Waste or Resource the Industrial Waste or Resource the Industrial perception is changingperception is changing

•Many materials previously thought of as waste are now considered as a resource.•Consent standards are tightening up, disposal costs to sewer are increasing.•Landfill is becoming scarcer and landfill taxes are rising.•Green issues, social ethics and carbon footprint are becoming important.•Legislation on disposal is getting tighter and fines for breaches of EA requirements higher.•Some Resources are becoming scarcer hence costs are rising


Screens for solid removal

Reducing ongoing costs

•Cleaning when required reducing power

•Efficient slow rotation reducing power requirements and maintenance.

•Washing when required reducing water use

•Screenings washing to reduce odour note totally enclosed solids removal.

•Compaction by the auger reducing screenings volume

•Stainless construction prolonging life and reducing maintenance


Huber Containerised Inlet Sewage Works

• System for complete preliminary mechanical wastewater treatment

• Screening, removal, washing, dewatering, with grit and grease removal in one unit

• Covered design to limit odours

• Low Carbon footprint

• Compact design


Biological waste treatment process water treatment

After screening and de-gritting the liquid can be further treated with a DAF flotation plant incl. chemical step and so a large amount of the contained solids materials can be removed. BOD and COD reduction reduces the discharge cost, improves the environment, and allows reuse.

SLUDGE TREATMENT

Sludges come from settlement

Huber with chemistry and mechanics thicken the slurry and remove some water

By Thermally drying the sludge is reduced to a pellet and water evaporated away
