Wastewater Evaporator suits metalworking industry.

Press Release Summary:




Natural gas-heated HBG wastewater evaporator, also adaptable for liquid propane, has double-lid design that facilitates access to tank. Using refractory ceramic, combustion box requires 390,000 BTU/hr to evaporate up to 30 gph. Product, suited for handling industrial wastewater and managing non-hazardous waste streams, provides one-step process that can reduce waste stream by concentrating it up to 95%.

Water Maze Announces Upgrades to Industrial Wastewater Evaporator



Water Maze, a leading manufacturer of wastewater treatment systems, has announced significant improvements to its natural gas-heated HBG wastewater evaporator.

The HBG wastewater evaporator, which can be adapted for liquid propane, features a combustion chamber design that is 60% larger, which results in an extra energy-efficient burn. Using high-density refractory ceramic, the combustion box requires only 390,000 BTU/hour to evaporate up to 30 gallons per hour as compared to 500,000 - 550,000 BTU/hour in conventional systems.

Such savings can reduce operating costs to only pennies per gallon, depending on local fuel costs.

The new HBG evaporator, which is especially effective for handling wastewater in the metalworking industry, is nearly 40% longer, with an extra 20 gallons of tank capacity and also features a new double-lid design for easier access to the tank itself.

Metalworking fluid sump life can vary depending on how well it is maintained, type and grade of cutting fluid used and how well anaerobic bacteria is controlled. Once lubricating properties have declined, the metalworking fluid must be disposed of at a high cost.

The metalworking industry can choose from primary treatment options to manage non-hazardous waste streams, such as: sewer discharge, hauling off site, in-house treatment through chemical separation, or evaporation. With today's increased cradle-to-grave liabilities, hauling metalworking fluid is becoming a less attractive form of disposal. Evaporation is a simple "one step" process that can reduce a waste stream by concentrating it up to 95%.
