Hamburg Worldwide
Hamburg is the second largest city in Germany and with Hamburg Harbor, its principal port, Hamburg is also the second largest port city in Europe. The official name Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg refers to the membership of Hamburg in the medieval Hanseatic League and the fact that Hamburg is a City State and one of the 16 Federal States of Germany.
Hamburg is geographically located between Continental Europe and Scandinavia and be-tween the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. The city of Hamburg lies at the junction of the river Elbe with the rivers Alster and Lake AuĂen-alster.
Hamburg is an international trade city and the commercial and cultural center of Northern Germany. The state and administrative city cov-ers an area of 750 km2 with 1.8 million
inhabit-ants, while another 0.8 million live in neighbor-ing urban areas. The Hamburg Metropolitan Region includes some districts in the adjacent federal states of Schleswig-Holstein and Lower Saxony and covers 18,100 km2 with a
popula-tion of over 4.5 million.
The most significant economic basis for Ham-burg in the past centuries has been (and still is) its harbor, which ranks 9th worldwide with transshipments of 9.8 million standard contain-er units (TEUR) and 134 million tons of goods in 2007. A large part of the port is a duty-free area. International trade is also the reason for the large number of consulates in the city.
HAMBURG
Moreover, Hamburg is one of the worldâs lead-ing locations for civil aviation. Hamburg is the headquarter of the management of Airbus Ger-many and with more than 11,000 employees it is the largest Airbus site in Germany. Alongside Seattle and Toulouse, Hamburg is now among the three leading aviation sites in the world. In the Hamburg plant the single-aisle Airbus series A318, A319 and A321 are finally assem-bled. Additionally, in Hamburg extensive work packages for the huge A380 are produced. Other important industries are media busi-nesses, most notably three of the largest pub-lishing companies in Germany. Approx. half of national newspapers and magazines in Ger-many are produced in Hamburg. There are also a number of music companies and Internet businesses. Heavy industry includes a steel, an aluminum and Europeâs largest copper plant, and a number of renowned shipyards. Hamburg is one of the most attractive urban centers on international level â exciting, full of life,
green and safe, with a wide variety of people, companies and ideas.
HAMBURG WATER GROUP
stands for the sustainable Use of
Water in the Metropolitan Region
of Hamburg
Water is the basis of all life. Hamburg lives with water like hardly any other city in Germany. The Alster and Elbe rivers as well as the huge port with its countless basins and small channels shape its face. In the middle of the 19th century, Hamburg was the first European continental city to have a centralized system of drinking water supply and wastewater management to be op-erated and maintained by municipal authorities. Later, Hamburg Waterworks (HWW) and Ham-burg Sewage Works (HSE) became successors of these early authorities, providing excellent water services over many decades.
Together we are strong in Water Supply and
Wastewater Management
In order to ensure Hamburgâs excellent drinking water quality and environmentally sound waste-water management at fair prices, on 1 January 2006 HWW and HSE merged in order to form the horizontally organized HAMBURG WASSER group. This kind of corporate structure allows for utilization of numerous synergetic effects for the benefit of the customers, but also for retain-ing of the original HWW and HSE corporate structures necessary to comply with federal tax regulations. Important advantages of the merger include standardized organizational structures, joint human resources development, joint asset management, strengthening of procurement, uniform IT landscape, combined accounting for potable water and wastewater services, and improved construction site coordination. HAMBURG WASSER and its companies are wholly owned by the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg.
Two Companies â One Goal
The service area of HAMBURG WASSER covers not only the city of Hamburg, but almost the complete Metropolitan area, additionally com-prising some 30 neighboring towns and villages, bringing up the population supplied to approx. 2.0 million people. The service area is approx. 2,000 km2.
