[...]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 Energy-efficient and powerful sludge dewatering The outdated and [...]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 These have now been replaced by a new HUBER Rotary Drum Fine Screen ROTAMAT® Ro2 size 1600 with a 3 mm bar spacing, a HUBER Screw Conveyor Ro8 T and HUBER Screenings Wash Press WAP® SL.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[...]

[...]Munich, Germany As part of Munich's Education Construction Initiative, Germany's largest municipal education construction programme, it was decided in 2020 to build a new daycare center with three nursery groups in the Freimann/Kleinlappen district. The chosen location was an undeveloped plot of land on Josef-Wirth-Weg. A special feature of the building site is a sewer that runs slightly elevated in a dam to the north of the property. This sewer is not just a simple collection channel, but one of the main inflows to Munich's Gut Großlappen sewage treatment plant. Sustainability was a guiding [...]

[...]Heiligenblut, Austria The Heiligenblut wastewater treatment plant, which has a capacity of 8,250 PE, was built at the foot of the Großglockner, Austria's highest mountain, in 1986. It treats the wastewater of the entire municipality of Heiligenblut (at an altitude of 1,288 m), including Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höhe, which is the highest point of the Grossglockner High Alpine Road (at an altitude of 2,369 m). The sewage treatment plant is located next to the Mölltal federal road in the village of Rojach, at an altitude of 1,098 meters. The challenge: limited installation space and high requirements The [...]

[...]Shanghai, China A total of twelve HUBER Fine Screens ROTAMAT® Ro1/2600 were supplied for the second construction phase of WWTP Zhuyu There is hardly another city worldwide that is growing with such a breath-taking speed as Shanghai, China’s boom town. But such rapid growth comes at a high price. Shanghai’s infrastructure can hardly cope. It happens time and again that the power stations can not supply enough electricity, or that even the 12 lane main highway is jammed to a stand-still. Of course, sewers and treatment plants are also under strain and the city administration is doing its best [...]

[...]Grand Rapids, MI USA An alternative for ageing scraper bridges. They work constantly, know no weekends and are exposed to wind and rain. They are familiar with wear and corrosion and are grateful for a few drops of lubricating oil. We are talking about the scraper bridges of grit channels. When the ravages of time take their toll At some point, after what feels like two sewage works operator’s lifetimes, the time comes when this ‘vehicle’ is no longer fit for purpose. The concrete of the grit channel could certainly withstand the same amount of time again, but the machinery has had its day.[...]

[...]Plants for sludge treatment (e.g. HUBER Screw Press Q-PRESS ® , HUBER Disc Thickener S-Disc) or for pre- and secondary treatment of industrial and municipal wastewater (e.g. HUBER Flotation Plant HDF) are usually purchased in Germany. This involves prior planning, authorisation, construction of infrastructure and buildings, as well as permanent responsibility for the acquired plant technology. In addition, the process from idea to implementation often takes several years. Industrial plant operators, in particular, increasingly wish and demand to rent rather than permanently purchase machinery [...]

[...]Detmold, Germany The Detmold wastewater treatment plant has replaced its old step screen with a modern HUBER Multi-Rake Bar Screen RakeMax® J. The decision was made in favor of HUBER SE, who realized the entire project from start to finish – from preparing the drawings to installing and successfully commissioning the new screen system. The new HUBER RakeMax® J impresses with its high efficiency and reliability in coarse and fine screening of wastewater. Thanks to its robust design and innovative technology, it contributes significantly to improving screening efficiency and ensures the wastewater[...]

[...]Germany Membrane systems, especially membrane bioreactors (MBR), are wastewater treatment technologies that combine biological processes with membrane filtration. These systems are used in some sewage treatment plants instead of the conventional activated sludge process. A typical MBR system consists of a biological reactor in which microorganisms break down organic matter and a membrane filtration unit that separates the purified water from the solids. Solids separation prior to membrane filtration To ensure optimum performance, membranes must be protected from large solids. For this purpose, [...]

[...]Wendelstein, Germany Since 2008, the ZV zur Abwasserbeseitigung im unteren Schwarzachtal (Lower Schwarzach Valley Sewage Treatment Association) has been retrofitting existing relief structures with screening systems to separate floating and coarse materials. These retrofits contribute significantly to greatly improving the discharge quality of rainwater from the combined sewer system into the receiving water. Installation of a screening plant at the Röthenbacher Straße stormwater tank with overflow In the stormwater tank with overflow at Röthenbacher Straße in Wendelstein, just outside [...]
