Providing clean water in Qatar

By General, Press Release, Project Report

HYPERCLASSIC® systems provide clean water in Qatar

While star athletes are running on the soccer fields of Qatar, things are also running smoothly at the country’s largest wastewater treatment – thanks to the reliable hyperboloid mixing and aeration systems from INVENT.

The desert is alive! Wherever animals and people settle in the driest regions of our planet, water plays a vital role. The fact that some countries experience an economic boom despite the desert climate comes down to other causes, such as natural resources like oil and gas.

The resources that bubble up each day make dreams come true, build ultramodern cities with trading centers and tourism infrastructure, and even create living spaces in the desert for millions of people. Now more than ever, Qatar is in the public eye as the host of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

The capital of Doha and the neighboring city of Al Rayyān in particular is right now playing host to sports-loving businesspeople, media representatives, and private individuals from all over the world. More than one-third of the 2.8 million inhabitants of the desert state live in the city of Doha. Residents and guests need food and in particular water for drinking and domestic use. This is a challenge in the dry, hot climate of the Persian Gulf, and every drop of freshwater is precious.

The city planners are prepared for this. The vast majority of the freshwater is sourced from seawater desalination plants. This is then pumped into the water circulation system and used for human consumption or agriculture. The water and wastewater treatment plants are indispensable parts of this system in this and other modern cities.

The largest in the country is currently the Doha West wastewater treatment plant. Since it was put into operation in 2009, the plant has been expanded several times and is now able to treat an average of 280,000 cubic meters of water each day. Slightly more than 50 percent of the treated wastewater is used for agriculture and around 40 percent is used to water green spaces in the city. The rest is fed into the ground to raise the groundwater level.

To ensure that the plant works smoothly, the client chose technology from Germany – from INVENT, to be precise. No fewer than 48 HYPERCLASSIC®-Mixing and Aeration Systems and 24 HYPERCLASSIC®-Mixers reliably perform their duties in various tanks at the plant each day.

In this way, INVENT technology is contributing to Doha not only being a modern city, but also a green one in which residents and guests can enjoy spending time outdoors and where thriving agriculture is possible nearby. Once the World Cup is over and the next large event is being planned, the HYPERCLASSIC® systems will continue to turn—the final whistle won’t be blown on them any time soon.

Young people are our future

By General, News

Young people are our future

INVENT supports the “Jugendwerkstatt” (youth workshop) of the Diakonie Erlangen this year. Disadvantaged or individually handicapped, unemployed young adults are trained here as carpenters and woodworking specialists. In the youth workshop they receive the support they need for their lives. A qualified team of instructors and teachers provides this unique, intensive support.

With great commitment and passion we at INVENT work daily on the purification and treatment of water and wastewater and would like to use our donation to enable young people to find their way into the working world.

INVENT wishes you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2023!

Nutrition coaching at INVENT

By General, Health campaign

We prepare a healthy and sustainable dinner

With the INVENT health campaign, we want to increase the health awareness of our employees and improve their health. Nutrition is one of the cornerstones of a healthy and balanced lifestyle.

Together with qualified ecotrophologist, mindfulness trainer and certified nutritionist Antje Bartnes, we were able to prepare a healthy and sustainable dinner, discover new recipes and – in the subsequent keynote speech – learn a lot of new things about healthy nutrition in the evening. One or the other nutritional myth around the topic of dinner was debunked and no question remained unanswered.

When cooking, the focus was on regional, seasonal and sustainable ingredients. All dishes should be varied, easy and quick to cook. In small teams we prepared a savoy cabbage and apple slaw, spicy lentil stew with ginger, a beetroot cashew mousse, hummus and oven-roasted vegetables, as well as vegan coconut macaroons and a blueberry quark. We ended the evening with a meal together and interesting conversations.

Petra from 4activity gets us in shape!

By General, Health campaign, Team

Weekly functional office training

Hard but sincere! That’s how you could describe “our” personal trainer Petra, because as likeable and kind as she is, she is as tough as nails in training. Petra from 4activity has been working with us on our fitness and health for three years now. In the weekly training sessions, she really makes us sweat and ensures that we stay fit. Petra reacts very flexibly to the training requests of the participants, so her training sessions contain units of classic back gymnastics, fascia training or DeepWork as standard. Every now and then she also mixes up the program with HIIT, functional training or TaeBo units. Training for runners of all kinds is also part of her repertoire. You never know what the training session will entail, which has already given us many a sore muscle. We look forward to a new training session with our Petra every week!

Delegation from Kenya, Tanzania & Zanzibar

Delegation visits INVENT

The international department of the Bildungswerk der Bayerischen Wirtschaft (bbw) has been conducting training and business initiation trips with emerging countries on behalf of the Bavarian Ministry of Economic Affairs for many years. INVENT is involved in these activities and welcomed a delegation of water and wastewater specialists from Kenya, Tanzania & Zanzibar to the company headquarters in Erlangen-Eltersdorf on July 21, 2022. This was preceded by a WEBINAR in October 2021, also organized by the bbw and held by INVENT, for representatives of the Kenyan water and wastewater industry.

The participants listened with interest to the explanations given by Mrs. Andrea Köhler, sales representative, and were able to get a ‘up close’ impression of the wide range of INVENT products in the field of water and wastewater treatment during the subsequent tour of the laboratories, production halls and outdoor facilities.

We would like to thank our guests for their visit!

INVENT at the company run 2022

INVENT runners cannot be stopped! Yesterday they defied the hot temperatures of 35° degrees Celsius and ran the nearly 6 km of the B2Run in Nuremberg at their fastest personal pace. They were in good company: around 10,000 participants from 440 companies ran together. The varied route led along the beautiful dozen pond to the finish line in the Max Morlock Stadium. Afterwards, the INVENT team enjoyed a cool drink in the shade. Well deserved!
