About Herbst Umwelttechnik
Herbst Umwelttechnik GmbH is a plant manufacturer based in Berlin that has been active in the field of environmental protection for more than 38 years. The company plans, builds and maintains process engineering plants for gas, water and sludge treatment for the environment and industry. Its range of services includes biogas plants for straw fermentation (including rice straw, soybean straw, elephant grass), biogas and landfill gas purification, wastewater and drinking water treatment as well as suspension, sediment and sludge dewatering. In addition, the company manufactures silo and dosing systems, big-bag dosing stations for biogas plants, incineration plants for plastic waste and special systems, for example for uranium removal from the water phase with the polymer unit GoPur® 3000. Herbst Umwelttechnik also offers engineering services, design work as well as research and development in cooperation with funding institutions. The company is located at Goerzallee 305E in Berlin.
