[...]Novelty – HUBER Sludgecleaner STRAINPRESS® 420 With nearly 1000 produced machines, the HUBER Sludgecleaner STRAINPRESS® 290 is one of the most proven HUBER products. To complement or as an alternative to fine screens installed in channels, the STRAINPRESS® permits the separation of solids even from closed pipeline systems. In contrast to conventional screening systems, the STRAINPRESS® not only separates solid material, it also dewaters the material before discharging it. Typical screen perforations used for screening primary sludge are 3 mm or 5 mm, with the screenings being dewatered to dry[...]

[...]Bayreuth, Germany In a new sludge treatment plant in Bayreuth the sludge from 300,000 PE is dewatered and dried – fully automatically, with the use of exhaust heat and exhaust air treatment. The project is still in the construction phase. The new plant will process the generated sludge from 2016 on. From the dewatering system into the dryer The digester sludge with a DR content of between 2.5 and 3.5% is dewatered by two centrifuges and automatically transported into the solar dryer by screw conveyors.The dry residue is measured automatically by a probe so that polymer consumption can be optimized[...]

[...]As the original designer and manufacturer of the world recognised and respected HUBER STRAINPRESS® pressurised sludge screen, it has been increasingly interesting to us to see the number of different applications where the STRAINPRESS® has been utilised and requested. From its original launch into the market in 1990, with its cast steel casing, chain-drive motors and old stuffing box seals, the unit then underwent a period of innovation in 1999 and the latest design was launched in 2000. The modifications included items such as the whole casing now being manufactured and supplied in 304L stainless[...]

[...]Magilligan, Northern Ireland HUBER Technology successfully completed the NI Water Magilligan WwTW scheme. Project Profile The Magilligan region is located on the north coast of Northern Ireland just north of the town Limvardy. This area is very popular with tourists and incorporates a Blue Flag beach at Benone as well as a significant portion of land designated as a Special Area of Conservation (SAC).It was concluded from an assessment that a single wastewater scheme for the Magilligan region would be the most cost effective solution whilst offering additional qualitative benefits for the area[...]

[...]Kaditz, Germany Hot and greasy – sludge screening with the STRAINPRESS® On the way from a sewage treatment works to an energy park – Stadtentwässerung Dresden undertake a variety of measures on STP Kaditz to achieve this goal. One of these measures is the acceptance and treatment of foreign material for co-fermentation in the digesters. They want to use the energy-rich grease sludge to increase the gas production in the two 10,500 m³ digesters and thus achieve a significantly higher energy production in the two block heat and power plants. The grease separator contents delivered by tanker [...]

[...]Bayreuth, Germany and Lomianki, Poland HUBER solar sludge drying system with sludge feeding and removal on the same gable end – the feed comes back as dry sludge HUBER SE has continued the success story of its solar sludge drying system in 2014. Like on many other sites, whether in Europe or overseas, the SRT system convinced also the customer at Bayreuth in Bavaria and was the winner of the tender competition. The decisive point in favour of the HUBER SRT was that its concept ensured clever use of the scarce space on site. Feeding of the press/wet sludge and removal of the dry granulate takes [...]

[...]Nova Gorica, Slovenia HUBER received the first order for a Belt Dryer BT installation in Slovenia. Besides a number of other HUBER products, the BT 8 will be installed on the sewage treatment plant of the town Nova Gorica in western Slovenia, not far from the Italian border. The dryer is designed for an annual throughput of 9,300 t dewatered sewage sludge. In summer 2014, HUBER received the order to supply the complete equipment for mechanical wastewater treatment and sludge treatment. The mechanical equipment comprises two coarse screens type HUBER Multi-Rake Bar Screen RakeMax®, two fine [...]

[...]Ingolstadt, Germany Two HUBER belt dryers BT were put into operation on STP Ingolstadt in August 2005. The installed total dryer surface is 160 m² which is the same as that of our new dryer type BT 16. The scope of supply of HUBER SE included not only the drying plants but also the sludge bunkers and thick sludge pumps. The exhaust air treatment system has already been installed. Figure 2 shows the complete plant. The special feature of sewage sludge drying on STP Ingolstadt is that the drying process takes place on a very low temperature level. Warm water with a temperature of 53 °C is available[...]

[...]Braunschweig, Germany The "baby" solar dryer is back In 2012, HUBER SE manufactured a mobile solar dryer in a container for Expoval Sludge, a research project supported by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). The dryer was extensively tested in cooperation with the Institute for Sanitary Engineering of the Technical University of Braunschweig in Germany, in Poland and in Colombia. The results achieved with the dryer were summed up in a DWA work sheet on solar sludge drying. The baby solar dryer was recently taken out of the research project and overhauled. In autumn this year[...]

[...]Isle of Man, Great Britain The first HUBER Belt Dryer BT installation in Great Britain went officially into operation recently. On the Isle of Man, up to 12,775 t sewage sludge per year will efficiently be dried from now on. HUBER received the order to build a belt dryer on the Isle of Man at the beginning of 2015. The customer wanted to reduce the energy expenditure for sludge drying and the resulting high disposal costs. The HUBER BT 16 achieves this most impressively. The sewage treatment plant of the town Douglas does not have any sludge digestion facilities. There is therefore no exhaust air [...]
