In a world where sustainable solutions are urgently needed, every meaningful step matters.
Today, we celebrate a significant milestone: the VacuDry® 12 000 Heads to Qatar: A Major Step Toward Cleaner Waste Management, ready to play a vital role in the region’s environmental transformation.
This shipment marks more than just the delivery of equipment – it represents the fulfillment of a promise made in 2024. A promise to deliver not only a machine but a powerful solution to the ongoing challenges of hazardous waste management: a way to handle oily residues not as burdens, but as opportunities for recovery and reuse.
A Project Built on Dedication, Expertise, and Vision
Bringing the VacuDry® 12 000 to life was no small task. It demanded the full commitment of our skilled team, who poured their expertise and passion into every phase – from the initial concept and mechanical design to process engineering, manufacturing, and soon operational readiness.
The VacuDry® 12 000 stands as a result of that vision – a turn-key solution manufactured within just 9 months (EXW), ready to deliver immediate value and impact.
Tackling Qatar’s Most Complex Waste Challenges
The VacuDry® 12 000 is purpose-built to treat a wide range of challenging waste materials, including drill cuttings, oily sludges and contaminated soils. Every detail of the design has been tailored to maximize efficiency.
Feeding Unit
Batch-wise feeding of material is managed through a trough chain conveyor, capable of handling even high-viscous sludges and pasty solids, with a 2.5 m³ feeding chute protected by nitrogen blanketing for maximum safety.
Vacuum Evaporator
At the heart of the process is our 12 m³ vacuum evaporator, operating at temperatures up to 400 °C and pressure of 50 mbar(abs). With slowly rotating parts, wear and maintenance requirements are minimized, ensuring longer uptime and lower operational costs.
Condensation Unit
Once water and hydrocarbons are evaporated, the vapours are guided to the condensation unit, where water and oil are condensed in a condenser. The condensate is collected in condensate vessels and is then pumped to the client condensate tank. The attached redundant vacuum pumps maintain the vacuum of 50 mbar(abs) inside the process plant.
Discharge Unit
After treatment, clean solids are gently released into a dust-tight 10 m³ discharge bunker, and continuously removed by an indirect cooled screw conveyor, ensuring safe, smooth, and contained handling of the recovered material.
VacuDry®: Where Sustainability Meets Profitability
The VacuDry® 12 000 doesn’t just handle waste — it reclaims value. The system’s condensation unit carefully separates oil, water, hydrocarbons into distinct, recoverable fractions, with automatic discharge to storage vessels. Advanced activated carbon filters ensure emissions are kept to an absolute minimum, offering one of the cleanest recycling processes available today.
This isn’t just clean technology. It’s a beacon of progress, where resource recovery replaces disposal, and profitability aligns with sustainability.
One Decision Can Change Everything
Choosing VacuDry® means redefining what’s possible in hazardous waste management:
- From destruction to recovery, No incineration & no harmful emissions –> reclaiming valuable oil, water, and solids instead of destroying them.
- From high energy consumption to energy efficiency –> utilizing lower operating temperatures and vacuum to reduce energy use.
- From direct fired thermal process to sealed VacuDry® safety –> delivering an emission-free process with the highest safety standards.
- From limitations to flexibility –> one system designed to treat multiple waste streams effectively.
Every Transformation Begins with a Decision
Every meaningful change begins with a single decision. By choosing VacuDry®, our partners in Qatar demonstrated vision, responsibility, and the courage to embrace innovation.
They recognized that hazardous waste management is not just about compliance; it’s about leadership.
It’s about being part of the solution – about making decisions today that will build a cleaner, more resilient environment tomorrow.
Their choice reflects a growing global shift toward technologies and practices that prioritize environmental stewardship without sacrificing operational excellence. In a world where reliability and responsiveness are key, VacuDry® offers a future-proof platform that grows with the needs of its users.
A New Standard for Hazardous Waste Treatment
As the VacuDry® 12 000 makes its journey to Qatar, it carries more than machinery. It carries the work of countless hours, the dedication of a skilled team, and the embodiment of a mission: to treat hazardous waste better, to recover more, and to create lasting positive impact.
It is a beacon for what is possible when innovation, responsibility, and vision come together.
The VacuDry® 12 000 is ready to make a difference – helping Qatar turn some of its most persistent waste challenges into opportunities for progress, growth, and environmental leadership. Because in the end, the true value of innovation lies not just in what we manufacture – but in the future we create with it. We are looking forward to seeing this VacuDry® 12 000 in operation soon.
