[...]Berching, Germany On the basis of the worldwide known and well-proven system of HUBER ROTAMAT® fine screens with wedge wire screen basket we developed the ultra-fine ROTAMAT® Perforated Plate Screen RPPS with perforated plate. The two-dimensional screen (perforated plate) ensures the reliable removal of hairs and fibres and avoids that: fibres and hairs hinder the stable operation of membrane plants and increase maintenance requirements, these materials tend to entangle on the membranes and lead to reduced membrane plant efficiency these products form tresses in the wastewater treatment plant, [...]
[...]Bitterfeld Wolfen, Sachsen-Anhalt, Germany The sewage treatment plant Bitterfeld-Wolfen clarifies the municipal wastewater of the sewage treatment association "Westliche Mulde", the industrial wastewaters of the companies P-D-ChemiePark Bitterfeld-Wolfen and Industriepark BAYER Bitterfeld, and the groundwater of MDSE GmbH (large-scale ecological project of the regional authority for the release of soil remediation responsibility of the German Federal Land Saxony-Anhalt). The total capacity of the sewage treatment plant is 586.000 PE (population equivalent). The main wastewater clarification takes [...]
[...]Over the years, the screw presses of the Q-PRESS ® series have become one of the most successful HUBER products. The latest leap in development took place with significantly more wear-resistant and powerful scraper lips and matching, higher-torque gearboxes with reduced electrical energy consumption. Current further development: significantly changed filter geometry The two long-proven sizes 280 and 440.2 will in future be equipped with a significantly increased open filter surface. In order to increase the open filter surface, the first, relatively coarse screen section in the inlet area will[...]
[...]Wendelstein, Germany Since 2008, the ZV zur Abwasserbeseitigung im unteren Schwarzachtal (Lower Schwarzach Valley Sewage Treatment Association) has been retrofitting existing relief structures with screening systems to separate floating and coarse materials. These retrofits contribute significantly to greatly improving the discharge quality of rainwater from the combined sewer system into the receiving water. Installation of a screening plant at the Röthenbacher Straße stormwater tank with overflow In the stormwater tank with overflow at Röthenbacher Straße in Wendelstein, just outside [...]
[...]Huber Technology Foundation We promote the sustainable use of the vital resource water Huber Technology Foundation Awareness and responsibility for water Huber Technology Foundation Our resource water is scarce and, compared to many raw materials and energy sources on this planet, cannot be substituted. Economical use, multiple use and the recovery or reuse of valuable ingredients after use in households, commerce and industry have long been the order of the day nowadays in view of the constantly decreasing resources worldwide. The secure supply of energy is becoming equally important for [...]
[...]Summary The HUBER Disc Dryer RotaDry® is a robust and compact dryer design with a high water evaporation capacity in relation to volume and footprint. It is ideally suited for the partial drying of sewage sludge and for the interaction with a fluidised bed mono-incineration plant. Fully automated, it contributes to a relief of the operating personnel and an optimisation of the combustion of sewage sludge. Effective disc drying supports sewage sludge mono-incineration. A high percentage of phosphorus can be recovered relatively easily from the ashes produced by acid hydroloysis. This is of great[...]

[...]Germany Germany's pioneering role in the fourth treatment stage: More and more wastewater treatment plants are relying on HUBER’s proven technology modules It has been in force since 1 January 2025 – the new EU Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive (UWWD). One of the key points is the comprehensive introduction of the fourth treatment stage in Europe. This affects all wastewater treatment plants larger than 150,000 PE and larger than 10,000 PE in sensitive areas, which must be defined by the member states by the end of 2030. Germany, above all Baden-Württemberg, has taken on an important [...]
[...]Uhldingen-Mühlhofen, Germany In August 2023, after more than two years of construction, one of the most cutting-edge systems for the removal of trace substances was successfully put into operation at the Uhldingen-Mühlhofen association sewage treatment plant. At the heart of the new treatment stage is a combined process of ozonation and activated carbon filtration on a technical scale that had not yet been implemented to date. 24 HUBER CONTIFLOW® GAC activated carbon filters and HUBER TT7 pressure door HUBER supplied the two-lane activated carbon stage with a total of 24 CONTIFLOW® GAC activated[...]
