[...]Bremen, Germany A new future quarter for business, living, work, culture and leisure is currently being built in Bremen – with a sustainable energy supply from wastewater: Europe's once largest tobacco factory is being revitalised into the “Tobacco Quarter” building complex. The quarter has reinvented itself, turning an outdated industrial site into a prime example of urban development with its finger on the pulse of the times. It is one of the largest urban development areas in northern Germany. A new future quarter for business, living, work, culture and leisure is currently being built in Bremen[...]

[...]Beilngries, Germany The Beilngries wastewater treatment plant is located in the Altmühl Valley, a region very popular with tourists. The plant treats the wastewater of approx. 10,000 inhabitants. The digested sludge is dewatered three times a year over a period of two weeks using a decanter from a contractor. The practice of contract dewatering was then scrutinised for the following reasons: The long stacking of the digested sludge, also due to its cooling, combined with the high throughput rate on the decanter, led to poor dewatering results of only 20% dry matter content in the press cake. [...]

[...]Berching, Germany How it all began... In the 1950s and 1960s, manhole covers in "painted steel" and "galvanised steel" were proven products of the HUBER company and the covers were mainly manufactured for water pipeline construction. At the beginning of the 1970s, the brothers Hans and Karl-Josef Huber, the company owners at the time, recognised the desire and need of many customers for a low-maintenance manhole cover that did not require maintenance work such as regular painting of the surface. The idea of using stainless steel for this purpose was born and was implemented on a trial basis. At that [...]

[...]Utzenaich, Austria HUBER air filter plants are able to achieve separation efficiencies in excess of 99.95% In some water chambers condensation drops occur on the ceiling and walls. This should generally be prevented through sufficient insulation of the ceiling, sloping ceilings or through special coatings. Frequently, however, the problem cannot be solved with static methods. In 2011 already, we published a report about our experience with retrofitting forced ventilation systems in the elevated reservoir Utzenaich in Austria. When the reservoir with two rectangular chambers with 250 m³ capacity[...]

[...]Timpanogos, USA After the success story of thermal sewage sludge drying in the USA began with the Mooresville, North Carolina project in 2011 with a total investment volume of approx. 3.8 million US dollars, HUBER Technology Inc., the US subsidiary of HUBER, has now successfully won its largest dryer project to date with two HUBER Belt Dryers BT 30 and an investment volume of approx. 16.35 million USD. The delivery of the two ordered HUBER Belt Dryers of the largest size BT 30 is scheduled for June 2024. Commissioning of the dryers is planned for spring 2025 according to the customer. 4,000 [...]

[...]Cork, UK When DuPont needed to improve their on-site ETP performance, replacing the existing final settlement tanks with HUBER DAF units provided a compact solution. Background The site in Cork makes Micro Crystalline Cellulose Powder, a filler/binder for pharmaceutical and veterinary tablets. The raw material for this is Wood Paper Pulp. In the manufacturing process, large belt filters are used to recover the product as a wet cake but the filtrate and cake washings require treatment before discharge to sewer. The nature of the wastewater is similar to that found in a paper mill, rather than a [...]

[...]Dublin, Ireland A new Anaerobic Digestion plant outside Dublin, Ireland has been provided with high efficiency HUBER grit removal and grit washing, to ensure trouble free operation and reduced downtime. Background Material accepted at site includes kerbside food waste collection as well as other organic material. This material is de-packaged and screened, but the resulting pulp still contains large amounts of grit (stones, glass, eggshells and bones). If not removed, this grit blocks and abrades both pumps and tanks. In particular the digester itself can accumulate grit, reducing the effective [...]
