[...]HUBER SE receives order for the largest sewage treatment plant in Northern Ireland With its 280,000 inhabitants Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland, is the second largest city on the island of Ireland. Situated at the mouth of the river Lagan in the Bay of Belfast the city represents one of Northern Ireland's 26 administrative districts. Three of the six million Irishmen live in the Dublin-Belfast corridor, along the motorway. In 2011, HUBER SE supplied already the complete mechanical pre-treatment equipment for Dublin, the biggest city on the island of Ireland. Now we have received the order [...]
[...]Munich, Germany Climate-neutral, solar sewage sludge drying is a globally used and proven technology to reduce the amount of sludge produced by all kinds of wastewater treatment plants in a sustainable and resource-saving way. Solar drying not only reduces the mass by approx. 70%, the dried sludge is also stable and odourless and opens up various disposal options. Solar sewage sludge drying reduces costs over the long term. HUBER will exhibit the HUBER Sludge Turner FloorRunner for the first time in Munich at the IFAT, the world's leading trade fair for environmental, water and wastewater management[...]
[...]Manholes fulfil an important task in water supply and wastewater disposal. They are used for example where shut-off fittings in pipelines must be accessible, or to control sections of very long pipelines, and for aeration/deaeration or access to complex installations (e.g. well shafts, pressure reduction shafts, and many other). Safe access must be ensured in each individual application. The operators of manhole structures are responsible themselves for the security of their manholes! Operating staff has to observe numerous instructions that should avoid accidents if applied correctly. Any work to[...]
[...]Germany In times of global uncertainty, rising raw material prices and growing environmental requirements, the recycling of plastics is becoming increasingly important. However, producing new materials from fossil fuels is often still cheaper than recycling. This makes the quality of the recycled material and the cost-effectiveness of the entire plastic recycling process all the more crucial. This is precisely where HUBER comes in. Our technologies for treating process water and sludge provide the basis for sustainable and economical recycling processes. Advantages of HUBER technology based on [...]
[...]Kodersdorf, Germany Kodersdorf in Saxony is located on the White Schöps River and is characterised by a charming landscape, nestled between the Königshainer Mountains and the Upper Lusatian pond landscape in the vicinity of Görlitz. The sewage treatment plant in the industrial area has a capacity of 7,500 PE and aerobic sludge stabilisation. The plant was expanded from 4,500 PE to 7,500 PE in 2023. The expansion of capacity also necessitated the construction of a second sludge storage facility and a stationary sludge dewatering system. To ensure efficient sludge disposal for the future, the sewage [...]
[...]Berching HUBER has been committed to providing innovative wastewater treatment solutions for cruise ships for many years, contributing directly to the protection of the world's oceans. Over 200 HUBER sludge screening and dewatering systems have already been installed for maritime applications. These ‘floating wastewater treatment plants’ are an indispensable part of modern cruise ships, as operating in coastal areas is not permitted without strict compliance with wastewater limits. A team from Wärtsilä Water & Waste in England visited Berching A particular highlight was the operator training course[...]
[...]The city of Nuremberg has two sewage treatment plants in the city centre. One is the Nuremberg I STP on Adolf-Braun-Straße and the other is Nuremberg II on Gertrudstraße. Both plants process the wastewater of the city of Nuremberg and rely on HUBER's sustainable and efficient machine technology, particularly for mechanical pre-treatment of the wastewater. At STP I, the screen and grit chamber are from HUBER, and the screening system at StP II is also from HUBER. In the past, HUBER had already supplied several of its WAP® wash presses to the two sewage treatment plants. This provided valuable insights[...]
[...]Pöndorf, Austria Pöndorf, located in western Upper Austria, is home to a historical landmark: the former border wall that marked the boundary between Bavaria and Upper Austria for 342 years, from 1437 to 1779. The Maier butcher's shop is also a Pöndorf landmark, renowned for its excellent products throughout the country for generations. It already had two mechanical wastewater pre-treatment systems, one of which was for livestock truck wash water. Unexpected sediment accumulation During the last aeration tank inspection, the municipal sewage treatment plant in Pöndorf, with a capacity of 7,850 [...]
[...]Villach, Austria For many decades, the coarse screens designed as direct current screens served their purpose in the Villach sewage treatment plant, which has a capacity of 250,000 PE. During rainfall events, it often happened that the resulting amounts of screenings could no longer be conveyed because the single rake was unable to hold them. The reason for this was that the clearing interval lasted more than one minute – a circumstance that led to the accumulation of screenings in front of the screen during a flushing surge, which in turn often resulted in the collapse of the screening system. [...]
[...]Bickenbach, Germany After around three years of construction, the quaternary treatment stage at the Bickenbach wastewater treatment plant was officially commissioned on 2 April in the presence of numerous representatives from business and politics. The quaternary treatment stage in Bickenbach treats up to 150 litres of wastewater per second and will in future reliably retain the largest proportion of hazardous and persistent micropollutants such as pharmaceutical residues, hormones, biocides and household chemicals. Minister Hofmann: ‘Today is a good day for Bickenbach, for the whole region, for [...]
