The problem with the hated sewage blockers practically solved with the help of experience

The town of Wildeshausen, located in the nature reserve of the same name, is surrounded by fields and woods and has recently experienced a strong influx of new inhabitants drawn to its natural setting. To these people, this popular holiday destination is home.
Up until a few years ago, however, problems in the sewer system pumping stations of this county town for the district of Oldenburg in Lower Saxony would often interrupt the tranquility. But when the municipality hired a former wastewater specialist from the potato processing industry, the solution was soon found. He invested in rotary lobe pumps from Vogelsang, which are resistant to foreign matter. Blockages caused by wet wipes are now a rarity.

The digital revolution of waste water systems and its advantages

It’s known in Germany as “Industrie 4.0,” in France as “Industrie du future” and in the USA as the “Internet of Things (IoT).” Almost everyone has heard at least one of these buzzwords by now, and has a more or less accurate idea of what the fourth industrial revolution entails: Following on from mechanization, mass production and automation, we are now seeing an extensive computerization of production sequences and processes. The basis for this development is formed by structured, automated communication between people, machines, systems and logistics. The result will be a largely self-organized and flexible system that covers the entire value chain.

Who would have thought that dentures, identity cards or beer bottles could be found in wastewater treatment plants?
