[...]Vilshofen, Germany At the start of 2026, a comprehensive one-off plant maintenance was carried out on the HUBER machines at the Vilshofen sewage treatment works in Lower Bavaria. Designed for a population equivalent of 56,000, the plant is operated by Vilshofen Municipal Wastewater Services. During normal plant operation, one or two staff members are usually on site. Since 2007, the sewage treatment works has used two HUBER Rotary Drum Fine Screen ROTAMAT® Ro2 1000/5 units and one HUBER Coanda Grit Washer RoSF4/2. These are supplemented by two vortex washers from a third-party manufacturer. As part[...]
[...]Berching, Germany Whether microscreening, pile fabric filtration or GAC adsorption In recent years, hardly any other topic has been discussed more intensively than the introduction of the 4th treatment stage for the targeted removal of trace substances. Even though there are currently no binding legal requirements in Germany, more and more municipalities and wastewater associations are now considering how this treatment stage could be implemented in the near future, taking into account all individual requirements and boundary conditions. In addition to wastewater composition, space conditions and [...]
[...]Mannheim, Germany First of three HUBER Belt Dryer BT 22 units in regular operation Back in 2017, HUBER received the order to modernise the sludge drying system of Stadtentwässerung Mannheim on the site of the Mannheim wastewater treatment plant. Three HUBER Belt Dryer BT units of size 22 replace the two older drum dryers. The modernisation of the sewage sludge drying system not only includes the dismantling of the old drum dryers and the construction of the new belt dryers. The entire heating concept was also adapted to the new medium-temperature belt dryers. The objective of Stadtentwässerung[...]
[...]Counteracting rising operating costs and quality requirements through digital solutions Identify and exploit optimization potentials through data evaluation HUBER Cloud Solution HCS as a basis for future additional services The challenges in wastewater treatment are constantly growing and the adequate treatment of wastewater and sludge at wastewater treatment plants is becoming increasingly difficult.

As a result, the[...]
[...]Machines for Screenings Treatment Optimal screenings treatment systems for any application Wash Presses Screenings Compactor Screenings treatment with high dewatering efficiency and maximum washout degree The first step in wastewater treatment is normally the removal of solids from the wastewater flow by means of screens. The removed screenings contain household waste, faecal matter, toilet paper and mineral solids. The screenings volume depends, not only on the separation size of the screen, but also on the type of sewer system. The solids content of municipal screenings varies between 10 % [...]
[...]HUBER is pleased to announce that, after a competitive bidding process, the $60M dollar La Crosse 2021 Wastewater Treatment Facility Upgrades selected HUBER for several elements of the project including biosolids drying, sludge screening and a new headworks screen. On the headworks side of things, the project is being driven by two failing comminutors, which were routinely flooding and causing significant bypass issues. To overcome this issue, and still work within the very limited space available on the operation deck, La Crosse selected the HUBER Multi-Rake bar Screen RakeMax® CF. The [...]
[...]The Bavarian State Ministry of Economic Affairs and Media, Energy and Technology has again announced the 50 strongest growing medium-sized companies for this year. The Bavarian environmental company HUBER SE is one of them. Companies who want to make it to the top 50 must have achieved an above average increase in their number of employees and turnover in the past years. Bavarian Economics Minister Ilse Aigner pointed out that the "Bavarian economy could never be as dynamic and innovative as it is without the outstanding performance of Bavaria's medium-sized companies. Nearly 40% of the total [...]

[...]The advanced treatment of sewage sludge or industrial residual sludge is increasingly gaining in importance also for industrial customers. Whereas, until recently, the common strategy was to pass the sludge on to disposal companies at low costs, this has now become more and more complicated, difficult and especially more expensive due to the modified and now more stringent German Fertilizer Regulation and Waste Sewage Sludge Ordinance and because of the generally increasing costs in the disposal industry. Therefore, industrial customers increasingly concern themselves with strategies how to additionally[...]
