Mining equipment operates extensively under harsh conditions, bearing heavy rock, sand and other natural resource loads. Constant use and exposure to these elements means the equipment accumulates dirt quickly. Vehicles must be cleaned regularly to remove hard grime from areas that could impact their performance.
Mine equipment wash racks by ESD Waste2Water, Inc. are the solution to removing stubborn dirt and grime and recycling the water used to clean the mining equipment.

The Need for Mining Truck Wash Systems
Heavy-duty mining equipment, such as crushers, loaders, drill rigs, dozers and haul trucks, is used in various applications in the mining industry. Dirt and grime accumulate on the machinery, creating a thick, muddy layer that dries and becomes crusty during operation.
When excess dirt accumulates on mining equipment, contaminants may enter and clog small parts, causing damage and reducing performance. With extensive wear and tear, equipment may eventually malfunction. Mining vehicle washing helps remove contaminant buildup to prolong the vehicles’ life span and maximize operational efficiency.
Wash racks are critical in removing dirt and serve a dual purpose. Besides cleaning, they reclaim the water used to wash the machinery.
About Our ESD Wash Racks
ESD Waste2Water provides effective wastewater management systems across numerous industries, including golf and turf, oil and gas, heavy equipment and construction. Our industrial-strength wash racks include closed-loop and portable models.
Closed-Loop Wash Racks
Highly durable and effective, closed-loop wash racks use high-pressure systems to clean vehicles and heavy-duty equipment. Dirty water and muck run into the rack’s drain, where they separate. Contaminants such as grease and oil in the water are biologically treated and refined, after which the cleaned water is looped into the system for reuse.
Portable Wash Racks
Due to their mobility, these wash racks are convenient and ideal for applications with high vehicle and equipment volumes. They can be set up near mines for easy accessibility during routine cleans.
The washing equipment is housed in a portable ISO container called a Containment Island. It also uses a closed-loop water waste management system. ESD’s portable wash racks are customizable with air conditioning, heating and various wash pad settings and can include ramps and walls for equipment and vehicles to pass through.
Our Above Ground CI Pads are available in sizes of 8’x13′-2″, 8’x17′-2″, 8’x21′-2″, and 8’x25′-2″ with material handling dual path auger system option that accommodates most heavy equipment and vehicle washing needs. They allow portable wash racks to be installed anywhere. For custom size inquiries, call us today.
