WATERWASH is made up of a filterpress equipped with large filter panels, specially designed for contact with concrete.
By applying the correct pressure, these filter panels separate the water from the fines; the water can be used for other purposes or put into a new concrete batch cycle.
A pH metering and adjustment system is available if the mix design requires pH-neutral water.
WATERWASH filterpress can be easily transported since it is installed into a pre-wired and pre-plumbed standard container equipped with lights, insulation, and heating as necessary for the climate it will operate in.
Through a modern PLC system, the operator has complete control of all aspects of the unit and can set the correct filtering for job site specifications.
WATERWASH 1.0 has the capacity to treat up to 10 m3/h of slurry water, while the 2.0 version can treat up to 20 m3/h.
The solid content in the discharge water can be as low as < 0,1 gr/lt.
1. The process begins with the mixer or truck washout.
2. Extra concrete is diluted with clean water through pipes
3. The diluted concrete is discharged into the hopper, equipped with conveying pipes
4. BETONWASH works automatically until the complete extraction of aggregates (up to 0.15 mm)
5. The system periodically starts the agitator to avoid the settlement of fine materials
6. Slurry water is received from the WATERWASH from a specific deposit tank
7. WATERWASH separates water from concrete generating a “cake” of aggregates that can be reused in the concrete production
8. Clean water can be reused in the plant for site activity
9. A PH adjustment is available to check water conditions
