[...]Munich, Germany A total of 1,816.6 million hectolitres beer were produced worldwide in 2008. Assuming an average fresh water consumption of 400 litres for one hectolitre beer, this means a fresh water consumption of 726.6 million m³. About one third of the fresh water, however, could be replaced with service water as it is not necessary to use highest drinking water quality in all production areas. A part of the saving potential of 240 million m³ water can only be exploited with the use of new technical solutions. Under a research project of the Bavarian Research Foundation and in cooperation [...]

[...]Ingelheim, Germany HUBER Active Carbon Filter CONTIFLOW® GAK: The quaternary treatment stage Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma GmbH & Co.KG was founded by Albert Boehringer in Ingelheim on the Rhine in 1885. The company operates a central wastewater treatment plant on their research and development location in Biberach an der Riß (Baden-Württemberg). The treated wastewater is discharged directly to the receiving water course. As part of a research project investigating the reduction of trace substances and micropollutants, a partial flow of the wastewater generated daily is treated there. This partial[...]

[...]Berching, Germany Simple and low-cost method of phosphorus removal from wastewater The nutrients we discharge into water courses (phosphorus, nitrogen) severely impairs water quality in the long run. Even phosphate contents in the lower microgram range can already have a negative effect on the oxygen content in waters and thus increase their eutrophication potential. Eutrophication is referred to as the enrichment of a water body by plant nutrients (overfertilation). These nutrients lead to increased algae growth, and algae make the water turbid. After some time, only the surface-near layer [...]

[...]Summary The HUBER Disc Dryer RotaDry® is a robust and compact dryer design with a high water evaporation capacity in relation to volume and footprint. It is ideally suited for the partial drying of sewage sludge and for the interaction with a fluidised bed mono-incineration plant. Fully automated, it contributes to a relief of the operating personnel and an optimisation of the combustion of sewage sludge. Effective disc drying supports sewage sludge mono-incineration. A high percentage of phosphorus can be recovered relatively easily from the ashes produced by acid hydroloysis. This is of great[...]

[...]Extensive know-how, decades of experience and intensive studies and discussions: building on this foundation in sewage sludge treatment and recycling, HUBER launched the new HUBER Disc Dryer RotaDry® in 2020. The dryer is based on the functional principle of contact drying via steam-heated discs and, compared to other drying processes, impresses with its compact design as well as several innovative features, functionalities and decisive advantages for reliable state-of-the-art drying of sewage sludge. Fully automatic control Online measurement of the dry residue at the inlet and (optionally) [...]

[...]HUBER extends its product portfolio by a contact dryer for sewage sludge HUBER SE has expanded its range of sewage sludge dryers by adding a disc dryer to its future product portfolio. This dryer is based on the principle of contact drying and convinces by its compact design compared to other drying systems. Especially in combination with fluidized bed incineration systems, the HUBER Disc Dryer RotaDry® is the ideal addition to the overall process of a sewage sludge incineration plant. The strength of the disc dryer lies in the efficient, homogeneous and compact partial drying of sewage sludge[...]

[...]Berlin, Germany Reliable and innovative products from Berching for the German capital: HUBER will deliver four RotaDry® disc dryers to Berlin for the Waßmannsdorf sewage sludge utilisation plant, which is located on the site of the sewage treatment plant of the same name. In future, the HUBER Disc Dryer RotaDry® units will be used for partial drying of up to 40,800 kg/h sewage sludge. 100% thermal utilisation of sewage sludge in future Berliner Wasserbetriebe (BWB) operates six of its own sewage treatment plants in Berlin and the surrounding region. Instead of agricultural utilisation or [...]

[...]Hamburg, Germany On the way to Germany's largest sewage sludge incineration plant: HUBER supplies three HUBER Disc Dryer RotaDry® units for the extension of VERA Hamburg by HAMBURG WASSER. The extension will increase the capacity of the VERA incineration plant by approx. 50 percent. As a result of the extension, the annual throughput of sewage sludge at the plant will increase to about 76,000 tonnes dry matter, with further potential for expansion to 97,000 tonnes per year. Energy self-sufficient showcase sewage treatment plant Digester sludge has been treated thermally in an environmentally [...]

[...]The HUBER Disc Dryer RotaDry® is designed for homogeneous partial drying of dewatered sewage sludge. Due to its compact design and high specific water evaporation, it is ideally suited not only for use in new sewage sludge mono-incineration plants, but also for capacity expansions of existing plants. The dryer can dry exactly to the required DR content, thus enabling self-sustaining combustion in the fluidised bed incinerator. The HUBER Disc Dryer RotaDry® is available in different sizes, so that a water evaporation of two to six tons per hour and dryer can be achieved. The perfect sewage sludge[...]

[...]STP Vorra , Germany STP Vorra chooses a HUBER RoDisc® Screen The trickling filter plant with separate secondary clarification tank on STP Vorra was built in 1982 and had to be redesigned in 2006 to meet ATV-DVWK A281 standards. It was necessary to build a new bigger secondary clarification tank with a volume of 350 m³. Taking into account the conditions on site (soil properties, high groundwater level) the costs for building this new clarifier (including sheet pile, unwatering, distribution structure, inlet/outlet line, secondary clarification tank) were estimated to amount to approximately € 525,000[...]
