The Lanes Group has purchased a custom-built DISAB Centurion High Performance Vacuum unit.

The unit vacuums at a super fast 8500 ft2 per minute, compared with the 800 cfm operation of standard jet vac tankers.

The 'monster machine' can pull 10 tonnes of material through its hose system in just 10 minutes.

Lanes bought the unit to manage an existing contract for lime powder removal at one of Europe's largest steel producers.

"Because it is capable of removing a huge variety of waste streams, from powders, ash and granular materials to sludges, aggregates and ore, the Centurion is suitable for a whole range of industries like steel, cement, power, heating, paper and pulp - as well as wastewater treatment plants, pumping stations and pretty much any industrial tanks," says Ian Sullivan, manager of Lanes' north east depot.The unit is equally effective for both wet and dry materials.