In the water supply sector, HAMBURG WASSER operates and maintains approx. 480 ground-water wells, 18 ground-water treatment plants with a total supply capacity of approx. 600,000 mÂł/d, 44 storage tanks with a total volume of 322,000 mÂł, and a water distribution network with a total length of 5,500 km. The daily water supply totals at average 320,000 mÂł/d. 230,000 properties in Hamburg are equipped with 240,000 house water meters, while 360,000 individual supply units (apartments) are equipped with 750,000 domestic water meters. As a result of preventive and continuous maintenance, water losses in the Hamburg water supply network are less than 5% of the total production.
The circle in the brand of HAMBURG WASSER stands for the natural water cycle. It symbolizes the identity of potable water supply and wastewater
management. The brandâs clear blue colour represents the purity of our drinking water as well as
of the treated wastewater â today the outlet of our wastewater treatment plant is one of the cleanest
In the wastewater management sector, HAMBURG WASSER operates and maintains a sewage network with a total length of 5,400 km, 209 pumping stations, and two combined waste-water treatment plants with a total treatment ca-pacity of 2.1 million PE (or 500,000 mÂł/d). 23% of the sewer network are combined sewers. Aiming at the reduction of combined sewer and storm-water overflows, an additional network of deep laying intercepting sewers with diameters ranging from 1,500 to 3,000 mm as well as 6 combined stormwater retention basins with a total stor-age capacity of 118,000 mÂł are also in operation. For recycling of the sewage sludge HAMBURG WASSER operates a sludge dewatering and dry-ing plant as well as an sludge incineration plant with far-reaching recovery of energy by means of a gas and a steam turbine.
The executive management of HAMBURG WASSER consists of CEOs Dr. Michael Beckereit and Wolfgang Werner, who jointly control the new group. With sales of approx. 460 million Euro, an annual investment volume of more than 160 mil-lion Euro and 2,500 employees fulfilling exten-sive operational, technical and managerial tasks,
HAMBURG WASSER today is the largest munici-pal water utility in Germany. Despite decreasing specific water consumption and high investments, drinking water prices and wastewater charges in Hamburg are among the most favorable in entire Germany. The goal is to continuously offer high-quality services at reasonable prices.

HAMBURG WASSER â
Partner for sustainable and affordable water supply and wastewater management
The Company
Our Background
CONSULAQUA Hamburg GmbH was estab-lished in 1980. Goal of the company was to commercialize experience of Hamburg Water-works, which over many years had been gath-ered in the fields of technical and commercial management of the urban water supply sys-tems and public baths in the Hamburg Metro-politan area.
However, as a consequence of the rapid growth of mankind over the past decades, in many regions of the world fresh water resources are becoming increasingly scarce. Inadequate provision of water and sanitation services rep-resent major threats not only for public health, but also for economic and social development.
This unfavorable development is aggravated by the global climate change. Therefore, sustainable management of water resources as well as provi-sion of safe and efficient potable water and sani-tation services for the public sector, agriculture, trade, and industry have developed to overriding tasks in the water sector worldwide. Meeting all these challenges in the global water sector, today CONSULAQUAâs fields of activity today com-prise four main fields, namely water resources management, water supply, wastewater manage-ment, and operation and management support.
Corporate Strategy
From our longstanding experience we know about the importance of technical qualification, long-time expertise and advanced project management skills allowing us to achieve the goals of our clients at top quality, reasonable cost and in time. As an essential principle, our entire process organization is project oriented. For quality assurance, and business develop-ment in our four main fields of activity we have formed four departments.
According to the complexity of each particular project we join forces with specialized and local
CONSULAQUA
partner companies. Moreover we have estab-lished strong relationships to renowned univer-sities, consultants, professional associations, and to other operators in the German water sector. Thus, the latest results from science, research and development of technical facilities are directly available to us for the benefit of our clients.

CONSULAQUAâs scope of services contains not only all kind of planning, engineering and consulting services, but also assistance and support
services in technical operations and management, particularly reflecting our close relationship to
Fields of Activity
Water Resources Management
Management of Ground and Surface Water
Resources
Sustainable management of ground and surface water resources is the basis for provision of effi-cient and safe water supply for urban areas, agri-culture, trade, and industry. Our fields of activity comprise determination of catchment zones for the construction of wells, assistance in legal per-mit procedures as well as preparation of dispos-al and recycling strategies. Detailed assessment of the raw water availability by means of hydrau-lic testing, monitoring, and numerical modeling of groundwater flows allows for the set-up of ap-propriate water balances.
