utp umwelttechnik pöhnl GmbH
About
utp umwelttechnik pöhnl GmbH, founded in 2002 and based in Seybothenreuth, Bavaria, is a second-generation family business with around 30 employees that manufactures all wastewater treatment components in-house—from tanks and SBR kits to control units. The residential line includes the klärbox for 4–12 PE achieving treatment class C only, and the klärofix for 4–50 PE supporting all five treatment classes (C, N, D, +H, +P) with 75% sludge storage capacity and modular expandability—over 30,000 units delivered. The klärocom serves municipalities from 51 PE upward with multi-lane configurations and all discharge classes. Industrial applications are addressed by the kläropro-SBR for site-specific treatment and the kläropro-DAF dissolved air flotation system removing up to 95% suspended solids, 99% oils and fats, and 85% COD/BOD. The FBR-container fixed-bed reactor uses biofilm on solid growth bodies and is available for purchase or rental. The SBF suspended bed filter provides certified third-stage treatment achieving 94% settleable solids reduction without external energy or mechanical components. Control technology centers on the klärcontrol unit with touch panel and WiFi, complemented by S2M technology enabling up to 10-year sludge storage intervals and the homebook 2.0 digital platform with AI-supported analysis. A defining design principle eliminates all electrical components from wastewater contact, using pneumatic air-lift pumps and linear piston compressors with 5-year warranties. utp received the world's first DIBt approval for remote monitoring of small wastewater treatment plants in 2010.
