[...]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. MDE will use the HUBER ThermWin system to recover and utilise energy from wastewater. This will significantly reduce the carbon footprint and provide energy for the residents and infrastructure of Markham. 18 MW of low carbon thermal energy The HUBER ThermWin system in this project consists of five HUBER Pumping Stations Screen ROTAMAT® RoK4 700XL and 16 HUBER Heat Exchanger [...]
[...]Reliable pre-treatment for septic sludge Wherever wastewater is not fed to a sewage treatment plant via the sewer system, but is treated decentrally, septic sludge is produced. This septic sludge collects either in simple septic tanks or in more modern small wastewater treatment plants and must be removed at regular intervals to be treated in a central plant. Where possible, this is done at a centralized wastewater treatment plant with sufficient surplus capacity; but where such a plant is not available nearby, a separate on-site plant for the complete treatment of septic sludge can also be built. [...]
[...]Manfouha, Saudi Arabia HUBER SE has won the first of three major projects in the field of solar sewage sludge drying in the Saudi Arabian capital Riyadh. The long-standing customer Alkhorayef Water&Power Technologies has placed an order with HUBER SE for the supply of 50 lines of HUBER Sludge Turner SOLSTICE®. This also includes the automatic sludge feeding with HUBER Screw Conveyors of a total length of approx. 900 metres. The contractor Alkhorayef Water&Power will operate the Manfouha wastewater treatment plant for a period of 15 years and expand it with various process steps such as solar[...]
[...]Efficient and reliable removal of coarse material from sludge For the operational safety of sludge treatment processes, it is advantageous if the sludge is as free as possible of coarse material and disturbing solids (e.g. paper, plastics, fibres and hair). Otherwise, repeated malfunctions of aggregates and processes may occur in pumps, but also during thickening, dewatering or drying, and these can be time-consuming and costly to rectify and require increased manpower. For the agricultural recycling practised in many regions of the world, it also makes sense to separate all solids such as [...]
[...]Roeselare + Beringen, Belgium HUBER SE will supply a total of five HUBER Belt Dryer BT units to the Belgian company Aquafin for the two sites in Roeselare and Beringen. The plants for drying and thermal utilisation of sewage sludge will treat a minimum capacity of 32,500 tonnes of dry substance or 120,446 tonnes of original substance with a dry residue (DR) content of 27% per year. In addition to the HUBER belt dryers, the scope of supply includes the entire wet sludge logistics, cooling water supply, exhaust air treatment for the dryer and bunker exhaust air as well as the treatment and storage [...]
