[...]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 [...]

[...]Berching, Germany How it all began... In the 1950s and 1960s, manhole covers in "painted steel" and "galvanised steel" were proven products of the HUBER company and the covers were mainly manufactured for water pipeline construction. At the beginning of the 1970s, the brothers Hans and Karl-Josef Huber, the company owners at the time, recognised the desire and need of many customers for a low-maintenance manhole cover that did not require maintenance work such as regular painting of the surface. The idea of using stainless steel for this purpose was born and was implemented on a trial basis. At that [...]
