the medical and research institutions patients profit from new findings in scientific studies at a very early stage. From 2012 to 2014, a new central sterile supply department (ZSVA) was built where medical products such as surgical instruments are cleaned and disinfected and come back sterile-packed. Safety of patients and personnel has top priority. The ZSVA unit is designed for a cleaning and sterilisation capacity of 90,000 sterile supply items per year. The Munich planning office PLANUNION designed the plant on the basis of the following parameters: Operating hours 4,000 h/a Flow rate 2.8 m³/h WW inlet to heat recovery system 50° C WW outlet from heat recovery system 34° C ∆ T of wastewater 16° C Efficiency of heat recovery system 96 % The installation space required for the heat exchanger is 6.5 m². The big challenge was the complicated integration into the existing building – the heat exchanger was divided into three sections, flanges were mounted and the sections reconnected on site. Another challenge for the planning office generally is control engineering and the definition of interfaces. Since November 2014, the energetic potential of the effluent from the ZSVA's dishwashers is used by the heat exchanger to preheat the demineralized water that is needed to operate the cleaning and disinfection devices. The temperature raise of the demineralized water cycle can be up to 20 °C. Through connection of the sensing devices to the building control system the temperature raise can be retraced any time. Also the volume flows can be controlled and documented this way. The plant has operated without interruption since the 4th quarter of 2014, ensuring the reliable utilisation of the energetic potential of the effluent from the ZSVA's washing equipment. In 2014, the degree of capacity utilisation of the ZSVA was 65% – the plant will have paid off after about 8.5 years on this basis. The plant has however been designed for the actual capacity expected for the next years. The fact that the capacity utilisation increases year by year has a positive effect on the economic efficiency of the plant.[...]

[...]Cork, UK When DuPont needed to improve their on-site ETP performance, replacing the existing final settlement tanks with HUBER DAF units provided a compact solution. Background The site in Cork makes Micro Crystalline Cellulose Powder, a filler/binder for pharmaceutical and veterinary tablets. The raw material for this is Wood Paper Pulp. In the manufacturing process, large belt filters are used to recover the product as a wet cake but the filtrate and cake washings require treatment before discharge to sewer. The nature of the wastewater is similar to that found in a paper mill, rather than a normal chemical plant. In order to reduce the COD in the treated water, the site uses a large activated sludge lagoon to biologically break down the contaminants. This biological process generates solids, which also need to be removed from the flow. Historically this had been achieved using settlement tanks, but the site were looking to optimise performance as well as reclaim some of the space these large tanks occupied. Solution As one of the largest stainless steel users in Europe, HUBER were well placed to provide a high specification unit capable of dealing with the wastewater. With Dissolved Air Flotation units already in operation treating very similar wastewater, the client was able to visit existing plants as well as the HUBER manufacturing plant before making their equipment selection. The new HUBER Dissolved Air Flotation Plant HDF installation provides solids and associated COD removal form the waste water leaving the activated sludge lagoon, ready for discharge to sewer. All-round walkways make access to the DAF units very easy and the automatic polymer batching system reduces operator input. The units are installed outdoors and have solid covers over the top of the tanks, these provide protection from blown in debris such as leaves and prevent any wind or rain from affecting the process. Separated solids are floated to the top of the machine and removed by an automated mechanical scraper system, which moves the sludge into a sludge hopper for forward pumping to the site’s sludge storage tank. The client attended a FAT (factory acceptance test) for both the DAF and control panel. HUBER provided the full equipment scope to site, including: 2 No HUBER Dissolved Air Flotation Plant HDF S8 units in stainless steel grade 316 Automated 4,000 litre polymer batching plant to flocculate the wastewater Duty/Standby sludge and chemical dosing pumps Pipe flocculator to mix wastewater and polymer within an enclosed, small footprint Pre-programmed Form 4 control panel to automate operation of the plant Access steelwork around all sides of both units Key figures: Flow: 145 m³/h Feed COD: 2,000 to 7,500 mg/l Feed TSS: 6,000 to 8,000 mg/l For more information please contact +44 1249765000, email rotamat@huber.co.uk[...]
