The CLP Wastewater Treatment System is ideal for numerous pressure washing applications. Water Maze’s CLP mechanical filtration systems are the standard in the high-pressure cleaning industry for automated wash-water recycling. CLP systems are totally automated to monitor and control the system’s functions including filtration, recirculation, filter backwash and sludge discharge.
The secret to the CLP’s effectiveness is the way the 10 cone-shaped coalescing plates are stacked, providing up to 490 sq. ft. of oil-attracting surface area. The cone-shaped design forces the wastewater to the edges of the tank, which simulates water flowing from a 1 1/2-inch pipe into a 4-ft. pipe. This slowing of the water flow enhances the settling and removal of suspended solids such as dirt.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Perfect For: Heavy equipment cleaning, manufacturing, trucking & transportation
Industrial-grade ultraviolet ozone generator
1/3 to 1/2 hp submersible and filter pumps for maintaining high flow rates
185 – 490 sq. ft. of cone-shaped coalescing plates for optimum separation of oil and solids from wash water
OIL-WATER SEPARATION
Oil-water separation is a process that enhances the natural separation of oil from water so the oil floats on the surface of the water.
Pro: It effectively removes or skims “free” oils from the water surface making water safer for reuse or disposal
Con: It is not effective in removing emulsified oils that are often trapped within the water molecules by detergents or other cleaning agents
The CL Commercial Water Filtration System from Water Maze treats and recycles industrial wastewater. No other wash-water treatment system is as versatile and modular as the CL series. The six models can stand alone or be matched with a Filter Pac III module (below) to serve as a solids separator, a treat-and-discharge unit or a recycle system. The secret of the CL system is the effectiveness of the ten Coalescing Cones. The cone-shaped design forces the water to the edges of the tank creating the effect of water flowing from a 1-1/2 inch pipe into a 4-ft. tunnel. The dramatic reduction in velocity prevents channeling, enhances the separation process causing oil droplets to group & float, and forces solids to sink.

CL-30: Pre-treats wastewater as a solids separator
CL-600D: Treats and discharges wash water to the sanitary sewer
CL-603: Full recycling systems when matched with the modular Filter Pac III

HBG Conventional Wastewater Evaporator eliminate excess industrial wastewater. HBG Evaporators use conventional hot-plate technology with a unique high-efficiency combustion chamber to dispense 90% to 95% of a waste stream.
HBG Evaporators are heated by natural gas and are capable of evaporating wastewater at rates from 8 to 30 gallons per hour. The all-electric HBE features eight 2600-watt coil-type heaters and can be configured with either 230V 3ph or 460V 3ph.
As a way to increase energy costs savings, the combustion box in the HBG models is made of advanced heat reflective material and features a unique energy-efficient design for reflecting the heat directly onto the floor of the evaporation tank. All Water Maze HGB/E units are made of heavy-duty steel. They are insulated and double lined for energy efficiency and safety.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Perfect For: Heavy equipment cleaning, manufacturing, marina & shipping, metal finishing, trucking & transportation
Heavy-duty tank made of carbon steel with optional alloy upgrades to 316L or AL-6XN stainless steel
Non-fouling, stainless steel, liquid level assembly prevents damage to the system with a redundant third float for protection against overflowing
High-efficiency burner fueled by natural gas or propane for unusually high-energy efficiency
Three-inch, recessed drain port for easy sludge removal
WASTEWATER EVAPORATION
Like a pan of water on the stove, wastewater subjected to heat is evaporated leaving the pollutants to be skimmed off or disposed of as sludge. It short, wastewater evaporators safely and naturally eliminates the water portion of a waste stream leaving behind only the gunk, usually about 5%-10% of the total volume, to dispose of.
The technology used in wastewater evaporators is typically either immersion heating (pan on a stove) or submerged combustion (sending the heat into a tube immersed in water). Water Maze has systems with both technologies.
Pro: It effectively minimizes the wastewater so there’s only a fraction left to dispose of
Con: It requires disposal of (minimal) hazardous wastes and heating fuel costs
The Water Maze Alpha is a highly effective, above-ground oil-water separator that discharges wash water to the sanitary sewer at rates of up to 30 GPM. The Alpha’s proprietary “maze”, including 1000 sq. ft. of inclined coalescing plates, rapidly draws oil from wash water. The plates are strapped together in packs and are easily lifted out for cleaning.
