[...]Germany HUBER offers more than just machines; we provide tailor-made solutions for complex challenges. Our pre-sales services support industrial customers throughout the entire process, from initial contact to final implementation, with a particular focus on flotation, sludge dewatering and screening. The focus is on individual adaptations that meet each customer's specific requirements. Early insights through in-depth laboratory analyses In our laboratory and during on-site analyses and tests, we examine processes such as flotation, sludge dewatering and screening to check the feasibility [...]
[...]Spain Spain and the wider Mediterranean region experience intense rainfall repeatedly within very short time periods. This has increased over the last decade. During such events, when several hundred millimeters of rain fall in a short space of time, the ground can no longer absorb the water. This is particularly the case when the heavy rainfall follows a long period of hot weather with no precipitation. Even the smallest streams can quickly turn into frightening rivers that sweep everything away, causing great damage to people and the environment. Recent events in the greater Valencia area in 2024 [...]
[...]Weißenberge, Germany Water is becoming an increasingly scarce resource, even in Germany. As climate change progresses, conflicts over water resources will continue to escalate, particularly in water-intensive agriculture. As part of the ‘HypoWave+’ project, a resource-efficient hydroponic system for water reuse in regional vegetable production was installed and scientifically monitored for the first time in Germany in 2024. Wastewater as a valuable resource for irrigation ’The special feature of the HypoWave system is that we obtain high-quality treated irrigation water from municipal [...]
[...]Øystese, Norway I began my dual Bachelor's degree in Biological and Environmental Process Engineering at HUBER and the East Bavarian University of Applied Sciences in Amberg-Weiden in September 2021. The degree programme focuses primarily on natural sciences and engineering subjects such as fluid mechanics, mechanical and thermal process engineering, and water and wastewater treatment. In addition to theory, several practical projects must also be completed during the study-free periods. Practical experience at the HUBER Technology Center I had the advantage of being able to gain practical [...]
[...]Rednitzhembach, Germany HUBER was awarded the contract in early 2024 to supply and install a HUBER Rotary Drum Fine Screen ROTAMAT® Ro2 with a downstream HUBER Wash Press WAP® for renewing the STW’s screening system. These have now been in operation since the end of August 2024. Technical challenge and solution in the screen channel A particular challenge in this project was that the screen channel had to be widened from 600 mm to 1000 mm in the area of the screen basket. In order to minimize conversion time, which included demolishing the old channel and continuing to operate the sewage treatment[...]
[...]Regen, Germany The town Regen in the administrative district of Lower Bavaria, is also known as a climatic health resort and boasts numerous sights, buildings and natural monuments. Regular events include the annual Pichelsteiner Festival. Named after a traditional dish, it has grown to become the largest festival in the Bavarian Forest and a major attraction in the region. This makes it all the more important to have a fully functional 24-hour wastewater treatment plant, such as the Regen STP, in place for every event. Energy-efficient and powerful sludge dewatering The outdated and [...]
[...]Schnaittachtal, Germany The Schnaittachtal sewage treatment plant has been in operation for almost 50 years and currently employs six male and one female sewage treatment operators. For many years, the plant has relied on HUBER machines for mechanical wastewater treatment, such as the HUBER Screenings Wash Press WAP® Ro4-OS, HUBER Screw Conveyor Ro8 and HUBER STEP SCREEN. These have now been replaced by a new HUBER Rotary Drum Fine Screen ROTAMAT® Ro2 size 1600 with a 3 mm bar spacing, a HUBER Screw Conveyor Ro8 T and HUBER Screenings Wash Press WAP® SL. A quarter of a century in service In service[...]
