[...]Star, Idaho, USA The Star Water and Sewer District knew change was going to come. The plant’s existing in-channel grinder technology wasn’t just aging, it was obsolete. The unit was also in need of repairs that could force two weeks of downtime. Regardless of what they did to “fix” the existing unit, its performance would lag behind newer screening technology. Consultants and engineers pointed the district to HUBER and its ROTAMAT® STAR fine screen as a replacement that would take the plant into the future. The single-most important result that Star Sewer and Water District Waste Water [...]

[...]Berching, Germany Environmental disasters, such as the oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, the global economic crisis and ever decreasing resources remind us that we urgently need a safe, eco-friendly and financially attractive energy source. Right below the ground, in sewers, is an unnoticed hidden source of energy that fulfils all these criteria: municipal wastewater. The HUBER Heat Exchanger RoWin has been developed especially for this application. Heat pumps use environmental energy sources, normally groundwater or air. But both elements have the disadvantage that their energy level [...]
[...]Heating and Cooling Buildings with Wastewater Efficient and sustainable solutions by combining wastewater heat exchanger and heat pump Using wastewater as a heat source and heat sink for heating and cooling buildings reduces primary energy use and saves CO2 emissions. Using wastewater as a heat source and heat sink for heating and cooling buildings reduces primary energy use and saves CO2 emissions. Heating and Cooling with Wastewater from the Sewer System The HUBER ThermWin process allows heating and cooling of buildings using the wastewater in the sewage system as a regenerative energy source[...]
[...]Heating and Cooling with Water and Wastewater HUBER ThermWin makes heat and cold potential from wastewater and surface water available to cities, municipalities, energy suppliers, building operators and industrial companies. Rising energy costs, ambitious climate targets and the requirements of municipal heating planning increase the need for locally accessible energy sources.
