Resource Recovery Wet/Dry Central Vaccum Systems

Recoverable resources in manufacturing and material processing may include excess or fugitive materials from subtractive or additive manufacturing. Reasons for resource recovery include environmental concerns, quality, value, maintenance reduction, hygiene, safety, and production efficiency.

Air Dynamics offers engineering solutions for resource recovery using vacuum aspiration. However, vacuum aspiration alone often fails, as seen with many unused commercial and industrial vacuums.

A notable success was at a GE incandescent lightbulb plant, where powdered tungsten accumulated on the floor. The site's centralized vacuum system and a super sucker truck failed to recover the material. Initially skeptical, GE later praised Air Dynamics for efficiently removing over eighty 55-gallon drums of tungsten.

Industrial facilities need effective vacuum systems to recover materials, reduce waste, and ensure safety compliance. Air Dynamics’ dry and wet vacuum systems provide powerful, efficient solutions for material recovery in industries like manufacturing, chemical processing, food production, and power generation.

Resource Recovery Wet/Dry Central Vacuum Systems

Industrial facilities require efficient, powerful three-phase vacuum cleaning systems to recover materials, reduce waste, and maintain 5S clean compliance and NFPA combustible dust safety guidelines. Air Dynamics’ wet and dry resource recovery vacuum systems provide a powerful, customizable solution for wet and dry applications.

We offer superior material handling heavy-duty all welded 14 ga steel construction and engineer to order integration for Navisworks, Revit and BIM designs. Our tailored industrial vacuum solutions manage solids, liquids, powders, and particulates for any industry

Customized Industrial Recovery Vacuum Systems for Any Operation

Air Dynamics engineers can design and install customized resource recovery vacuum systems for up to 100 plus operators at the same time. Our standard central vacuum designs support wet/dry provide vacuum levels up to 16" Hg with drum, FIBC, roll, forward hopper discharge storage options. 

Benefits of Air Dynamics Resource Recovery Central Vacuum Systems

Recovering materials reduces waste, lowers operational costs, and improves plant safety. We engineer resource recovery wet central vacuum systems to meet industry safety standards, including Threshold Limit Values established by OSHA, NIOSH, MSHA or the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists.

Using our recommended solutions, you can easily separate solids, powders, and liquids into appropriate containers. Our vacuums empty into bins, hoppers, bulk bags, and drums. Secondary filtration where equipment is exhausted indoors removes fine dust particles, and powders to improve indoor air quality and plant safety. 

Our Lean Six Sigma certifications and safety-focused association memberships help us maintain state-of-the-art safety practices. Our 100 percent in-house design and manufacturing facility supports your specific requirements for Made-In-USA to Made in America or all Made in America. Contact us to with your requirements. 

Our proprietary, 14-point major design elements ensure repeatability from a quality standpoint. From 2D sketch to 3D modeling and fabrication, IFC drawings are executed for each client project, all under one roof. 

If integration support for your facility is required, we utilize Navisworks, Revit, Visio, Autodesk Inventor, and 3D-CAD. 

In-house BIM integration allows you to see the finished design in your plant before releasing IFC drawings. 

Recovery Vacuum Systems Applications

Designed to order Air Dynamics equipment is utilized in critical manufacturing operations where 24/7 operations tolerate zero downtime including:

  • Aerospace Manufacturing: High-performance foreign object removal systems remove dust, debris, rivets, Cleco tools, aluminum shavings and drilling contaminants from aircraft production areas. We design-to-order solutions to address the unique demands of the aerospace industry.
  • Food Manufacturing and Processing: Resource recovery in food ingredient systems requires exceptional care to meet industry standards. We design equipment to ensure safe operation and clean design in food manufacturing and processing. 
  • Hazardous Materials Recovery: Our resource recovery dry central vacuum systems can safely extract potentially hazardous materials, including powdered metals, powdered chemicals, glass, silica, metal turnings, steel shot, blast media and granular. 
  • Industrial Manufacturing Cleanup: Safely remove industrial waste and debris from wet and dry manufacturing processes or environments with our portable or centralized resource recovery vacuum systems.

Our central vacuum systems for recovery meet the requirements of National Fire Protection Associations latest guidelines for safe handling of combustible dusts. This is crucial in textile, metal processing, wood and pulp, rubber, food, and plastic manufacturing plants. Combustible dust types consist of agricultural products and dusts, carbonaceous, metals, plastics, chemical, organics identified in OSHA’s combustible dust poster.

Testimonials Although they laughed, that didn’t faze us – we did our research and we had confidence in Air Dynamics’ application engineer we worked with.

"We’re a resource recovery company. We selected two PLĒCO 30 HP portable vacuum systems configured for bulk pickup. Our customer just laughed at us when the Air Dynamics PLĒCO vacuums showed up. They actually said, ‘they‘d never work!’ Although they laughed, that didn’t faze us – we did our research and we had confidence in Air Dynamics’ application engineer we worked with. The plant had a $100,000 central vacuum system; they even tried a “super sucker” with no decent results. The company gave up trying to recover the powdered tungsten themselves. We had their plant cleaned up in record time, even though the powdered tungsten weighed 1,150 pounds per cubic foot!"

- M. Hakli – resource recovery firm
Testimonials

"We love the vacuum and use it just about every day in our normal everyday routine. It has been a major help with maintaining clean floors and machines. We have also used it to unplug clogged pneumatic conveying lines where compressed air did not effectively work. In the past, we used brooms and compressed air to clean which caused the dust to float in the air, moving from surface to surface. The PLECO vacuum eliminates floating dust and its suction is powerful enough to get the fine dust out of the cracks and off the floor quickly. I like that it’s portable to move it where you need it."

Testimonials

"Daniel Lehman was so much more knowledgeable than the competition- probably more knowledgeable than anyone in the country, about industrial vacuums."

- C. Milum, Textile Company
Testimonials We recommend Air Dynamics!

"Working with Air Dynamics was an incredibly enjoyable experience for our engineering firm. They brought expertise to the table that we did not necessarily have in-house, and they conveyed it in a way that was easy for us, our shareholders, and our executives to understand. We would recommend Air Dynamics for anyone looking for a pneumatic or material handling conveying solutions."

- L. Samuelson, Engineer, power company
Testimonials

"The Desert Wind is the best technology we have found for testing and calibration laboratories. We use it within the aerospace and military sectors to assist the creation of parts development and provide part of the certification needed."

- Stephane Carpentier, Dir. Innovation & Development, CTA
Testimonials

"We purchased the PLĒCO 8.5 HP vacuum for our powdered colors business. We chose this substantially built vacuum over a European import that didn’t offer what this American made system did. We purchased a second unit because the first system performed excellent even after filling the canister again and again without affecting the pressure drop across the filters at all.