Assessment of Soil and Groundwater
Contamination
Hazardous soil and groundwater contamina-tions can cause enormous damages for human individuals as well as fauna and flora. Therefore,
remediation of contaminated sites aims at the protection of precious water resources, preven-tion of health and environ-mental dangers and the reuse of areas formerly used for industrial, commercial, or military purposes. We have long-standing experience with different groups of hazardous substances including gasoline, kerosene, chemical residues, pesticides, and warfare agents.
Groundwater Rehabilitation Plants
According to the type of groundwater and soil contamination, we develop tailor-made proc-ess layouts for mechanical, biological and/or chemical groundwater rehabilitation plants. Prior to planning of remediation schemes we utilize two and three-dimensional mathemati-cal models for simulating groundwater flow and transportation. Strategies for complex in situ and on site treatment plants may be combined with individual groundwater, surface water or surface-to-air remediation technolo-gies aiming at good treatment results and minimized plant operation cost.
River Basin Management
For proper management of river catchment areas a variety of institutional, technical, and economic constraints have to be considered. Typical activi-ties comprise assessment of surface and ground-water use, potentials for irrigation, reservoir performances, water supply capacities, wastewa-ter treatment requirements. Our further activities comprise clarification of institutional and legal requirements, economic analysis of river basins, calculation of cost-covering water prices, devel-opment of integrated economic, ecological, and social sound methods of river basin manage-ment and decision support.
Geographical Information Systems
For the development and management of ground and surface water resources as well as for the operation of wells and groundwater rehabilitation plants we apply geographical in-formation systems. Utilizing large volumes of data based on comprehensive monitoring and surveys application of GIS allows for prepara-tion of digital models demonstrating compre-hensive information on actual condition and time wise change of water resources.
CONSULAQUA provides consulting and operation support services in the following fields:
⢠Water Resources Management
⢠Water Supply
⢠Wastewater Management ⢠Operation and Management
Water Supply
Groundwater Wells and Surface Water
Abstrac-tion Structures
Prerequisite for potable water supply is the effi-cient and reliable abstraction of ground and surface water. Our fields of activity comprise dug wells, deep wells, civil structures and pipes for the abstraction of surface water as well as for the recharge of treated water from wastewater treatment plants for the replenish-ment of groundwater aquifers.
Water Treatment Plants and Storage Tanks
Water treatment plants are tailor-made techni-cal facilities comprising mechanitechni-cal as well as chemical and biological treatment processes. From our experience with the operation and maintenance of our WTPs in Hamburg as well as from design and operational optimization of numerous WTPs in many countries we know how to achieve safe supply and minimized operation cost.
For proper operation of water storage facili-ties the selection of the most suitable type of tank is a decisive factor. We are used to utilize concrete structures with pure inorganic inte-rior coatings only, resulting in highest service lifespan, best hygienic conditions, and lowest maintenance requirements.
Water Transmission Mains and Distribution
Networks
For the calculation of long-distance water transmission mains with huge diameters we use rigorous hydraulic engines allowing transient analysis and water hammer modeling.
For the calculation of water distribution networks we use advanced stand-alone or GIS-integrated modeling tools. We prepare comprehensive hy-draulic network analysis including proposals for the reduction of non-revenue water and identify all measures required to establish well function-ing schemes incorporatfunction-ing modern controllfunction-ing and monitoring systems. For the rehabilitation of worn-out systems we stick to modern and cost-saving rehabilitation technologies such as inlining or coating with cement mortar avoiding complete exchange of pipes.
Industrial Water Supply
For industrial purposes such as production of food or investment goods the requirements for the water to be used in production processes are often very strict. We prepare tailor-made solu-tions for water supply of production processes and for cooling purposes. We carry out design and optimization of treatment plants for process water to be used for different applications such as production of paper, textiles, dyes, or food processing.
