Australis Expeditions trusts in HAMANN sewage and wastewater management systems for its vessels STELLA AUSTRALIS and VENTUS AUSTRALIS. Both cruise ships operate in the fjords and channels of Tierra del Fuego, Patagonia. The luxury expedition cruise company takes protecting the enviromnment very serious and has chosen us to supply the sewage treatment technology for their vessels.

Both vessels have been built by ASENAV in Valdivia, Chile. Here are some key facts on the ships:
VENTUS AUSTRALIS

STELLA AUSTRALIS
Year of construction: 2010

The sewage and wastewater management systems on board the vessels are designed to treat black water from toilets and grey water from showers, washbasins, kitchen sinks and laundries, and can process a peak of 24.000 litres of wastewater per day. HAMANN HL-CONT PLUS 10 sewage and wastewater treatment plants with IMO MEPC.227(64) and USCG Type 2 (33 CFR 159) certification are used as a basis. The HAMANN DISSOLVED AIR FLOTATION (DAF) technology used in these plants does not require any filters or membranes, making the plants particularly low-maintenance and reliable.
