Efficient and sustainable: Remawash washing plant for concrete and rubble aggregates
In the construction and recycling industry, reuse of concrete and rubble aggregates has become increasingly important. Besides saving natural resources, recycling construction materials contributes to more sustainable and cost-effective operations. Our mobile washing plant for concrete and rubble aggregates offers an innovative solution to clean and reuse these materials on site. This blog post explains how this mobile washing plant works, the benefits it offers and why it is the future of sustainable construction.
What does the Remawash mobile washing unit do?
The Remawash mobile washing plant is specially designed to clean concrete and rubble aggregates so that they can be reused in new construction projects. Demolition work often releases a large amount of concrete rubble and other debris. This debris often contains contaminants such as dust, clay, silt, soil and other unwanted materials. The mobile washing plant removes these contaminants and ensures that the aggregate is clean, durable and of high quality for reuse.
The great advantage of our system is that it is mobile, which means that you can bring the machine directly to the demolition or construction site. This not only saves transportation costs, but also allows for quick processing on site.
How does the mobile washing unit work?
The operation of our mobile washing plant is sophisticated but simple to use. The process goes through the following steps:
The crushed concrete and rubble aggregates are first sieved with a mobile screening machine, separating the fine fractions. The 6/56 mm fraction goes directly to the mobile washer. This washer is equipped with an Archimedes screw in combination with paddles. This provides powerful friction and abrasion of the material as it is moved upward, resulting in a clean end product. An adjustable water flow rate flows upward through the scrubber, which effectively separates contaminants and organic particles. These impurities are then discharged through a dewatering screen, while the water is reused in a closed-loop process.
Advantages of the Remawash mobile washing system
1. Higher quality of granules
By thoroughly cleaning the concrete and rubble aggregate, impurities such as clay, dust and organic matter are removed. This results in clean, high-quality aggregates that meet the requirements for reuse in new concrete mixes and other applications. This significantly improves the quality of the final product.
2. Sustainable and environmentally friendly:
Recycling of building materials reduces dependence on primary raw materials, such as sand and gravel, and helps to reduce CO2 emissions. Our mobile washing plant is in line with this sustainable trend by converting waste materials into reusable raw materials. In addition, the water recycling system minimizes water consumption, further reducing environmental impact.
3. Cost savings:
Reusing cleaned aggregate reduces the need to purchase new raw materials, resulting in significant cost savings. In addition, the mobile nature of the facility eliminates expensive transportation costs for moving debris to outside processing facilities. Working on-site also allows you to work more efficiently and save time.
4. Flexibility and mobility
The mobile washing unit is easy to move from one location to another. This makes it possible to respond quickly to changing project needs and serve multiple sites with one machine. The compact design and easy installation ensure that the machine is quickly operational at any construction or demolition site.
5 Increased circular construction opportunities
The construction industry is increasingly moving toward a circular economy, where materials are reused rather than thrown away. Our mobile washing plant facilitates this process by ensuring that concrete and rubble aggregates meet reuse requirements. This contributes to a more sustainable construction industry and helps companies reduce their carbon footprint.
Applications
Our mobile washing plant can be used in various sectors:
Demolitions: Clean debris directly at the demolition site and prepare it for reuse in new construction projects.
Recycling centers: Process large quantities of construction waste and debris for further recycling.
Infrastructure projects: Reuse of concrete and rubble in road construction, foundations and other infrastructure projects.
Concrete manufacturing: Incorporate recycled materials into new concrete mixes for a more sustainable construction process.
Conclusion
The Remawash mobile washing plant for concrete and rubble aggregates offers an advanced and sustainable solution for cleaning and reusing construction materials. By processing materials on site, you reduce transportation costs, improve the quality of aggregates and contribute to a circular construction chain. At a time when sustainability is becoming increasingly important, this washing plant can be a valuable investment for any construction or recycling company looking to move towards a more efficient and environmentally friendly process.
