Long Beach CA – National Plant Services, Inc., a progressive company providing sewer cleaning services throughout California and adjacent states, has two new mobile water jet sewer cleaning systems that use water reclamation technology to capture, filter, and reuse wastewater in the cleaning of sewers. This technology enables these systems to complete an entire day of cleaning with just 1,000 gallons of water, as opposed to the more than 8-10,000 gallons of potable drinking water used by traditional water jet sewer cleaning systems.
“California faces increasing water shortages,” says Dennis Keene, president of National Plant Services. “The efficiencies and savings that these systems offer will significantly reduce the volume of drinking water required for sewer cleaning.”
The new mobile systems, RECycler 315 water reclamation truck-based units made by J. Hvidtved Larsen A/S of Denmark, use a five-step continuous cleaning process employing filters and settling tanks to clean jetting water and recycle it for re-use.
Larsen trucks, while new to the United States, are widely used and valued across Europe for their ability to reduce water use. National Plant Service is currently the only company in the western United States with these trucks.
High-velocity water jet cleaning of sewers is an extremely effective and necessary technique, but requires high volumes of water. The capability of the RECycler 315 to capture and recycle that water reduces water use without affecting, in any way, the effectiveness of the cleaning work. In addition, since traditional water jet cleaning trucks cannot carry the full volume of water they need for a day of cleaning, cleaning operations must stop repeatedly in order to replenish the water tanks, significantly reducing operational efficiency. The new National Plant Services trucks can work continuously until the day’s work is complete, increasing efficiency and reducing costs.
