The Backbone of Marine Hygiene – Vacuum Waste Systems
In modern maritime operations, hygiene, efficiency, and environmental compliance are essential—whether on a passenger vessel or a commercial ship. Traditional wastewater management systems often fall short of today’s standards. This is where sewage vacuum systems come into play, offering compact designs, low water usage, and high operational efficiency. In this article, we’ll explore the leading vacuum system providers EVAC and JETS, and examine how vacuum technology benefits the maritime sector.
What Is a Sewage Vacuum System?
Sewage vacuum systems are designed to transport waste from toilets to a central tank using powerful negative pressure, rather than relying on gravity and water flow. This results in:
Significant reduction in water consumption
Minimized risk of pipe blockages
Space-saving installations
EVAC Vacuum Systems
EVAC is a globally recognized brand, offering advanced and sustainable vacuum toilet systems for a wide range of vessels—from cruise liners to industrial ships. The brand is known for its energy-efficient, modular, and low-maintenance solutions.
Key benefits include:
Ultra-low water consumption (as low as 0.5 liters per flush)
Quiet operation with advanced noise insulation
Smart control panels for energy optimization
Full compliance with IMO and MARPOL standards
JETS Vacuum Systems
JETS, based in Norway, is a long-standing provider of reliable vacuum systems designed for marine environments. Known for compact designs and service-friendly components, JETS systems are widely used in small to mid-size marine applications.
