    ● Supporting raw water tank, transition buffer tank, clean water reuse tank & pipeline framework

    Complete Working Flow & Process Description

    Step 1: Raw Water Collection & Pre-Filtration

    Highly alkaline wastewater containing massive ultra-fine desert silt flows from the concrete recovery line into the raw water tank. Large flocs and coarse solids are pre-intercepted; soluble silt-laden wastewater is pumped to the reaction module via the plunger feed pump.

    Step 2: CO₂ Atomization & Two-Stage Neutralization

    Liquid CO₂ is vaporized into gaseous CO₂, pressure-regulated and injected into the sealed two-stage reactor. Alkaline wastewater is atomized inside the tower and fully mixed with CO₂ gas: High-alkali calcium hydroxide from cement & desert sand reacts to form insoluble calcium carbonate silt, lowering pH steadily. Real-time PH probes feed signals back to the PLC to auto-adjust CO₂ gas flow for precise pH stabilization.

    Step 3: Buffer Sedimentation & Slurry Separation

    Neutralized water overflows into the transition tank; precipitated carbonate-sand slurry sinks to the tank bottom. Periodically, concentrated slurry is pumped into the solid-liquid filter press unit. Filter cake (mixed sand & carbonate sludge) is dewatered for solid waste disposal; filtrate flows back to the raw water tank for reprocessing.

    Step 4: Final Polishing & Clean Water Reuse

    Supernatant clarified water from the transition tank flows into the clean water pool. Treated water meets concrete mixing reuse standards, pumped back to mixer truck washing, aggregate washing, and batching production lines to realize 100% water closed-loop circulation.

    Step 5: Full Automatic Interlock Control

    Radar level gauges monitor liquid levels across all pools; PH transmitters, gas pressure sensors, pump running signals interlock with the PLC system to auto-adjust pump speed, CO₂ flow, and slurry discharge cycles. Manual/automatic dual operation modes are available, with remote mobile APP monitoring and fault alarm.

    Core Technical Advantages

    FAQ

    Q1: What supporting equipment can this wastewater system work with?

    A: This carbon neutrality wastewater system is independently developed by SINOU, which is perfectly matched with our full series of concrete recycling equipment, including rotary concrete reclaimer, vibratory concrete reclaimer and feeding chutes. It forms a complete closed-loop treatment line for residual concrete and washing wastewater of concrete batching plants. The whole set of equipment adopts unified PLC central control, realizing synchronous linkage operation and easy overall management.

    Q2: What is the applicable treatment capacity of the system? Can it meet the requirements of large mixing plants?

    A: Our standard wastewater system has a processing capacity ranging from 30 m³/h to 60 m³/h, which fully satisfies the water treatment demand of large concrete batching plants with multiple production lines. We also support customized flow design according to actual daily wastewater output to match different plant scales.

    Q3: What is the applicable power supply standard of the equipment?

    A: The system is designed for 3-phase, 380V, 60Hz power supply, which is completely compatible with the synchronous generator power supply commonly used in Saudi Arabia and other Gulf regions. The electrical components have been optimized for unstable voltage of generator sets to ensure stable operation.

    Q4: How does the system treat fine particles below 100μm in desert sand?

    A: We adopt a combined process of multi-stage filtration, coagulation and gravity sedimentation. Firstly, multi-layer precision filter screens intercept most fine sand; then stirring equipment mixes wastewater with coagulant to gather scattered micro-particles into large flocs.

    After natural sedimentation in the horizontal sedimentation tank, the residual tiny particles are trapped by the front-end filter of the pump. Finally, all sludge containing fine sand is transported to the filter press for deep dewatering, realizing full disposal of particles below 100μm without leakage.

    Q5: Why does the solution not adopt hydrocyclone and inclined tube sedimentation tank?

    A: Combined with the actual working conditions of desert fine sand and SINOU’s mature technical route, we cancel hydrocyclone and inclined tube structures. The horizontal sedimentation tank with large volume is equipped with full-time stirring devices, which extends the hydraulic retention time and ensures sufficient settlement of ultra-fine sand.

    This design simplifies the equipment structure, reduces failure points and daily maintenance workload, and is more suitable for long-term continuous operation in harsh desert environments.

    Q6: What measures are taken to prevent sediment accumulation inside tanks and pools?

    A: We take multiple anti-sediment measures. All water tanks adopt sloped cone-bottom structure without dead corners, and the inner wall is coated with anti-stick and wear-resistant coating. Every tank is equipped with dedicated stirring devices to keep the water body flowing dynamically all the time.

    Meanwhile, the system is fitted with liquid mud level monitors and automatic mud discharge valves, which regularly discharge sludge to the filter press. It fundamentally avoids long-term deposition and compaction of sediment.

    Q7: How to solve the blockage problem of water pumps caused by a large amount of fine sand?

    A: There are multiple protection measures for pump anti-clogging. First, multi-stage filters are installed at the pump inlet to block sundries and agglomerated mud.

    Second, we use SINOU’s self-developed hydraulic ceramic plunger pump with large flow passages and excellent anti-abrasion performance, which is not easy to be stuck by fine particles.