Geographical Information Systems
For proper management and maintenance of water distribution networks we utilize compre-hensive geographical information systems, which easily allow for the establishment of an electronic databases using different shells administering all relevant network data (material, production data, slope, diameter, age, mainte-nance intervals, etc.).
CONSULAQUA provides consulting and operation support services in the following fields:
⢠Water Resources Management
⢠Water Supply
⢠Wastewater Management ⢠Operation and Management
Wastewater Management
Sewer and Stormwater Networks
For the calculation of sanitary and combined sewer network systems we use advanced stand-alone or GIS-integrated design tools for both steady-state analysis and dynamic simula-tion. We assist in the introduction of inspection systems including CCTV inspection and classifi-cation of damages in sewer networks. For the replacement of aging sewers we apply innova-tive rehabilitation technologies such as inlining, which have been proved as economic alterna-tives under most challenging environmental conditions.
For the calculation of stormwater networks and facilities we use advanced steady-state pollution load simulations and dynamic modeling of stormwater events. In order to minimize invest-ment cost, we also provide intelligent solutions for optimized utilization of the available retention volume through centralized remote control of stormwater flows in the sewer network system considering weather and various operational conditions.
Wastewater Treatment Plants
According to legal requirements and local con-straints we establish tailor-made designs for municipal wastewater treatment plants aiming at elimination of suspended solids, carbon, or nutrients. From our experience with our large WWTPs in Hamburg as well as from the de-sign and operation of WWTPs under different climatic conditions we know how to achieve all kinds of effluent standards at minimum opera-tion cost.
The sludge resulting from the treatment proc-ess must be treated and utilized environ-men-tally sound. Anaerobic treatment of sewage sludge allows for generation of biogas, which can contribute to significantly reduce external power consumption. For metropoli-tan areas with low availability of land we propose ther-mal utilization of dried sludge in combination with incineration and recovery of energy by using steam and gas turbines.
According to the type of industry and the quality of wastewater we prepare tailor-made designs for internal wastewater recycling
CONSULAQUA
schemes as well as end-of-the-pipe industrial wastewater treatment plants aiming at efficient fulfillment of required effluent standards.
Water Reuse
In semi-arid areas with limited resources of water, effluent water from municipal waste-water treatment plants can be reused for the replenishment of groundwater aquifers or for irrigation in agriculture. From our experience reuse of effluent water can contribute signifi-cantly to save precious water resources in the long run.
Geographical Information Systems
For proper management and maintenance of sewer and stormwater systems we utilize geo-graphical information systems, which easily allow for the update of general drainage plans, digital landscape models, and central coordina-tion of maintenance and construccoordina-tion measures. We also implement GIS-based sewer informa-tion systems. Therefore we introduce applicable software and provide staff training for proper application.
CONSULAQUA provides consulting and operation support services in the following fields:
⢠Water Resources Management ⢠Water Supply
⢠Wastewater Management
Operation and Management
CONSULAQUA provides highly experienced expert staff with a thorough operational or man-agerial background from their work with HAM-BURG WASSER in order to assist and support our clients in all services associated to operation and management of water and wastewater sys-tems and plants. From their work with HAM-BURG WASSER our experts are able to consider any situation from the operatorâs view. We also offer a wide variety of services on administrative and managerial issues required to properly or-ganize all administrative and commercial activi-ties required to sustainably run a water utility.
Operation and Maintenance of Networks
From our experience of operating and maintain-ing the Hamburg water distribution and sewer networks, we offer our support for all network operation services including operational man-agement and maintenance. Our operational experts review and improve network operating and maintaining practices and assist in introduc-tion of sound systems for preventive and regular
maintenance, repair, and documentation includ-ing systematic inspection of assets. For sewer systems we offer comprehensive services for odor control.
