What Is Vacuum Loading?
Vacuum loading is the process of safely extracting, transporting, and disposing of various forms of waste materials. It is a non-destructive technique that is widely used in the industrial and commercial industries to clear, clean, or provide access to underground utilities or to make room for construction projects.
Technicians use what’s known as a vacuum truck or vacuum loader to carefully and efficiently suck away waste and debris. These heavy-duty trucks are extremely effective and versatile, often using high-pressure water to remove liquids, sludge, and solids from delicate assets and infrastructure.
Is It Beneficial?
Vacuum excavation achieves a range of industrial and commercial objectives. From unearthing underground assets to clearing blocked pipelines, this multipurpose NDD method offers several advantages. Here’s how it can benefit your next project.
Enhanced Safety
Hydro vacuum excavation reduces the risk of damaging delicate underground utilities, such as gas and telecommunication lines. It can also safely remove and contain contaminants, protecting workers from airborne particulates.
Versatile
Vacuum excavation rigs operate in a diverse range of environments and conditions, accessing hard-to-reach areas or confined spaces.
Precise
Unlike traditional excavation methods, vacuum excavation allows for meticulous detail, promoting precision and minimising impact areas.
Reduced Surface Damage
Vacuum excavation is less intrusive than its mechanical counterparts, preserving the integrity of the surrounding surface area and infrastructure.
Efficient
This method is extremely efficient, significantly reducing digging time and labour. Where traditional excavation practices can take hours to complete, vacuum excavation can achieve the same result in minutes, streamlining projects to a more timely completion.
Cost Effective
As hydro vacuuming is safer and requires less labour, it is also a more cost-effective solution. Safe excavation means you can protect underground assets from damage, preventing costly repairs and replacements, while fewer onsite workers save on labour costs.
