Truck Wash Water Recycling and Mangement

Each wash element on the MAXIMUS permanent and portable wheel wash systems are constructed with an integrated, sloped, steel pan designed to capture and discharge the wash water into both a steel or concrete truck wash water recycling and solid separation tank. Flocculent is then introduced to the system to assist with solid separation and decrease the amount of detention time needed to deliver optically clear, recycled water.

In gravity flow in-ground and portable wheel wash systems, as the system runs, th e wash water flows directly into an adjacent steel or concrete truck wash water recycling and solid separation tank via steel or concrete flumes. On all prefabricated steel systems, the number of flumes is determined by the overall length of the wash platform. In systems with above ground tanks, the wash water discharges into an adjacent water collection chamber, allowing for continual system operation. The collection chamber houses a pump that returns the water and solids to the water recycling and solid separation tank.
