Automatic Wash Water Recycler

Companies that use industrial washers are coming under increased pressure to recycle their wash water rather than let it drain into the sewer or onto the ground. Cleaning up, it seems, is dirty business.

Pressure washer manufacturer Landa Water Cleaning Systems also produces wash water recycling systems, and its latest-the computer-controlled CLP-9044 — automatically backwashes filters, polishes standing water during the night, and eliminates sludge buildup on a regular cycle. It’s quick, able to recycle wash water at a rate of up to 40 gallons per minute.

The unit’s multi-media and activated carbon filters are backwashed when a sensor registers a pressure differential increase of 10 psi or more. Valves are opened and closed automatically each night to create a two-stage recirculation of standing water in the tanks and collection pit, injecting ozone and polishing the water with each pass. Sludge is dumped at least twice a day — and more often, if needed — from the 600-gallon cone-bottom tank and deposited into a sludge tub and burlap bag, where the water drains off leaving the solids to dry.

The CLP system is most commonly used in high-pressure washing operations where there is a high level of oil, dirt, and other solids in the wash water.
