    10/20/2008|Siemens and ACE Korea Reach Exclusive Distributor Agreement for Electro-Osmosis Dehydrator in North America and China
    Siemens Water Technologies and ACE Korea, Inc. (Busan, Korea) have recently reached an exclusive distributorship agreement to promote ELODE (Electro-Osmosis Dehydrator) in North America and China. This unique electro-dewatering device extracts both free and absorbed water from organic and inorganic residual materials. With efficiencies yielding greater than 40 percent dry solids, typical municipal and industrial waste sludge volumes can be reduced by half, or more. The ELODE technology uses less energy consumption than some other drying technologies.

    10/20/2008|Siemens Introduces Sludge Belt Dryer for Improved Biosolids Management
    Siemens Water Technologies is adding the new Sludge Belt Dryer to its array of sludge dewatering options. This convective dryer is supplied in a one- or two-belt design that provides uniform evaporation and has an adjustable speed belt to vary residence times. System advantages include efficient operation in minimal space, low emissions, low dust, a granular final product and a low thermal requirement with possible heat recovery from low temperature waste energy sources. By making better use of wastewater solids and waste heat, communities can lower their energy costs, helping to save space in landfills and encouraging the recycling of nutrient-rich wastewater solids.

    10/20/2008|Siemens and Chevron Energy Solutions Help California City Turn Waste to Energy - Dystor Gas Holder Systems Store Methane from Wastewater Sludge
    The city of Rialto (Calif.) is working with Siemens Water Technologies to install two Dystor gas holder systems at the city’s wastewater treatment plant. The Dystor systems, which are part of a comprehensive upgrade being designed and installed by Chevron Energy Solutions, will be used to store methane gas produced from treating municipal wastewater sludge and local restaurant kitchen grease. Rialto uses three 300-kW fuel cells to convert the biogas into hydrogen and to generate power electrochemically, without combustion, for the plant.

    10/20/2008|Siemens’ Pulsed Air MBR System Decreases Operation Costs and Energy Usage
    Siemens Water Technologies’ new MemPulse membrane bioreactor (MBR) uses a mechanical device that supplies irregular pulses of air to the MBR module. This decreases operation and maintenance costs, reduces energy consumption, and increases scouring effectiveness. The process can be used with a wide range of municipal and industrial wastewater treatment applications, including water reuse, new housing developments, parks and resorts, and turnkey projects. It can also easily be retrofitted to existing plants wishing to replace conventional clarification processes with membrane separation.

    10/08/2008|Siemens to Provide Automation for Poland’s Largest WWTP Upgrade and Expansion Project
    Siemens Water Technologies will provide the Czajka Wastewater Treatment Plant in Warsaw, Poland with visualization, control and monitoring systems, as well as electrical installations as part of the largest WWTP upgrade and expansion project in Poland. Valued at more than 24 million EUR, the design-build project will help the Czajka plant meet Polish and European Union directives. These rules will require WWTPs to treat 100% of effluent discharged into the Vistula River by the end of 2010.

    09/29/2008|Siemens’ Disc Filter Receives Title 22 Approval
    Siemens Water Technologies’ Forty-X disc filter is now compliant with the State of California Water Recycling Criteria (Title 22). As a result, the disc filter is an accepted filtration technology for projects that require Title 22 certification. More and more territories and countries are beginning to adopt Title 22 as an industry standard.

    09/26/2008|Siemens to Provide Ireland’s Largest Water Treatment Plant with Onsite Hypochlorite Generation
    Siemens Water Technologies will provide two onsite hypochlorite electrolytic chlorination systems to Dublin City Council for the Ballymore Eustace Water Treatment Plant in County Kildare, Ireland. The OSEC systems from Siemens, which will replace Ballymore’s chlorine gas systems, are part of a series of enhancements that are being made to the 72-year-old plant over the next five years. Once operational in 2009, this will be the largest electrochlorination plant in the UK and Ireland.

    09/22/2008|Siemens to Provide Wastewater Treatment Solution to help Chinese City Restore Water Quality in Taihu Lake
    The Chinese city of Wuxi, in Jiangsu province, has selected Siemens to provide a solution to treat municipal waste water and help restore the water quality of Taihu Lake. An important water source for 30 million people, the lake has been heavily polluted by municipal sewage and industrial wastewater. The solution from Siemens will include a Membrane Biological Reactor (MBR) system for the upgrading of Wuxi Xincheng Wastewater Treatment Plant, one of the city’s three main wastewater treatment plants. The MBR system will treat 30,000 cubic meters of wastewater per day, and will play an important role in helping the city to treat more than 90 percent of its wastewater by 2010. The system is scheduled for commissioning at the end of 2008.

    09/10/2008|Siemens to Provide Process Control and Automation System for the Lodz Wastewater Treatment Plant in Poland
    Siemens has been awarded a contract to provide a process control and automation system, and electrical works for the sludge incineration plant at the Lodz wastewater treatment facility in Lodz, Poland. The 3.5M PLN (over 1M Eur) project is part of an ongoing plant modernization, which was required to treat an increased amount of wastewater and thus meet the requirements of the European Union Directive No. 91/271/EEC. The capacity of the plant has increased to 200,000 m3/day (rainless weather), or 52 percent of the total wastewater in the region, which requires the proper sludge management process implementation.

    08/15/2008|Siemens to Provide IPS Composting System Agitators for Burlington County, New Jersey Composting Plant
    Siemens Water Technologies has been awarded a contract to provide five IPS Composting System agitators to the Burlington County, New Jersey Board of Chosen Freeholders, as part of an upgrade to the county’s 10-year-old composting plant. The plant supports the county’s biosolids composting and beneficial use program for 14 municipal wastewater treatment plants. The new IPS equipment will replace the plant’s existing 10-year-old Siemens’ composting agitators. Two agitators will be delivered this year, with the other three installed in early 2009. This schedule will allow the capital cost to be spread out for two fiscal years, and the entire order delivered within the shortest time frame so as not to impede plant operations.
