Germany – Installation of metal structures – Kläranlage Aurich-Haxtum, Bau Faulung II - Stahlbau

The subject of the tender is the construction of a new digester at the Aurich-Haxtum wastewater treatment plant. The Aurich-Haxtum wastewater treatment plant treats the wastewater of the city of Aurich and the surrounding municipalities. In addition to the predominantly municipal wastewater, dairy wastewater from the local dairy Rücker is also treated at the Aurich wastewater treatment plant. The current inflow load is approximately 68,500 EWCSB. A sludge digestion plant has been operated at the wastewater treatment plant since 1963 to stabilize and reduce the primary sludge produced during wastewater treatment. Despite ongoing optimizations and renovations, the sludge digestion has reached its performance limit due to increased inflow loads. The existing digester capacity is only sufficient for the primary sludge and the flotation sludge produced during the pretreatment of the dairy wastewater. The digestion process is occasionally overloaded, leading to difficult operating conditions. During maintenance and repair work on the digester (age approx. 60 years), there are currently no reserve capacities available. It is currently not possible to utilize the excess sludge (ÜS) energetically, as the digester with a digestion time of far less than 20 days is already overloaded. Therefore, all ÜS sludge is stabilized in a composting plant. Operating the sludge composting requires a lot of space, results in high sludge disposal costs, and is generally uneconomical. In the long term, the operation of the composting plant is to be discontinued, and the ÜS sludge is to be fed to a sludge digestion for energetic utilization and sludge reduction. For this reason, the construction of a sludge digester for the ÜS sludge is necessary. This includes the following measures:

- Construction of a new digester for ÜS sludge incl. operating building

- Erection of a new gas storage and emergency flare

- Installation of a new CHP plant and digester gas purification

- (Installation of a sludge disintegration; planned later)

- (Installation of a reception station for fats and co-substrates; planned later)

- Integration of the new construction measure into the existing plant and control technology

The Aurich wastewater treatment plant is located in Haxtum. Address: Kläranlage Aurich Haxtum Zum Antjebitt 1 26605 Aurich
