SolarTiger GmbH
Since 2000 our CEO Thomas Rothmaier has concentrated on the treatment of residues of the biological sewage clarification. The ambition is the reduction of the amount of the disposable sewage sludge. The focus has developed from optimizing the biological treatment to mass reduction with the aid of the solar sewage sludge drying. The advantage of the solar sewage sludge drying is the mass reduction of the sewage sludge of about 70 – 96%. The working costs are low because of the use of the natural solar radiation and an optimal economically result could be obtained. With the power of the sun it is the most reasonable way to remove water from the sewage sludge.

About Us
In 2004 Thomas Rothmaier built the first solar drying plant with an all-over underfloor heating for sewage sludge on the wastewater treatment plant in Murnau.
In the 2005 the first drying plant as an operator model followed in Allershausen. This has been the basis for the automatisation and the optimation of the drying technology. This development led to the launching of the SolarTiger® technology in the year 2010. Today the SolarTiger® GmbH concentrates on the construction of solar drying plants and prevention of nasty odours connected with dewatered sewage sludge.
Contracting For Solar Drying
Many operators of waste water treatment plants realize the advantages of the solar drying. Often they don’t want to invest their budget funds in the last step of the wastewater clarification. Our solution for that is our contracting model! Since 2005 we have collected experiences on our solar drying plant in Allershausen.
The idea
- We finance and construct the solar drying plant
- The operator of the waste water treatment plant delivers the sewage sludge for a defined time for money to us in the solar drying plant
- We ensure in common with the operator properly operating of the solar drying plant.
- We ensure the properly disposal of the sewage sludge
After the expiration of the defined term the operator can acquire the solar drying plant.
The advantages for the operator:
- We undertake the service of the solar drying plant
- We assume the guarantee for the machines and the plant
- The operator has not to provide funding for the plant
- The solar drying plant is financed by the utilization of the sewage sludge and so it is possible to reduce the costs of the utilization from the first operating year.
Financing
The solar drying plant is financed by the utilization of the sewage sludge and so it is possible to reduce the costs of the utilization from the first operating year.