Water Loss Reduction
In many regions of the world water utilities suffer from unacceptable levels of physical and administrative water losses (Non Revenue Wa-ter - NRW). High levels of NRW have negative impacts on the financial results of water utilities due to increasing operating costs and reduced revenues. Moreover, if the available water re-sources are scarce, high levels of NRW can also result in water shortages and reduction of the customerâs willingness to pay, further reducing the revenues of water utilities.
Therefore, NRW reduction plays a decisive role to improve the financial situation of water utili-ties as well as the quality of service. From the operation and maintenance of our own water distribution network in Hamburg and projects all over the world we know very well that the expenses for NRW reduction are rapidly offset by the water savings. Key for a successful water
CONSULAQUA
loss reduction is to define a holistic strategy not only depending on identifying priority areas of the network and the network operating policy which needs attention, but also on introducing methodologies to assess, monitor and control elements of water losses including real losses, apparent losses, and unbilled consumption. For the development of a sound NRW strategy we apply a step by step approach. Firstly, we believe that development of continuous mainte-nance standard procedures including systematic inspection and detection of leakages is of para-mount importance. Secondly, we believe that any effort in reducing real water losses requires substantial quality of workmanship in execution of maintenance and repair works. Therefore we assist in improvement of standard procedures and in provide intensive vocational training of technical staff dealing with network maintenance and repair tasks. For ensuring sustainability our training services also encompass motivation of staff, transfer of skills in the field of leakage management and system operation and mainte-nance.
CONSULAQUA provides consulting and operation support services in the following fields:
⢠Water Resources Management ⢠Water Supply
⢠Wastewater Management
Operation and Management
We offer execution of systematic leak detection campaigns for separate parts of the distribution networks including basic net analysis based on the elaboration of water balances according to IWA standards. For the detailed investigation of leakages we apply acoustic sounding methods with sensitive contact microphones, data log-gers, and processing of data through portable computers for the correlation of the leak noise and final leakage localization.
Sewer Networks Condition Assessment
Over the last years, innovative sewer renovation has established itself as an affordable alternative to the replacement of aging sewers. In order to allow for verification of existing network dam-ages, we carry out complete sewer networks condition assessment based on comprehensive CCTV sewer inspection, data collection on struc-tural condition and adaptation and migration of existing data to the GIS-based sewer informa-tion systems. Classificainforma-tion of damages in sewer networks allows for development of suitable
rehabilitation plans. We also offer intensive train-ing of technical staff dealtrain-ing with CCTV sewer inspection.
Operation and Maintenance of Plants and
Pumping Stations
From our experience of operating and maintain-ing water and wastewater treatment plants and related pumping stations in Hamburg and in many countries, we offer our support for all plant and pumping station operation services includ-ing operational management and maintenance. We develop operation concepts and assist in se-lection, procurement and start up of equipment. Our operation experts with sound practical expe-rience elaborate applied work and safety proce-dures for reliable operation, system maintenance and process control. We offer to assist in staffing and perform customized in-house training with the advantage of directly and permanently work-ing together with our counterpart staff on site. We offer assessment on human resources and administrative issues to elaborate and introduce adapted managerial and administrative proce-dures.
Energy Audits
Energy consumption considerably contributes to the total operating costs for water supply and sanitation services. In order to cut high opera-tional expenses and to minimize production of greenhouses gases such as CO2 and NOx the overall energy consumption of electro-mechani-cal facilities must has to be minimized. We offer the introduction of pressure and energy manage-ment programs assessing energy consumption and saving potentials in all operating units. Our experts with sound practical background execute pump tests for determination of flow, pressure and power demand; flow and pressure measure-ments in transmission systems, and inspection of pumps under maintenance.
Moreover we carry out hydraulic calculations of the transmission system. Our experience in con-ducting energy audits shows that considerable saving potentials up to 35% per mÂł are feasible in many cases. Our investigations could ultimately result in an investment program to replace or re-habilitate the identified system elements, wher-ever required. The payback period of such invest-ment usually is in the range of 2 to 3 years.
