[...]Amsterdam, Netherlands When the Dutch sewage treatment plant Amsterdam-West was modernised in 2006 it was redesigned for the treatment capacity of 1,000,000 PE. In addition, more than another 1,000,000 PE external sludge can be treated there. In the past, particularly the treatment of primary sludge was a problem in terms of the operating reliability of the entire sludge line. The solids contained in the different types of pre-treated sludge and from the transport tanks cause high wear and lead to unforeseeable maintenance work requirements on pumps, digestor internals and sludge dewatering systems. In order to remove the solids from the sludge four HUBER STRAINPRESS® units were installed and successfully commissioned in 2011 via the company Dutch Spiral. The supply included removal systems and screenings containers. Up to 75 m³/h primary sludge with a solids content of 1 to 6 percent is pumped through each STRAINPRESS® unit. The solids are retained by a conical-shaped screen with a perforation of 5 mm. When the screen surface is blinded with solid material, a filtration resistance develops on the screen surface. When the filtration resistance exceeds a certain pressure difference a removal screw inside the screen drum automatically starts to operate and cleans the screen surface. In the same process step the solids retained in the screen are compressed against a pneumatically operated pressure cone and then discharged. The screened primary sludge is transported to the digestor by the pressure of the feed pump. At Amsterdam-West the dewatered solids with a dry substance content of 40% are dropped into two troughs where the screenings from two machines are collected prior to being discharged into two odour-tight containers. The screenings are incinerated in an incineration plant that is installed directly next to the sewage treatment works. The high efficiency of the HUBER STRAINPRESS® units becomes especially evident when comparing them to the four screens that are installed in the STP inlet and have a bar spacing of 6 mm and width of 4 m each: The screens separate an annual screenings volume of 125 tons dry substance. A downstream screenings press compacts the screenings to a dewatering degree of 25%. In comparison, the downstream STRAINPRESS® units separate 600 tons dry substance a year, which is five times the volume the screens are able to remove. The integrated dewatering mechanism constantly achieves dewatering degrees of 40% and thus can produce a combustible product. Since the STRAINPRESS® is a completely odour-encased system, neither sludge nor screenings cause a corrosive or explosive atmosphere inside the building. The machines can nevertheless be completely opened very easily for inspection or maintenance. Since the installation of the HUBER sludge screening systems at the beginning of 2011 maintenance costs and shutdowns have been reduced significantly on STP Amsterdam-West. The operating reliability of HUBER STRAINPRESS® systems can be witnessed not only on the reference sites Amsterdam and Den Haag in the Netherlands but also on many other sites all over the world, such as Berlin, Barcelona, San Diego, Seoul, Marrakesh, etc. Benefits of STRAINPRESS® Sludgecleaner: High separation efficiency Significantly reduced operating costs Compact, fully enclosed design Proven in thousands of installations[...]

[...]Increasing operational safety for pumping stations Pumps and lifting units are used where wastewater needs to be lifted to a higher level so that it can be passed further on by gravity. However, the solids contained in the wastewater (coarse materials, foreign matter, fibres) often lead to a failure of the units used, as they cause operational downtimes due to clogging and blockages. Labour-intensive manual cleaning is required to restore the function of the units or, in the worst case, they even need to be replaced. To ensure trouble-free and reliable operation of a pumping or lift station, the installation of an upstream screening system is the best solution. HUBER has special screens and screening systems in its product range, which are especially suitable for pumping stations, shaft structures or lift stations and can be used both for sewage treatment plants and in the sewerage system. This increases the operational safety and availability of the pumping stations and significantly reduces material and personnel costs. For smaller applications, the HUBER Pumping Stations Screen ROTAMAT® RoK4 is particularly suitable, and for larger applications the HUBER Multi-Rake Bar Screen RakeMax ® , the HUBER Multi-Rake Bar Screen RakeMax® CF and the HUBER Grab Screen TrashLift .[...]
[...]Reducing screenings volume and disposal costs The screenings from municipal wastewater treatment mainly consist of household waste-like materials, faeces, paper and mineral particles. The screenings volume depends on the aperture size of the screening system. The solids content of municipal, untreated screenings varies from 5 – 20 %, depending on the type of screen. The organics contained in the screenings amount on average to approx. 90 % of the dry residue [DR]. The objectives of screenings treatment are: Dewatering of the screenings and thus reduction of screenings weight and volume. This also reduces the disposal costs for the screenings. Return of easily degradable carbon to the wastewater treatment process. Improving hygiene conditions for sewage treatment plant personnel. Wash Presses The best type of screenings treatment is screenings wash presses By adding wash water and mechanical energy, faeces and suspended organic matter are washed out of the screenings in a wash press and returned to the wastewater, thus positively influencing the C / N ratio of the wastewater to be treated. After washing, the screenings are well compacted so that the water content in the washed screenings is significantly reduced. Depending on the selected washing process and press type, a weight and volume reduction of up to 80 % can be achieved. The weight and volume reduction also means a reduction in disposal volume and thus directly influences the costs that have to be paid for the disposal of screenings. HUBER has extensive experience in the design of screenings treatment plants and has different types of wash presses in its product program. HUBER also has the right solution for transporting screenings to the screenings treatment facility and feeding screenings from containers.[...]
