[...]Leibnitz, Austria Leibnitzerfeld Wasserversorgung GmbH has set itself the target to ensure the supraregional water supply in South and Southeast Styria. With an annual water production of about 3 million m³ and daily peaks of up to 15,000 m³ they supply the drinking water for 39 municipalities and three joint communities with a total of of 100,000 PE. In total, they operate 11 well system, 42 elevated reservoirs (of which 20 of their own with a capacity of 10,000 m³), 60 pressure increasing plants, and a network of 170 km transport lines and 139 km supply lines. Furthermore, they network with the [...]
[...]Guelph, Canada “Nothing slips by the RakeMax®. Its operation is absolutely flawless. After three years, we look at the components in amazement because they are ageless – it’s as if they were just installed yesterday.” Majde Qaqish, Project Engineer for the City of Guelph WWTP It had become obvious to The City of Guelph that it was time to replace several of the components in its treatment process. Project leaders also wanted to take the opportunity to upgrade its treatment processes by implementing leading edge technology. Working with consultants, the City thoroughly researched solutions to [...]
[...]Guangzhou, China The 16th Asia Olympics will take place at Guangzhou (Guangdong province), China, from 12 to 27 November. They are the biggest sport event in Asia and held every four years. All Asians, in a fever of excitement, are waiting for the Games to begin, so the venues will certainly be well attended. For such a major sporting event as the Asia Olympics the local infrastructure needs to be modernized and expanded. This includes also wastewater disposal and treatment plants, the capacity of which needs to be extended and their technical standard improved to state-of-the-art. HUBER SE [...]
[...]Sharjah, UAE Population growth in Dubai and adjacent Sharjah is a consequence of rapid development. Population growth, enforced growing wealth and luxury, generate great strain on the infrastructure of these cities. All existing wastewater treatment plants are heavily overloaded. Several treatment plants are presently in the process of becoming extended and upgraded, but even when the construction and installation will be finished, the plants will hardly be able to treat the enormous and ever growing wastewater flows. Because of freshwater scarcity in this arid region, treated wastewater is viewed[...]

[...]Schallstadt, Germany The energy turnaround has already been under discussion for several years. The events on the energy market in 2022 at the latest have now made it very clear to the public that there is a very great need for reorientation on the “heat market”. The discussions about the right fuel are in full swing. HUBER SE has a solution that does not require any fuel at all: it is based on exploiting the energetic potential of wastewater using the HUBER ThermWin system. Energy from wastewater replaces renewable and fossil fuels In Schallstadt in Baden-Württemberg (Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald[...]
[...]Screw presses have been proving their worth for many years at wastewater treatment plants with population equivalents ≤ 100,000 mainly because the simple operating principle offers advantages compared to other continuously operating dewatering units such as decanter centrifuges: The use of the sludge feed pressure (0 – 300 mbar) as a control variable enables automatic adjustment of the machine and flocculant settings to fluctuations in the sludge consistency. Time-consuming readjustments by the operator are thus reduced to a minimum, and the dewatering system can typically be operated unattended[...]
[...]Isle La Plume, WI, USA In 2021, HUBER Technology Inc., the Denver, North Carolina-based subsidiary of HUBER SE, was awarded the contract for the modernisation of the La Crosse wastewater treatment plant located on Isle La Plume. The city of La Crosse, with a population of around 52,000, is located in the state of Wisconsin, which is situated in the Midwest of the USA. Total investment volume of around 60 million US dollars The scope of supply includes a HUBER Multi-Rake Bar Screen RakeMax® CF in the screen building in the inlet to the WWTP, a HUBER Belt Dryer BT 18 for sewage sludge drying, and a [...]
[...]Emschermündung, Germany The hydraulic capacity of the wastewater treatment plant Emschermündung is 30 m³/s. This is a gigantic flow, larger than of any other German, perhaps even European, wastewater treatment plant. The wastewater arrives at the plant not via conventional sewers, but its inflow is the river Emscher. The treated effluent of the plant enters the river Rhine. This is the reason why the plant’s name is Emschermündung, meaning “mouth of the Emscher”. The river Emscher flows through the northern part of the old industrial heartland of Germany, the Ruhr region. The Emscher river is [...]
