[...]Varna, Bulgaria The Bulgarian Black Sea Coast along the city of Varna with 300,000 residents is an important economic factor, especially due to its touristic potential. The European Union decided in 2002 to give aid money for the protection of the Black Sea, in particular for upgrading and building new local sewage treatment plants. The capacity of the sewage treatment plant at Varna could therefore be expanded to 450,000 PE and equipped with state-of-the-art technology. The main intention was to minimise the direct discharge of untreated wastewater to the Black Sea. They wanted to achieve that [...]

[...]Faroe Islands The Faroe Islands are probably known mainly to nature lovers with a penchant for rather unusual destinations. So it was initially something interesting and different for a change when HUBER received an enquiry in mid-2017 for a faecal sludge treatment plant for predominantly domestic sludge. At least 10,000 t of sludge were to be received annually, screened and then dewatered to ≥ 35 % dry residue (DR). Transport with suction and tanker vehicles What makes this project special is first and foremost the input DR: The sludge is collected island-wide with suction and tanker vehicles[...]

[...]Greenville, USA The City of Greenville’s Wastewater Reclamation Center had been operating in a “vintage 1953” facility and – despite a couple of upgrades – it was still behind peer facilities in the modernization of its equipment and processes. Just a few years ago, a new facility was built beside the existing facility. The old plant was demolished upon the new facility’s completion. Updates driven by new technologies and equipment greatly improved Greenville’s operations. Making fact-based choices Greenville researched industry standards in all areas and brought in those that best fit its [...]
[...]Star, Idaho, USA The Star Water and Sewer District knew change was going to come. The plant’s existing in-channel grinder technology wasn’t just aging, it was obsolete. The unit was also in need of repairs that could force two weeks of downtime. Regardless of what they did to “fix” the existing unit, its performance would lag behind newer screening technology. Consultants and engineers pointed the district to HUBER and its ROTAMAT® STAR fine screen as a replacement that would take the plant into the future. The single-most important result that Star Sewer and Water District Waste Water [...]