    In addition, the stirring device will run in advance before the pump starts to stir up the bottom sediment, preventing instantaneous mud suction and blockage. The system also has overload and stall protection to stop the machine automatically in case of abnormal conditions.

    Q8: Will fine sand cause serious wear to pipeline and equipment?

    A: All flow-passing parts in contact with sewage and fine sand are made of high wear-resistant materials. The inner wall of pipelines and tanks is treated with anti-abrasion coating.

    Combined with the pre-filtering process, the content of free fine sand in the water is greatly reduced, which effectively lowers the wear rate of the whole system and extends the service life.

    Q9: Is it necessary to equip stirring systems for the whole set of equipment? What are their functions?

    A: Stirring systems are standard configurations for all tanks and pools. The stirrers in the water collection tank and concentration tank prevent fine sand from settling and compacting; the stirrers in the reaction tank ensure the full mixing of carbon dioxide, coagulant and wastewater, so as to guarantee the neutralization and flocculation effect.

    All stirring devices are interlocked with pumps and mud discharge valves to realize fully automatic operation.

    Q10: Why choose filter press for sludge treatment? What are the advantages?

    A: The filter press is the core equipment for terminal sludge disposal. It can squeeze high-concentration mud containing ultra-fine sand into dry mud cakes, realizing thorough solid-liquid separation. The filtrate flows back to the front-end pool for recycling, achieving zero sewage discharge.

    The fully automatic filter press supports unattended operation, with large sludge processing capacity and stable performance, which is the optimal choice for continuous production of mixing plants.

    Q11: What technology is used for wastewater pH neutralization? Is there secondary pollution?

    A: This system adopts carbon dioxide neutralization technology, which is our core carbon neutrality solution. The alkaline substances in cement wastewater react with CO₂ to generate water and harmless carbonate sediment.

    No caustic soda and other chemical agents are added during the whole process, so there is no secondary pollution, which meets local environmental protection standards in the Gulf region.

    Q12: What is the pH range of the recycled water? Can it be reused for concrete production?

  • Spray Column
    Spray Column

    SINOU spray column, also known as empty tower spray scrubber, abandons the traditional internal filler layout and adopts hollow tower body + multi-layer swirling atomizing nozzle innovative structure. This gas purification tower is independently developed to solve cement dust, alkaline flue gas blockage troubles generated during the CO₂ neutralization reaction of concrete batching plant wastewater.

    When the waste gas containing fine desert sand dust enters the tower, circulating neutralization liquid forms dense mist to absorb alkaline components and trap dust particles. The purified gas reaches emission standards, while the waste liquid flows back to the water treatment station for cyclic reuse.

    The whole set can form a complete gas-water closed-loop treatment system when matched with HDPE Slurry Pipe, Chamber Filter Press and Heavy Duty Mixer Truck Washing Machine.

    Counter-Current Gas-Liquid Absorption Operation Principle

    Many clients wonder how the spray column achieves high purification efficiency without internal fillers, its core counter-current process has 6 continuous operation steps:

    (1) Dust-containing alkaline flue gas enters from the tangential air inlet at the tower bottom, and the rotating air flow initially separates large cement particles to reduce nozzle clogging risk

    (2) The gas flows upward along the hollow tower cavity without filler obstruction, with extremely low wind resistance loss

    (3) Multi-layer swirl atomizing nozzles at the upper part of the tower spray neutralizing liquid downwards to form countless tiny liquid droplets

    (4) Upward flue gas and downward mist fully collide and contact, alkaline substances chemically react with neutral liquid, and fine dust is wrapped and captured by droplets

    (5) The purified clean gas passes through a folded plate mist eliminator at the tower top to intercept entrained water mist before being discharged

    (6) The mixed waste liquid carrying dust flows into the bottom liquid storage tank, and the circulation pump sends it back to the Carbon Neutrality Waste Water System through HDPE Slurry Pipe for sedimentation and re-spraying The PLC system links the PH detector to automatically adjust the spray liquid supply volume according to flue gas alkalinity, requiring no manual real-time adjustment.

    Modular Split Tower Internal Component Layout

    All parts of SINOU spray column adopt split flange connection design, convenient for sea freight transportation and on-site assembly; all wetted components are anti-corrosion treated to adapt long-term alkaline dust working conditions:

    (1) Main Split Tower Body: Optional PP, FRP or 304 stainless steel materials, segmented flange splicing to reduce single-piece transportation volume

    (2) Tangential Dust Separation Air Inlet: Spiral air intake structure to pre-settle large cement slag and avoid direct impact on nozzles

    (3) Multi-layer Swirl Atomization Nozzle Group: Large-diameter flow channel design, not easy to be blocked by 100μm desert fine sand

    (4) V-type Folded Plate Mist Eliminator: Installed at the tower outlet to eliminate liquid mist entrainment and prevent secondary water mist emission

About sewage treatment in mixing plants

Regarding the carbon neutrality technology for mixing plant wastewater treatment, I conducted an investigation in Australia in 2008 based on the actual situation of domestic mixing plants; The domestic reuse of these deactivated wastewater seriously affects the stability and reliability of concrete products. Meanwhile, sewage causes damage to groundwater resources and the environment. Moreover, high concentration alkaline wastewater poses a series of problems such as severe corrosion and blockage to the production equipment of the mixing plant.
