How to Properly Handle Concrete Slurry?

How to Properly Handle Concrete Slurry?

With the worldwide recognition of the effects of Silica Dust and increasing incidents of Silicosis, disposal and workspace norms of all the materials that can spread silica dust have become a stringent regime. Not only are there specific exposure standards introduced that industries have to manage, but there are also numerous fines and punishments introduced if the Concrete Slurry Waste is not disposed of properly.

For instance, as it is not allowed to dispose of the slurry wastewater directly into the drains due to its harmful nature. Thus, many industrialists collect the slurry water and wait for it to dry before they dispose of it! This process seems easy but it might take weeks if not months for the slurry wastewater to dry. This can not only lead to tedious waste management tasks but the time, space and effort that this process consumes can result in reduced productivity. Also, it is essential to ensure that workers or other people do not spill the water and that the disposal bags or containers are capable of holding it.

An alternative and effective solution to handle Concrete Slurry:

Instead of relying on such unproductive and time-consuming methods, industries and construction sites that have to manage Concrete slurry can switch to industrial vacuum cleaners! A certified industrial vacuum cleaner can not only effectively clean your slurry dust without any spill, but a certified and customized industrial vacuum can also ensure effective concrete slurry containment and disposal.

To help you make an informed decision, below are the attachments and features of an Industrial Vacuum Cleaner that ensures effective slurry wastewater management:

  1. Strong Suction:

Our Industrial Vacuums come with strong and powerful suction and thus, with the use of a wet vacuum you can easily clean areas that have slurry wastewater in one single instance! This not only ensures effective cleaning but also saves a lot of time and increases productivity in the long run. Also, compared to traditional methods, industrial vacuums are a much safer alternative for effective silica dust containment and thus, it will also contribute towards the better health of your workers.

  1. Strong plastic bags for dust collection:

Instead of using commercial vacuums that come with dust containers and bagless dust storage that requires you to transfer the dust multiple times, you can switch to industrial vacuums and use its affordable and easy storage plastic bags! This will not only help in easy storage of slurry wastewater, but you can also dispose of it easily.

  1. Type-H vacuum with HEPA Filter:

For all those industries that have to deal with materials that contain silica, the authoritative and governing bodies have recommended the use of certified Type-H Industrial Vacuums that comes with HEPA filter. This is one of the most effective ways for silica dust containment.

Concrete Slurry cleaning and disposal is a tough regime and it requires stringent protocols of cleaning and disposal to ensure that you save your workers and personnel from fatal silicosis and save your organization from unwanted fines and punishments.
