Enterprise Ventures Corporation (EVC) has developed a greywater recycling system that is said to recycle 70% to 90% of greywater used in commercial and industrial laundry operations and other applications not requiring potable water.
EVC – a wholly owned affiliate of Concurrent Technologies Corporation (CTC) – said that its system is especially beneficial in areas where existing and new commercial laundry facilities must adhere to permits that require water recycling.
The Twin Ultra Greywater Recycling System uses membrane filtration as opposed to media filtration (sand, activated carbon, or other material) used in many existing water recycling systems. The membrane filtration technology offers many benefits to the filtration process including filtration path stability and reduced maintenance and operator time. The system is computer controlled and continuously monitors the water quality at various points through the filtration process, making real-time adjustments to ensure consistent quality in the filtered water output.
In addition to the base model, which is designed for most low to moderate detergent laundry applications, EVC’s Ultra Twin Plus can be used in laundries processing heavily soiled fabrics where high detergent and chemical use is required.
“EVC is building on an impressive background in innovative water reuse systems,” said Brian Ott, EVC water technologies product manager. “EVC’s system evolved from technology developed by our parent company, Concurrent Technologies Corporation (CTC). The original CTC system won a Silver Edison Award in the energy and sustainability category. Our engineers are optimising that expertise to bring state-of-the-art, customised water solutions where they are needed.”
