[...]Grand Rapids, MI USA An alternative for ageing scraper bridges. They work constantly, know no weekends and are exposed to wind and rain. They are familiar with wear and corrosion and are grateful for a few drops of lubricating oil. We are talking about the scraper bridges of grit channels. When the ravages of time take their toll At some point, after what feels like two sewage works operator’s lifetimes, the time comes when this ‘vehicle’ is no longer fit for purpose. The concrete of the grit channel could certainly withstand the same amount of time again, but the machinery has had its day.[...]

[...]Heiligenblut, Austria The Heiligenblut wastewater treatment plant, which has a capacity of 8,250 PE, was built at the foot of the Großglockner, Austria's highest mountain, in 1986. It treats the wastewater of the entire municipality of Heiligenblut (at an altitude of 1,288 m), including Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höhe, which is the highest point of the Grossglockner High Alpine Road (at an altitude of 2,369 m). The sewage treatment plant is located next to the Mölltal federal road in the village of Rojach, at an altitude of 1,098 metres. The challenge: limited installation space and high requirements The [...]

[...]Plants for sludge treatment (e.g. HUBER Screw Press Q-PRESS ® , HUBER Disc Thickener S-Disc) or for pre- and secondary treatment of industrial and municipal wastewater (e.g. HUBER Flotation Plant HDF) are usually purchased in Germany. This involves prior planning, authorisation, construction of infrastructure and buildings, as well as permanent responsibility for the acquired plant technology. In addition, the process from idea to implementation often takes several years. Industrial plant operators, in particular, increasingly wish and demand to rent rather than permanently purchase machinery [...]

[...]Germany Membrane systems, especially membrane bioreactors (MBR), are wastewater treatment technologies that combine biological processes with membrane filtration. These systems are used in some sewage treatment plants instead of the conventional activated sludge process. A typical MBR system consists of a biological reactor in which microorganisms break down organic matter and a membrane filtration unit that separates the purified water from the solids. Solids separation prior to membrane filtration To ensure optimum performance, membranes must be protected from large solids. For this purpose, [...]

[...]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 [...]

[...]Vohburg and Kahla, Germany The topic of replacing a conventional primary clarifier with a mechanical screen has already been the subject of numerous publications. HUBER SE was the first company in Germany to take up this new challenge several years ago. The performance of the plants already installed, their reliable operation and the resulting energy savings in the operation of the wastewater treatment plants are already a success story, as the Vohburg and Kahla projects impressively demonstrate. Vohburg wastewater treatment plant: complete modernisation for energy performance optimisation[...]

[...]Osečina, Serbia The company Podgorina Frucht supplies to customers in the food industry high-quality fruit juice concentrates, purées, flavours, dried fruit and frozen goods. All their products are made from selected Serbian raw material. The wastewater generated during production is treated in the company's own in-house sewage treatment plant to such an extent that the clean effluent can without problems be discharged directly into the small Jadar river. The well trained company personnel operates a SBR plant for biological wastewater treatment. As a special feature of this project a HUBER [...]

[...]In a city that never sleeps, resilience is non-negotiable. With the growing threat of storms and rising tides, some of New York City’s most iconic and vital institutions have turned to a single solution: HUBER’s TT7 pressure-rated stainless-steel doors. Designed as a pressure-tight access door, the TT7 is the optimal solution for flood protection, safeguarding lives, infrastructure, and history from nature’s fury. A Fortress for History on Governors Island In 2018, one of Governors Island’s historic buildings became an early adopter of the TT7. This 172-acre island, just 800 yards (about 731.52 [...]

[...]The combined sewer tunnel in Lisbon is a state-of-the-art infrastructure project that protects the city from flooding caused by heavy rainfall and drains urban wastewater during dry weather periods. In the past, extreme rainfall of up to 60 mm per hour repeatedly caused considerable damage in lower-lying districts of the city. The Túnel Monsanto-Santa Apolónia, the so-called ‘mega tunnel’, is the city administration's largest construction project to date and a central component of the urban climate adaptation strategy. With a length of exactly 4,975 metres and an internal diameter of 5.5 metres[...]

[...]The success story of the HUBER ROTAMAT® machine family began 45 years ago. The patent for the HUBER Fine Screen ROTAMAT® Ro1 was filed at that time, and the ROTAMAT® family has continued to prove itself ever since through continuous innovation and adaptation. The patent described a combination of screening, dewatering, compaction and transport. Over the years, further variants of the Ro1 system, which is equipped with a screen basket and a rake, have been developed. These include the Ro2 with a rotating wedge wire basket, the RPPS, which has a perforated plate screen basket, and the latest variant[...]
