Municipal/Wastewater Treatment

Mining Process

Waste produced by the mining process is run through the DryVac system and recovers the water for reuse but dries the remaining waste for a cost effect product to send to the class A land fill.

Municipal Process

The DryVac system takes the waste affluent and reclaims the water for reuse and the solids are dried and pasteurized for use as a” Class A” fertilizer, fuel or clean land fill material.

Oil Drilling Residue

Drilling mud’s can be totally recycled using the DryVac technology. The water is separated from the mud and sent back for reuse in the drilling processes, while the solids are used for clean fill, trucked to a land fill at a reduced cost, or in an additional process, run through a Kiln and used for pad or road base.

Wood Chips

Wood chips run through the new DES” Cannon” drying system are rid of insects and dry the product for a better fuel and lighter product for shipping.

Hazardous Material Applications

In contrast to other processes, DryVac's ability to remove liquid in an enclosed environment is of special interest to Hazardous Waste generators. Waste generators know that most disposal companies are "paid to haul it". By using DryVac at the generating location, we are creating a dry waste material. This means less liquid, less weight, less trips, less man-hours and less cost for you.

Irradiated Materials

Although DryVac can dewater and dry these wastes, we are a strong producer as well. Mini units like this one have not only treated radiated materials but have been used in forming "yellow cake" type materials as well. Units of various sizes from .5 cubic feet to 5 cubic meters are available.

Metal Hydroxides

DryVac has installed many facilities for drying metal hydroxides. One forty foot unit takes 2,500 gallons @2-3% solids and, in less than 2 1/2 hours, creates material at 50% solids for transport, thus reducing their previous disposal costs by two thirds. Silicone and other hazardous metals are dried in many other current DryVac sites.

Tank Wastes

Wastes produced in Oil refining, Chemical Production and other Industrial Applications in which a company is able to treat the water but must haul the sludge are our favorite challenge. We simply mobilize a DryVac and return the liquid to the plant to reuse, leaving dry solids in a roll off bin to be hauled away. It dramatically reduces your transportation, labor and disposal costs. Why haul a liquid?

Chemical Process Applications

In Chemical Process work, time and money is everything. If you are thermal drying, you have to scrub the exhaust from the process.

With DryVac, the fumes are contained and the product is compressed. This presents a definite advantage because materials are dewatered and dried much faster allowing for shorter cycle times and lower overall cost. This saves your company Time and Money

Metals Processing

Although the process is proprietary in nature, this unit is currently being used to manufacture a plating compound for the metals fabrication industry. This “little” 10 cubic foot unit is the same basic design as any other, but allows this company to create and dry a product in an enclosed environment. No fumes from the drying process are vented to the atmosphere and the resulting liquid is reused.

Pigment Processing

Over the years, DryVac has installed systems for pigment manufactures. The DryVac process occupies a smaller area than normal Thermal Drying Processes. The DryVac requires no emissions control unlike other more intensive systems. A reduced energy cost was noted in these facilities as well.

Plastics

One of our clients was literally losing money down the drain. Processed waste materials, “plastic nodes”, were found in the process waste stream. We developed a method to pump the wastewater containing this material into the DryVac. Once the material was dried, the nodes could then be reused. With DryVac, this company recovered significant lost revenue.
