Concrete Washout
with Aro evo series Electric diaphragm pump case study 

By ARO and Burt Process

WHAT IS CONCRETE WASHOUT?

Concrete is a composite material composed of water, cement, and aggregate that is often used at construction sites. Concrete washout is essential in the construction industry after the mixing and pouring process. After the concrete is poured from ready-to-mix concrete trucks and pump trucks, they need to be washed and cleaned thoroughly to prevent buildup and blockage. This process entails collecting, retaining, and recycling the concrete washout water and solids to prevent contact with soil, surface, and ground waters. 

THE APPLICATION

The washout procedure must be carried out in compliance with environmental regulations. As a contractor, it's crucial to maintain a safe and secure workspace. A detailed washout plan is necessary to preserve the environment from ecological damage. Concrete waste management minimizes pollutants from being released into stormwater. To effectively manage concrete washout, it's imperative to have a pump with sufficient deadhead pressure to ensure proper drying of the filtered material.

WHY IS CONCRETE WASHOUT IMPORTANT?

  • Environmental protection
  • Observe the law
  • Flood Prevention
  • Maintaining a safe and secure job site

 THE ARo-EVO Series Solution

Designed specifically for the demanding needs of the construction industry, the EVO Series offers exceptional performance and reliability.
