Highly Efficient Sludge Screening
The HUBER Sludgecleaner STRAINPRESS® is a pressure-fed inline system that removes coarse materials such as plastics, hair, and fibres without backwashing, ensuring continuous operation and protecting downstream equipment. It seamlessly integrates into pipelines, using a screw mechanism to screen, dewater, and compact solids, discharging with up to 45% dry solids content.
Sludge Thickening Solutions for Large and Small STPs
Sludge thickening reduces sludge volume by removing excess water, optimising storage, stabilisation, and dewatering efficiency. Hydroflux Epco provides low-energy, reliable solutions with minimal operator intervention, including the HUBER Disc Thickener S-DISC and HUBER Rotary Drum Thickener S-DRUM, ensuring cost-effective and sustainable sludge management for wastewater treatment plants.
The Worlds Best Sludge Dewatering Solution
The HUBER Screw Press Q-PRESS® is a low-energy, high-efficiency sludge dewatering unit designed for municipalities. Operating at less than 1 rpm, it minimises wear and energy use while delivering clean, compact, and reliable dewatering for a wide range of applications, including dewatering of primary, waste-activated, and digested sludge. With throughput capacities from 20 to 540 kg of dry solids per hour, the Q-PRESS® ensures cost-effective and sustainable sludge management.
Maximising Efficiency and Savings with Sludge Drying
Sludge drying is a highly effective solution for wastewater treatment plants, reducing sludge volumes by 70-80% and significantly lowering transport and disposal costs. The resulting Class A biosolids are stabilised, nutrient-rich and can be beneficially reused in agriculture, landscaping, and other applications. Hydroflux Epco provides advanced sludge drying solutions, including solar drying and thermal drying via the HUBER BT Belt Dryer.
