[...]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 [...]
[...]Dublin, Ireland A new Anaerobic Digestion plant outside Dublin has been provided with high efficiency HUBER grit removal and grit washing, to ensure trouble free operation and reduced downtime. Background Material accepted at site includes kerbside food waste collection as well as other organic material. This material is de-packaged and screened, but the resulting pulp still contains large amounts of grit (stones, glass, eggshells and bones). If not removed, this grit blocks and abrades both pumps and tanks. In particular the digester itself can accumulate grit, reducing the effective volume and [...]
[...]Cannock STW, UK HUBER Technology recently completed a project for Severn Trent Water at Cannock STW, north of Birmingham. HUBER Technology were engaged on the project in 2018 with the project being installed in late 2019 and commissioned in 2020. Project Profile This project was part of the upgrade to the Four Ashes and Cannock STW sludge treatment capability to include finer screens and provide sludge thickening.

[...]Charfield, UK As part of the Wessex Water inlet screen replacement projects, HUBER Technology completed the delivery and installation of a new inlet screen and screenings handling project at Charfield STW near Wooton under Edge. Project Profile Installed on site was an old 20mm bar screen discharging into a launder feeding a macerator and licep unit. All the equipment installed were at the end of their asset life and were constantly failing. The inlet screen was also allowing rag to bypass it due to its age. HUBER Technology Supplied HUBER Micro Strainer ROTAMAT® Ro9/700/6 without washwater or[...]
[...]Dublin, Ireland HUBER Technology UK was chosen as supplier of seven bar screens and seven screenings wash-presses for the Dublin Bay Inlet Works at Ringsend. The order also included supply of all control panels for all our machines. The plant’s management selected our multi-rake bar screens RakeMax® because of their low head loss during peak flow, in spite of their small bar spacing. Another selection criterion was their great screenings removal capacity. It also helped that our super-launder screenings presses WAP® SL provide superior washing intensity and compaction capability, resulting in a [...]
[...]Penrith, UK Originally, the two existing perforated plate (escalator-type) screens at the Penrith wastewater treatment plant discharged their screenings into a launder trough wherefrom they were flushed to a tank incorporating macerator pumps. These pumps grinded the solids and returned them back to the works. Besides the fact that the entire system did only comminute the screenings, but did not remove any solids, the system did not operate reliably. The main problems encountered by the operators were that the macerator pumps required constant maintenance and that, under certain circumstances, the [...]
[...]Minworth, England A HUBER Technology Wastewater Case Study at Minworth STW HUBER Technology recently completed a project at one of the largest inland sewage treatment works in the UK, Minworth STW. Minworth serves a population equivalent of 1.75 million from Birmingham with full flow to treatment of 1,070Ml/d. The works treats sludge arising from a population equivalent of 2.3 million which is made up of indigenous sludge plus imported sludge from the nearby Coleshill STW and various works in Staffordshire and north Warickshire. Good early engagement from all the concerned parties helped [...]
[...]Meadowhead, UK Quotes Jim Gordon, Project Manager Scottish Water : “ The Meadowhead Inlet Refurbishment was a very challenging project on a number levels including a very tight timescale. Key to the success of delivering this on time was an effective and efficient working relationship between Huber, SW Managed Delivery, SW Operations and the main contractor with all parties meeting their respective project commitments on or ahead of schedule. Huber as the principal supplier and installer of screens and screening handling kit had a key role to play in meeting the aspiration of the delivery team [...]
[...]Pulborough, UK Huber Technology completed the inlet screen upgrade at Pulborough STW, installing two HUBER Micro Strainer ROTAMAT® Ro9 / 700’s on an elevated inlet works. Project profile Working with BTU, Southern Water’s small projects delivery team, we looked at various options to replace the old worn out 25-mm Parkwood bar screen and screenings dewaterer. The P.E. for Pulborough was 8,352 and the consented FFT 62 l/s. Flows from the terminal pump station had been recorded up to 160 l/s and the existing screens were allowing unscreened influent into the balance to the storm tanks and the rags[...]
