Car wash systems use various methods to treat water and dose the necessary products to achieve an effective and safe wash. Here is an overview:
Water treatment
- Filtration: Removes solid particles and impurities from the water
- Oil separation: Uses coalescing filters to separate oils and hydrocarbons
- Biological treatment: Uses bacteria to break down organic substances and detergents
- Disinfection: Methods such as ozonation and UV treatment eliminate bacteria and viruses
Dosed products
- Pre-wash: Removes initial dirt and dust
- Detergents: Specific detergents for bodywork and interiors
- Car shampoo: Used for washing the bodywork
- Oil film removal: Removes residual oils and greases
- Protection and polishing (wax): Applied to protect the paint and give shine
These systems not only ensure an effective wash, but also contribute to the protection of the environment through recycling and wastewater treatment.
