[...]Wastewater and sludge treatment for the production and processing of textiles and leather Save disposal costs Clean wastewater Minimise residues Separate solids Reduce operating costs Recover wastewater heat Save primary energy Wastewater from textile and leather industries contains high loads of solids, particularly fibres and hair. Washing the raw materials also causes a lot of grit to get into the wastewater. The wastewater is usually highly discoloured and contains high BOD and COD loads, so heavy pollution charges have to be paid. It is therefore economical to reduce these loads on site to [...]
[...]Luzern, Switzerland Due to the increasing building density, cities are generally faced with the problem of lesser and lesser infiltration of rainwater water during storm events and the associated increasing risk of overflowing local sewers. Moreover, road runoff water contains not only grit and gravel but also considerable amounts of eco-toxicologically relevant substances from tyre wear and tar residues, for example heavy metals, such as cadmium, zinc and lead, as well as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons [PAH] and petroleum-derived hydrocarbons [PDH]. During rainfalls, the abrasion particles[...]
[...]On Wednesday, 11 October 2023, HUBER SE welcomed about 35 young professionals from the German water industry at the company headquarters in Berching. The young water management professionals took part in a technical excursion organised by the Bavarian Regional Association of DWA (German Association for Water, Wastewater and Waste) in cooperation with the Bavarian Regional Group of DVGW (Scientific Association for Gas and Water). After the official welcome, the participants were given a plant tour including a company presentation. The excursion was aimed at trainees for wastewater technology, [...]
[...]Treatment of polluted stormwater to protect water and soil Road wastewater treatment plants are used for heavily frequented roads. The task of such a plant is to filter rainwater that runs off roads before it is discharged into a body of water or into the ground. Road run-off is stormwater containing coarser solids such as gravel, sand and litter, as well as significant amounts of finer solids such as abrasion from car tyres (microplastics). Road wastewater occurs whenever it rains, and its quantity depends on the amount of rainfall. Technology for Road Wastewater Treatment Plants Intermediate [...]

[...]South Padre Island, TX, USA In the southernmost part of Texas, not far from the Mexican border and directly on the Gulf of Mexico, lies the headland of South Padre Island. This place is made for holidays, with sun, sand and sea. From February to October, streams of tourists roll there on the fine sandy beach and enjoy the waves and the warmth, which is about 40°C during the day. As there is also a high humidity of over 90%, the best place to spend the day is in the sea or at the pool. The exposed location of South Padre Island has of course also its disadvantage. Many people take a shower several [...]
[...]Barueri, Brazil A comprehensive two-week intensive training course was held at the HUBER Service Academy in preparation for the major Barueri project in Brazil, one of the largest wastewater treatment plant projects in South America. Delivery of the machinery for this project has already begun, comprising a total of 85 units for mechanical wastewater pre-treatment and grit treatment. This includes four different types of screens, for this project and a sister project, namely the HUBER Course Screen TrashMax®, the HUBER Grab Screen TrashLift, the HUBER Multi-Rake Bar Screen RakeMax®, and the [...]
