Glycol Recovery Unit

Contact us for current availability. Order before fall for winter readiness.

Overview

Glycol Recovery Unit (MGRU 1500) for recovering glycol run-off from de-icing booms operating airside. High-performance suction fan lifts most kinds of liquid from water to glycol through two rear-mounted nozzles, then drains to a dedicated facility for recycling.

Key Features

1.5 m³ (53 ft³) hopper volume for extended working runs between drain cycles

Two hydraulically adjustable suction nozzles mounted on the rear hopper

High-performance suction fan removes liquids ranging from water to glycol

Drainage via dedicated drainage coupling or the rear door after collection

Two service openings, one on each side of the hopper, for cleaning and maintenance access

All exposed parts in high-quality stainless steel for long life against glycol chemistry

Environmentally friendly, recovered glycol is delivered to an on-site facility for recycling

Who This Is For

Airport operators and airside service contractors who already run aircraft de-icing booms and have to meet environmental reporting obligations on glycol run-off. Best for operations that need to demonstrate recovery and recycling, not just dilution-to-drain.

Ideal Applications

Recovering glycol run-off from aircraft de-icing pads

Collecting residual fluid along taxiway and apron edges after de-icing

Airside environmental compliance rounds after weather events

Capturing contaminated water in airport storm-drain buffer zones

Supporting on-site glycol recycling programs

What Sets It Apart

A purpose-built airside recovery tool, not a repurposed street sweeper, two hydraulically adjustable suction nozzles track the pavement and a high-performance fan pulls anything from plain water up to full-strength glycol. The entire 1.5 m³ hopper is stainless steel because glycol eats mild steel, and dual side service openings mean cleaning happens in minutes rather than hours. Recovered fluid drains directly for recycling, which turns an environmental liability into a documented compliance record.

Common Upgrade Path

Displaces vacuum-truck callouts and manual berming operations that airports otherwise use to capture glycol after de-icing events.

When to Consider a Different Model

Not a road-going de-icer, if you need to apply de-icing liquid rather than recover it, use the De-Icing Sprayer.
