Duckweed causes a great deal of extra maintenance work and frustration in horticulture, especially when it ends up in pipes or sticks to plant pots. High time, therefore, that we truly did something about invasive duckweed.
Durable Water Solutions and BÈTA industrie have the solution to problematic duckweed: the duckweed vacuum.
Out of a commitment to tackling the major duckweed problem in the horticulture sector, DWS and BÈTA industrie teamed up and engineered an innovative solution: the duckweed vacuum. Like a powerful vacuum cleaner, this machine sucks up both water and duckweed and cleans the water right away. Equipped with a BÈTA screening machine to purify the water, the machine returns water that can be reused to water plants, or for other purposes.
To prevent duckweed from clogging up your pipes or sticking to your plant pots, with a risk of causing plant infections, the machine carefully vacuums up and filters the water. It virtually completely rids the feed water of duckweed.
The BÈTA screening machine filters the duckweed from the water using a 250 screen deck. The water passes through the screen plate and is pumped back clean. Duckweed and other particles larger than 0.25 millimetres are trapped on the screen plate and disposed of.
The advantages of our duckweed vacuum:
- No more blocked pipes
- Higher-quality plants (duckweed-free)
- Automated system
- The BÈTA screening machine is self-cleaning
- Energy-efficient and low-maintenance
No more invasive duckweed ever again!
