Tecpro Australia E46 Floating Evaporator

The E46 Floating Evaporator is designed to increase the natural evaporation rate by at least 10–12 times the speed of nature. It includes the option of a weather station so operation can be automated — depending on environmental conditions.

The evaporator works by pumping water through specially designed and patented nozzles that use the Venturi Principle to draw air into the water stream to produce water droplets, which evaporate more readily. The nozzles’ unique design minimises drift of contaminated water droplets outside the perimeter of the pond.

The evaporator has four HDPE UV stabilised pontoons and a stainless steel lifting frame. Each nozzle is also made from HDPE to cope with hazardous ambient and corrosive liquids.

Commonly used in desalination plants, mining operations and decontamination applications, the unit is modular so multiple units can be used in the same pond to achieve rapid evaporation.
