How our water reuse wheel wash system aids environmental compliance, improves productivity and saves costs.
Environmental compliance is a top priority for construction projects, with regulations becoming increasingly stringent worldwide. Not only does adherence to these regulations ensure legal compliance, but it also enhances the reputation and profitability of construction companies. One effective strategy for meeting environmental standards while simultaneously improving profitability is the implementation of water reuse systems. These systems not only aid in environmental compliance but also contribute to cost reduction and resource conservation.
Wheelwash has been at the forefront of developing innovative solutions to address environmental challenges in construction sites. With years of experience refining the Ecowash range, Wheelwash offers high-performance vehicle wheel-wash systems with water recycling capabilities that align with both environmental compliance and profitability objectives.
Installed across various sites, these systems play a pivotal role in preventing the spread of dirt and debris onto public roads and highways.
But how do they function, and what advantages do they offer?
At the core of these water reuse systems is an automatically activated drive-through spray wash mechanism. Designed to efficiently clean vehicles as they pass through, this setup ensures the effective removal of site-related contaminants, promoting cleanliness both on-site and beyond.
What distinguishes these systems is their integration of water recycling technology. Powered by inverter-driven pumps, they boast energy-saving capabilities, reducing consumption by up to 50%.
Utilising a closed-loop system, these wheel-wash systems effectively recycle water, with the largest in the Ecowash range boasting an impressive capacity of over 55,000 litres held in the storage tank.
Ease of setup, maintenance, and cleaning is another notable feature of these systems. While they can be permanent structures built into the ground, their mobile design facilitates convenient installation. Additionally, the water recycling tank’s division into three sections enhances efficiency, aided by baffle and weir plates that assist in particulate settlement and water quality maintenance.
Furthermore, each chamber is equipped with valves for easy sludge removal, simplifying maintenance procedures. Automatic entry and exit sensors further optimise efficiency, enabling seamless operation without manual intervention.
Beyond promoting sustainable water usage, these high-performance wheel-wash systems offer additional benefits. By ensuring vehicles leave the site clean, they effectively reduce the risk of Foreign Object Debris (FOD) on roads and surrounding areas.
In conclusion, the adoption of high-performance wheel-wash systems with water recycling capabilities represents a significant stride towards environmental sustainability and infrastructure cleanliness. By embracing innovative technology and advocating responsible water usage, these systems contribute to a cleaner, safer, and more sustainable future for all.
