[...]Complete Plants are complete systems for the mechanical treatment of small to medium amounts of wastewater from 10 to 300 l/s. Basically, a Complete Plant consists of two main components: screen and grit trap. As an option, other systems can be added, such as screenings treatment units, aeration systems or a grease trap. Since 2000, mechanical state-of-the-art wastewater treatment has additionally comprised a grit washing plant so that the screen, grit trap and grit washer are usually mentioned in the same breath. In case of conventional installations with ‘independent’ units the optimal [...]

[...]Pachacútec , Peru HUBER supplies the technology for solar sewage sludge drying for the wastewater treatment plant in Pachacútec. The plant, located more than 10,000 kilometres from HUBER’s Berching site, is already the second project in Peru using the innovative drying technology with the HUBER Sludge Turner SOLSTICE® and solar energy. HUBER supplies innovative components for sustainable sewage sludge drying using solar energy HUBER supplies three HUBER Sludge Turner SOLSTICE® 11 units and the conveying system consisting of two HUBER Screw Conveyors Ro8 T 355 with a total length of about 70 metres[...]

[...]Over the past ten years HUBER Screw Press units have become the worldwide leading products among the screw presses on the market. Numerous experiences with screw presses on almost thousand installations in various fields of application and long-term trust-based contacts to many plant operators result now in an extensive improvement in screw press efficiency. The new Q-PRESS® excels for several features: Axially dividable filter baskets are optionally available, they facilitate maintenance work significantly. Massive components, such as the screw shaft and some filter elements, can remain in the [...]

[...]Rome, Italy Seven HUBER Sludgecleaner STRAINPRESS® units for improved wastewater treatment for 3.5 million inhabitants: HUBER to renew sludge screening at all three major WWTPs in Rome Rome, which is worldwide known as “The Eternal City”, is the biggest and also capital city of Italy counting more than 4.200.000 inhabitants. As in other metropolitan cities, the issue of efficient management of infrastructure and investment in technological innovation to achieve ever-higher quality is crucial. The entire water cycle from spring water to waste water treatment for the Lazio region is managed by[...]

[...]„There is one thing that is for sure: The age of cheap energy is over!“ Nobuo Tanaka, executive director of IEA (International Energy Agency) This describes with few words why it is becoming increasingly important to recover used energy. The below examples of projects that use wastewater and process water heat show how energy recovery can successfully be realised in practice. Energy recovery from vapour water In sewage treatment plants vapour water is generated during the sludge dewatering process and is also present in the wash water of the exhaust air treatment systems of sewage sludge drying plants[...]

[...]Berching, Germany Sewage sludge disposal is a key issue on sewage treatment works. Irrespective of the way of sludge utilization, sludge weight and volume are the main causes for high costs. State-of-the-art technology offers several dewatering options but most of these solutions disregard the rich energy potential of filtrate water. The wastewater heat exchanger HUBER RoWin utilises this energy potential. The primary goal of sewage sludge dewatering on wastewater treatment plants is to increase sludge solids contents. With the presently available state-of-the-art technology dry substance contents of [...]

[...]Arosa, Swiss A CO2-neutral hotel with HUBER technology? Yes, Valsana The Valsana Hotel & Apartment Arosa sets new standards for its sustainable energy concept and is heated 100% without fossil fuels. The lifestyle boutique hotel in the popular holiday destination of Arosa in the Swiss Alps has already proven in 2017 that sustainability can be successfully accomplished in harmony with nature and customer needs with an integrated approach in the upscale hotel industry. This pioneering achievement by the Tschuggen Hotel Group as owner of the Valsana was implemented long before the climate debate[...]

[...]The HUBER Heat Exchanger RoWin is unique of its kind. The wastewater heat exchanger brilliantly combines excellent heat transfer and automatic surface cleaning. A screw ensures automatic removal of sediments. The RoWin heat exchanger can therefore be used for any sort of wastewater, though municipal wastewater is certainly the most frequent application. The ‘raw material’ wastewater is taken directly from the sewer or downstream of the mechanical treatment stage on the WWTP. But the thermal energy contained within the wastewater does not get lost on a WWTP. Although the wastewater is in [...]

[...]Toronto, Canada Noventa Energy Partners relies on HUBER ThermWin Noventa Energy Partners is using innovative technology to reduce the negative environmental impact of the existing energy supply for the Toronto Western Hospital. Over the life of this project, Toronto Western Hospital will see a cumulative reduction in greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 169,000 tonnes - equivalent to the annual CO2 emissions of approximately 52,000 cars. Mayor of the City of Toronto: "Great initiative to tackle climate change" These figures are matched by the statement of John Tory, Mayor of the City of [...]

[...]Berching, Germany HUBER Chemicals Dosing DIGIT-DOSE setting new standards for the efficient operation of flotation plants Industrial wastewater treatment cannot be imagined anymore without flotation technology. Flotation ensures that suspended matter, grease and particulate pollutants are effectively removed from production wastewater. If also dissolved pollutants need to be converted to particulate matter, precipitants and flocculants are added. Such additives can enormously increase cleaning efficiency, they are however also the major cost factor in the operating costs for a wastewater treatment[...]
