Landa Water Cleaning Systems has improved its largest, natural gas-heated HBG wastewater evaporator.

The HBG wastewater evaporator, which can be adapted for liquid propane, features a new combustion chamber design that is 60% larger, which results in a more energy-efficient burn. Using high-density refractory ceramic, the combustion box requires 400,000 Btu/hour to evaporate up to 30 gallons per hour versus 500,000-550,000 Btu/hour in traditional systems.

This can reduce operating costs to pennies per gallon, depending on local fuel costs.

The HBG evaporator also is nearly 40% longer, with an extra 20 gallons of tank capacity, and it has a new double-lid design for easier access to the tank.
