 I thought that was the whole point of a vacuum…to collect crap so you can empty and dispose of it.
Do you use yours differently?

as you may or maybe not know whilst cleaning block paving and recovering you will collect a lot of silt, how do you empty this silt from you vacuum ?

It has a slurry pump built into it….that will handle certain sized solids.
That or fill individual barrels (lightweight plastic) http://www.bigbrute.co.uk/accessories/4222/interceptor-lid-(205ltr-open-drum).htm
I do not think i have every removed more than 200litres of slurry from a job anyway. Usually only a few bags or buckets .
The water can be separated and pumped into a foul water drain or verge. Or even filtered and used again in the pressure washer.

I've got a Omni-vac that has a built in pump to empty it, never used the pump as I only use it for gutters. Remember the guy saying it can only pump out or vac in, due to power supply. Whether this is something that could be sorted, I don't know as I've never looked into it.

It does look interesting it's just the shear size which makes it impractical for myself anyway

It would need its own trailer…as a recycling  unit.  It in itself is not overly big ,but you would then need another drum to use as a filter cage.
I thought about getting some Geotextile "bags" made .Hang these inside the drum and re-fed the water from the bottom back up to the pressure washer.
