BVAC FOOD WASTE COLLECTION with vacuum technology
Avoids cross-contamination and simplifies staff streams in kitchens
In commercial and industrial kitchen areas,
storing food waste in open garbage bins
is unhygienic and can result in cross
contamination. Food waste starts to rot quickly,
generating strong odours and even toxic
corrosive gases. With the Bvac Food Waste
System, waste is processed and transported
in an enclosed vacuum piping network to a
dedicated holding tank that can be located
away from food-preparation areas. With vacuum
drainage you benefit from a high degree of
flexibility in terms of piping routing and layout.
The macerated waste can then be treated at a
biogas plant and used for energy production.
Benefits
• Fully automatic operation
• Highly efficient and reliable vacuum generation
• Full/half flush to minimise water consumption
• Hygienic solution confines odours and contaminants
• Reduces risk of accidents related to waste handling, such as back injuries and slips
• Saves space by eliminating the need for temporary waste storage in kitchens
Complete system includes:
• Feeding stations (normal &/or heavy-duty)
• Vacuum generation and discharge pumps skid
• Holding tank
BVAC FOOD WASTE COLLECTION
The Bvac Food Waste System uses vacuum conveying technology, greatly
reducing the risk of blockages in the piping. A high efficiency rotary
claw pump is used to create the vacuum pressure in the piping network
and discharge pumps manage the transfer to the holding tank, slurry recirculation and discharge outside of the building. The system uses small-diameter (DN50–DN75) piping to transport waste from the feeding stations to the vacuum collection unit without the need for a constant slope.
Feeding stations are located in kitchen areas where food waste is generated. The number
of stations depends on the size and layout of the kitchen. Food shredder units are also available for heavy-duty waste such as bones and fibrous materials. The stations are safe, easy to use, clean, and maintain.
