Vanmark Water Reclamation System: Significantly reduce water use for potato peeling through recirculation

The Water Reclamation System recirculates process water from Vanmark’s abrasive peelers – reducing water usage up to 90%.

The skid-mounted system removes peel waste from process water, collecting it to be sold, and recirculates filtered water back into the peeler in a closed loop.

It can integrate with and support up to three machines, with each now operating on less than 1.5 GPM (5.7 l/min) of fresh water input.

  • Clean and recirculate peeler water in closed loop to reduce usage up to 90%
  • Integrate with and support up to three Peeler/ Scrubber/Washer machines
  • Skid-mounted for easy installation and start-up
  • Flow managed through meters at each machine and progressive overflow design for self-balance
