[...]The first HUBER service consultant tour in New Zealand, organised and planned by our long-time service consultant Martin Burger, marked a significant milestone for HUBER. With a time difference of 12 hours and a flight time of approx. 22 hours, he was faced with great challenges, which he successfully mastered together with colleagues from our partner company Hydroflux at the end of 2024. In his report, Martin Burger talks about an unforgettable journey: ‘New Zealand, known for its active volcanoes and impressive landscapes, provided the setting for a tour full of technical highlights and [...]

[...]Over 100 completed orders, a total of almost 300 machines in operation in 22 different countries and yet there are still applications where there is a need for a trial. "Trial makes perfect", be it on municipal wastewater treatment plants or for special industrial sludge, the spectrum is diverse. For this purpose, HUBER provides a trial unit of the Sludge Turner SOLSTICE®, called "HUBER Baby SOLSTICE®", on a reduced scale. In the field for over 10 years The trial unit has now been in operation for over 10 years. After trials in Germany, the plant was mainly used in South America. Since its return[...]

[...]Muta Mazar , Jordan Until now, most of the sewage sludge produced in Jordan has been stored in open areas or in landfills that are usually unsuitable for this purpose. This approach has a negative impact on the quality of the surface and groundwater in the affected regions and also causes high emissions due to the release of methane. In practice, it also means that existing resources remain unutilised. Improving sewage sludge management With the aim of improving the economic and ecological sustainability of sewage sludge management in the country, similar projects are currently being planned in many[...]

[...]Digestate is able to play an important role in soil replenishment, but can require some processing before use as an alternative to mineral fertilisers. The Problem AD plants receive a combination of different food wastes from varying sources, with some coming in retail packaging or containing significant plastics contamination. To utilise the waste, material goes through a de-packaging plant designed to separate the valuable food waste from the packaging. Unfortunately, the side effect is that some plastics are broken into smaller pieces and mixed into the resulting “soup”. While these plants do [...]

[...]Waging am See, Germany HUBER Sludge Thickener excels for its operating reliability and energy efficiency with thickening primary and surplus sludge in automatic mode! In summer 2015, Gemeindewerke Waging (municipal utilities) in the Bavarian Chiemgau district were desperately looking for an energy-efficient, high-performance sludge thickening plant. They wanted a new energy-efficient and well-proven technical solution to replace their old centrifuge which consumed too much energy. Before they decided to buy a new system they tested a HUBER Disc Thickener S-DISC installed in a tank on their sewage[...]

[...]Stubai Alps, Austria HUBER Global Service recently successfully completed a very special service assignment in Austria. In cooperation with the German Alpine Association (DAV), the wastewater treatment facilities at the Bremer Hütte mountain hut were serviced and optimised. Unique professional experience and challenge The Bremer Hütte, situated at an altitude of 2,413 metres in the Stubai Alps, is a picturesque but also challenging location for HUBER Service. As a base for the German Alpine Club, the hut offers hikers and mountaineers a welcome rest stop. For our HUBER service technicians, the [...]

[...]Machines and plants for wastewater treatment are usually installed as permanent installations in structures and buildings due to process engineering necessities. This usually requires extensive preliminary investigations, studies, concepts, planning, authorisations, tenders and construction phases involving and coordinating a wide range of different trades. This is usually a lengthy, costly and capital-intensive process. Systems that are not permanently installed but temporarily rented are the alternative. Their short-term availability is also particularly advantageous, which is why rental [...]

[...]Ontario, Canada Official groundbreaking ceremony: Markham District Energy (MDE) has announced the start of the world's largest wastewater-to-energy transfer project at its Low Carbon Energy Centre in downtown Markham.
