[...]Dublin, Ireland HUBER Technology UK was chosen as supplier of seven bar screens and seven screenings wash-presses for the Dublin Bay Inlet Works at Ringsend. The order also included supply of all control panels for all our machines. The plant’s management selected our multi-rake bar screens RakeMax® because of their low head loss during peak flow, in spite of their small bar spacing. Another selection criterion was their great screenings removal capacity. It also helped that our super-launder screenings presses WAP® SL provide superior washing intensity and compaction capability, resulting in a [...]

[...]Plymouth, England Background Site operators at Plymouth Central STW wanted a more reliable and less labour intensive option to de-watering than a centrifuge. South West Waters requirements were lowest WLC, low operator attendance and simple operation South West Water had been looking at alternative dewatering technologies with lower TOTEX to potentially replace existing veteran centrifuge assets and tasked preferred contractor Kier to offer solutions for the Plymouth Central and Maer Lane WwTWs. Plymouth Central serves a Population Equivalent of around 320,000 and, being on a coastal port [...]

[...]During dry weather, organic and inorganic sediments increasingly settle on the sewer base in combined sewer systems due to slow flow velocities. Under stormwater conditions, these sediments float up and arrive along with the sewer flow at the sewage treatment plant or stormwater overflow structure. If the combined sewer volume exceeds the capacity of the overflow structure or sewage treatment plant, the combined water is frequently discharged to a receiving water course, impairing water quality with the result of increased costs for maintenance and cleaning. As a preventive measure, coarse material[...]

[...]Berching, Germany HUBER Chemicals Dosing DIGIT-DOSE setting new standards for the efficient operation of flotation plants Industrial wastewater treatment cannot be imagined anymore without flotation technology. Flotation ensures that suspended matter, grease and particulate pollutants are effectively removed from production wastewater. If also dissolved pollutants need to be converted to particulate matter, precipitants and flocculants are added. Such additives can enormously increase cleaning efficiency, they are however also the major cost factor in the operating costs for a wastewater treatment[...]

[...]Constance, Germany Lake Constance, with a water surface of about 536 km² the largest lake in Germany and the largest freshwater reservoir in Central Europe, has been used for the drinking water supply of the city of Constance for more than 110 years. Due to the already excellent quality of Lake Constance water, the waterworks can provide up to 50 million litres of drinking water for the Constance region every day with comparatively few treatment steps. Excellent drinking water quality through microfiltration, ozonation and sand filters The raw water is pumped out of Lake Constance from a depth[...]

[...]In many respects, water is an indispensable basis of life for humans and nature, because without water there is no life and no economic progress. However, increasing population density as well as developments in the industrial, commercial and agricultural sectors pose ever greater challenges for a secure water supply. Increasingly, seawater and river water are being extracted to meet the growing demand. Water extraction from surface waters: removal of pollutants by mechanical purification gaining in importance Due to the increasing extraction of water from surface waters and the simultaneously[...]

[...]Rome, Italy Seven HUBER Sludgecleaner STRAINPRESS® units for improved wastewater treatment for 3.5 million inhabitants: HUBER to renew sludge screening at all three major WWTPs in Rome Rome, which is worldwide known as “The Eternal City”, is the biggest and also capital city of Italy counting more than 4.200.000 inhabitants. As in other metropolitan cities, the issue of efficient management of infrastructure and investment in technological innovation to achieve ever-higher quality is crucial. The entire water cycle from spring water to waste water treatment for the Lazio region is managed by[...]

[...]Birmingham, England A HUBER Technology Industrial Wastewater Case Study HUBER Technology recently completed a project for the largest confectionery manufacturer in the UK at their site at Marlbrook between Leominster and Hereford. The project for Mondelez which own confectionery brand Cadbury was delivered following good early engagement to allow a successful project to be delivered. Project Profile This project was part of the upgrade to the sites effluent treatment plant to include for a provision of sludge dewatering capability on site. It involved removal of an existing redundant DAF [...]
