A.T.E. HUBER Envirotech designs, manufactures, installs, and services proprietary wastewater treatment systems for industrial and municipal customers, combining anaerobic, aerobic and anoxic biological processes with advanced filtration and reverse osmosis membranes. The portfolio includes named technologies (AAA®, AVR®, AHR, RDRO, SUFRO®, FBRO) targeting verticals such as textiles, sugar and distillery, dairy and food, petrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, pulp and paper, meat, seafood and municipal sewage, with integrated Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) and water recycling capability. The company is a joint venture between A.T.E. (India) and HUBER SE (Germany), and supplements equipment sales with value-added biological products, project services (adequacy audits, treatability studies, pilot studies), and after-sales services (AMC, commissioning, training, overhauling).

Product overview

A.T.E. HUBER Envirotech offers a comprehensive portfolio of wastewater treatment solutions as a joint venture between A.T.E. (India) and HUBER SE (Germany). The portfolio centers on proprietary anaerobic treatment technologies including AAA® for textiles, AVR® for sugar/distillery, AHR for petrochemical/pharmaceutical, and AVR-HDF® for dairy/food industries. These core technologies are complemented by RDRO (ultrafiltration/RO), SUFRO®, and FBRO solutions for specialized applications. The company also provides EnviroCOLA® as a digital monitoring tool, value-added biological products (Enzymes BBE-1/BBE-2, Micronutrients BBM-1/BBM-2, Bio cultures BBC), and municipal wastewater solutions covering headworks through sludge management. Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) capabilities are achieved through integrated UF/RO and evaporator systems.

Sold to industrial and municipal customers pursuing water reuse.
• SUFRO® Wastewater recycling technology solution offered within the company's industrial wastewater portfolio, used to recycle treated water for industrial reuse.
• FBRO Filtration and reverse osmosis technology for industrial wastewater treatment, used to polish treated effluent and enable reuse.
• AHR-AF Combination of air floatation for oil and fat removal with an anoxic stage for denitrification, integrating suspended and attached growth processes with media for high organic loading rates, reduced power consumption and reduced sludge generation, plus UF/RO recycle systems for maximum water recovery. Sold to meat processing and livestock industry customers.
• Anaerobic-Anoxic Technology for Seafood Processing Anaerobic-anoxic/aerobic treatment combination for seafood processing wastewaters with high organic loads, providing effective odour control. Sold to seafood processors.
• Anaerobic Technology for Paper and Pulp Combination of anaerobic-aerobic technologies with Huber thickeners for fiber recovery and effective colour reduction in paper and pulp industry effluent. Sold to paper and pulp manufacturers.
• Municipal Wastewater Solutions Comprehensive municipal wastewater treatment solutions covering headworks, primary, secondary and tertiary treatment, and sludge management, including advanced filtration and recycle solutions. Sold to municipal corporations and public-sector utilities.
• Package Sewage Treatment Packaged sewage treatment plant solutions providing pre-engineered, skid-mounted biological treatment for smaller-scale municipal and decentralized sewage applications.
• EnviroCOLA® Customised OnLine Assistance digital solution providing remote information and monitoring of wastewater treatment systems for installed customers. Sold as a value-added digital service to plant owners and operators.
• Enzymes (BBE-1 and BBE-2) Non-bacterial active enzymes (BBE-1 and BBE-2) that improve biodegradation efficiency, degrade refractory COD and colour, and maintain healthy bio systems in wastewater treatment plants. Sold as consumables to plant operators.
• Micronutrients (BBM-1 and BBM-2)
