[...]Houten, Netherlands It is an ideal location for advanced wastewater treatment: HUBER, through its Dutch representative Dutch Spiral B.V., supplies proven stainless steel equipment from its Safe Access Solutions (SAS) business unit for the Netherlands' first wastewater ozonation plant. The scope of supply includes five HUBER Access Covers TT8a and three HUBER Pressure-Tight Doors TT7. Residues of chemical substances in drinking water Dutch drinking water is among the world's best due to its intensive purification. However, increasingly precise analytical methods show that residues of chemical [...]

[...]Echthausen, Germany Wickede-Echthausen waterworks in the Ruhr Valley was built in 1942. About 35 hectares are available there for drinking water production. The waterworks belong to Wasserwerke Westfalen (WWW), a subsidiary of DEW21 and GELSENWASSER which produce drinking water for 1.5 million people with their about 138 employees. Six waterworks between Wickede and Witten treat the water of the river Ruhr and make it available as drinking water. The supply area includes parts of the southern Münsterland region, the central and eastern parts of the Ruhr Valley and the northern Sauerland area. In [...]

[...]New pressure doors? Hasn't HUBER successfully manufactured a large number of pressure doors for a long time already? That's right – since the early eighties about 250 to 300 a year. What new features would make them better? The pressure doors (TT7) we have produced by now are laid out for a limited static load of up to 10 m water column. The feedback we get from the market, from suggestions, predictions or even concrete inquiries, we know that this pressure resistance will not be sufficient any more for many future building projects. A pressure resistance of up to 30 m water column could [...]

[...]Utzenaich, Austria HUBER air filter plants are able to achieve separation efficiencies in excess of 99.95% In some water chambers condensation drops occur on the ceiling and walls. This should generally be prevented through sufficient insulation of the ceiling, sloping ceilings or through special coatings. Frequently, however, the problem cannot be solved with static methods. In 2011 already, we published a report about our experience with retrofitting forced ventilation systems in the elevated reservoir Utzenaich in Austria. When the reservoir with two rectangular chambers with 250 m³ capacity[...]

[...]For the protection of our most valuable resource – water Sustainability is of greatest importance in the field of water supply when investments are planned to modernise and refurbish elevated reservoirs, wells and pressure increasing plants. HUBER has convincing solutions to offer, one of them is the technically mature and high-quality safety door RC3. Many of this type of door have meanwhile been installed on a number of sites. Customers appreciate particularly its functionality and attractive appearance. In most cases, the doors can be installed without problems by the customers' qualified [...]

[...]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[...]
