Clean roads for the environment
6/18/2024
Road Sweepers are widely used for keeping roads, runways and other accesses clean and for suppressing dust. It is good for the environment, limiting dangerous air pollution and improving the supply of clean water.
The goal of simple debris removal did not change until the 1970s, when policymakers began to reflect concern for water quality. As older street sweepers were only effective in removing large particles of road debris, small particles of debris remained behind in large quantities. The remaining debris was not seen as an aesthetic issue because rain would wash them away.
Today, small particles are known to carry a substantial portion of the stormwater pollutant load. Street sweeping can be an effective measure in reducing pollutants in stormwater runoff. Many street sweepers produced today are PM10 and PM2.5 certified, meaning that they can collect and hold particulate matter sized less than 10 μm and even down to 2.5 μm.
Demanding hydraulics
Road Sweepers needs to be durable, reliable and effective. This makes high demands on the hydraulic components, for which Sunfab’s renowned quality and high-performance hydraulic pumps and motors are the perfect match.
