HOBAS Engineering GmbH
Environmental aspects and future-oriented thinking lead the municipality of Groningen in the Netherlands to extending their existing sewer main sized DN 1000 and DN 1200. The gravity sewer main could not cope with high flow rates occurring during e.g. heavy rainfall. To prevent sewage from overflowing and polluting nature the authorities decided to convert it into a closed pressure system. With this and its extension by 2.4 km HOBAS CC-GRP Sewer Systems a capacity of 3000 m3/h will be achieved so that the line would easily cope with future needs as well as the connection of a further village.

S & P Consult GmbH
The guideline that will be forthcoming in the German language is an essential assistance for network operators to appraise sewer networks both in detail and consistently. Only by a well-grounded assessment and evaluation of these installations can a proper and regular balancing be ensured. Furthermore, a strong balancing is the prerequisite for a sustained management of the drain and sewer systems in the sense of the existing inter-generation contract that results from the long-life cycle of those systems. Here, sewer operators have the possibility to carry out the necessary collections and evaluations of data either on their part or contract out the services - also in parts - to external service providers.

Humans, who can last a month without food, die after a week without water. And while we rely on water to sustain life, many are not aware of the vast network of reservoirs, plants and pipes required to treat, distribute, collect and clean water. Much of the nation's water infrastructure, built nearly a century ago for a smaller population, is aging and overburdened.
