Atmospheric Evaporator Wastewater Treatment Systems

Atmospheric Evaporator Water Treatment

Atmospheric evaporators are a proven technology utilizing forced air to evaporate wastewater. What is left is a concentrated form of the raw wastewater that can be shipped at a lower cost. This technology is suited for low volume wastewater or regenerant from ion exchange treatment system, if the regeneration cycles are long.

Contact us at info@solutionsrecovery.com for applicability of this technology for your shop. We can provide you with comprehensive information about atmospheric evaporators, including their principles of operation, design considerations, and applications. Whether you are an engineer, a wastewater treatment plant manager, or a decision-maker in the wastewater industry, our services will provide you with the information you need to understand how atmospheric evaporators can be a valuable addition to your wastewater treatment infrastructure.

Atmospheric Evaporator Water Treatment is designed for small low volume wastewater. It consists of a tank, a blower, and ductwork to properly discharge vapor from this process. The evaporation process can be expedited by heating the waste solution.
