[...]Aylesbury STW, UK Huber Technology has been awarded a contract to supply the RoDisc® filter to Thames Water. The project is part of a Thames Water Amp 5 scheme to improve tertiary treatment at Aylesbury STW. The project is to allow for population growth, part of which is to increase the tertiary treatment capacity. Following successful award onto Thames Water framework for the supply of this equipment in October 2011, we were then approached by Black & Veatch to provide the equipment. Additional capacity has been added to ensure that the increased flows can be treated and 3 x HUBER Disc Filter RoDisc[...]

[...]Great Britain Three recent installations are now helping poultry slaughterhouses to reduce their sludge disposal costs and remove their reliance on tankering sludge off site. Background With ever increasing sludge disposal costs and tightened restrictions on spreading sludge on land (particularly over the summer months), HUBER were approached to provide dewatering of the sludge on three poultry slaughterhouses. The sites had identified the potential for savings and wanted to evaluate treatment options. Since the three sites operate similar processes, a single trial was conducted to evaluate[...]

[...]Beilngries, Germany The Beilngries wastewater treatment plant is located in the Altmühl Valley, a region very popular with tourists. The plant treats the wastewater of approx. 10,000 inhabitants. The digested sludge is dewatered three times a year over a period of two weeks using a decanter from a contractor. The practice of contract dewatering was then scrutinised for the following reasons: The long stacking of the digested sludge, also due to its cooling, combined with the high throughput rate on the decanter, led to poor dewatering results of only 20% dry matter content in the press cake. [...]

[...]Bremen, Germany A new future quarter for business, living, work, culture and leisure is currently being built in Bremen – with a sustainable energy supply from wastewater: Europe's once largest tobacco factory is being revitalised into the “Tobacco Quarter” building complex. The quarter has reinvented itself, turning an outdated industrial site into a prime example of urban development with its finger on the pulse of the times. It is one of the largest urban development areas in northern Germany. A new future quarter for business, living, work, culture and leisure is currently being built in Bremen[...]

[...]Hull (Saltend), UK HUBER Technology recently supplied, installed and commissioned coarse and fine inlet screens, launder systems and screenings handling plant for both sets of screens at one of Yorkshire Water’s largest wastewater treatment, Hull (Saltend). The new elevated inlet works that houses the HUBER equipment is designed to treat the flow to full treatment of 2140 l/s and a population equivalent approaching 450,000. In addition to the construction of a new inlet works, HUBER were successful in securing the subcontract to supply 2 No. Ro3 sludge screens as part of the upgrade of the sludge [...]

[...]Cardston, UK The City of Cardston’s Wastewater Treatment Plant is aging yet still performs well in providing the services that its population needs. The close knit community has had some issues with odors from the WWTP but it is a trade-off for free fertilizer the plant provides to local barley farmers. One of the ways that Cardston has maintained WWTP performance is by employing leading technology within the wastewater treatment process. What the citizens of Cardston didn’t know was that when the WWTP chose to install HUBER’s Screw Press Q-PRESS®, it would not only improve performance, but it [...]

[...]Westnewton , UK Westnewton WwTW is located close to the Solway Coast and treats a population equivalent of 275. Flows arrive at a terminal pumping station off site and is pumped up to the WwTW for treatment. After treatment flow exits the works into Westnewton Beck. HUBER Technology supplied, installed and commissioned a duty/standby 3 mm 2D inlet screening package also incorporating a handraked bypass channel with a 12 mm bar screen fitted and local control stations to the Contract Delivery Partner (CDP) C2V+. This equipment is located upstream of a Nereda® process specifically designed for[...]

[...]Winchcombe STW, UK HUBER Technology recently completed a project for Severn Trent Water at Winchcombe STW, north of Cheltenham. Following the successful installation of a similar project at Stratford Milcote HUBER Technology were engaged by CiM6 on the project in 2017 with the project being installed in 2019 and commissioned in early 2020. Project Profile This project was part of the upgrade to the Winchcombe STW to provide sludge thickening to reduce operational costs of tankering thin sludge from site HUBER Technology Supplied 1 x HUBER Disc Thickener S-DISC Sludge Thickener mounted onto a skid[...]

[...]Basildon, UK Working with I.O.S., a delivery arm of Anglian Water, together we developed a solution utilising HUBER Rotary Screw Thickeners S-DRUM and investigated how these well proven sludge thickeners might replace existing centrifuges. Background At their water recycling centre at Basildon WRC HpH technology (heating, pasteurisation & hydrolysis) has been operational for a number of years. The first step in the process uses hot water and steam to heat the sludge, typically this is recovered from the combined heat and power (CHP) engines that generate electricity from the biogas. The second [...]

[...]The HUBER Screw Press Q-PRESS® 280 trial equipment has been busy over the last few months. Although it has been much harder and taken longer to organise than usual, we at HUBER Technology consider ourselves very fortunate to have been able to conduct business like this during the COVID pandemic. Trial 1 The first trial was at a site in the North East of England. The site has a Population Equivalent of 61,469 and a full flow to treatment of 463 l/s and which presently uses a Gravity Belt Thickener (GBT) to mechanically thicken the Surplus Activated Sludge (SAS) produced on site, which is then [...]
