Water blasting doesn’t just benefit pipelines; it serves society. Here’s how!
Water blasting is a technology that goes beyond your pressure washer for your home siding. It can be an industrial-scale method of cleaning and renewing equipment of all kinds, from restaurant grease traps to power plant heat exchangers. Jet Blast Inc. uses advanced water blasting technology to restore stormwater management systems, sewer systems, confined spaces, and much more. Here’s a quick look at how water blasting isn’t just effective; it benefits society and the environment on the whole.
No Toxic Fumes
Water blasting uses one material to scour surfaces: water. This natural substance that we need for life is all it takes to clean metal, concrete, and other surfaces. Dry ice blasting and other cleaning methods can release dangerous gases into the atmosphere, necessitating strict ventilation standards, but pressurized water doesn’t come with those dangers.
No Increased Dust
Abrasive blasting can be appropriate for some jobs to create an even rougher surface, but water blasting or wet abrasive blasting offers the benefit of limiting dust created by the cleaning job. Abrasive blasting alone can produce tons of hazardous dust that can cause serious health effects. It is even worse if that dust travels across local areas. Water blasting reduces dust in the atmosphere, trapping it with the wastewater.
Sustainable Use of Water
Water blasting might not seem like a great idea in a drought, but the technology uses as little water as possible for the most successful effect. A hydrovac truck will also collect and filter its wastewater. The filtered water can then drain into a local storm drain or another appropriate depository. No water goes to waste in industrial water blasting.
Keeps Large-Scale Equipment Serviceable
The industries that industrial water blasting serves are those that serve large communities. Power plants provide electricity and Internet access, and concrete mixer trucks make public transportation possible. A water blasting service helps keep the machines that serve society clean and serviceable.
Flood Prevention and Public Health
Cleaning sewer and stormwater runoff systems from end to end is one of Jet Blast Inc.’s specialties. Keeping these systems clean helps prevent the local flooding of stormwater management systems and widespread diseases coming from sewer systems.
