Huber Technology, Inc. to Provide New Sludge Treatment Equipment to The City of Riverside, California

Oct. 12, 2015 -- Huber Technology, Inc. was recently selected by the City of Riverside, Calif., to provide sludge dewatering and membrane bioreactor (MBR) protection equipment for a series of upgrades to its facility. HUBER was first selected to provide the RPPS Fine Screen for MBR protection as a part of its $200-million MBR upgrade project. In a separate purchase, the company was also selected to provide sludge dewatering equipment as part of a separate project to upgrade its sludge treatment system. Prior to this purchase, the facility used a belt filter press and centrifuge for sludge dewatering, and the decision was made to upgrade the equipment to increase efficiency and lower maintenance requirements. The purchase consisted of six Ros 3 Q 800 models -- one of the company's premier sludge dewatering products designed to reduce sludge volume while maintaining a high level of energy efficiency. The RPPS unit was started in June 2015, and the sludge dewatering components will be installed in spring 2016. ###
