6791 Ammann says that its QuickBatch plant has been transport-optimised to make it more mobile and versatile. The new QuickBatch plant is designed for easy, cost-effective transportation and installation. The plant fits into a series of standard shipping containers, making it easy to move from one site to another. In conventional layout it can be carried in nine containers, though additional features may require more units. Typical additions include special equipment for handling RAP and using this in asphalt production. However the firm says that this system also offers customers the benefits of more conventional stationary facilities, such as a high-production capacity. Key core components, including dryer/filter units and mixing tower modules are all fitted inside standard transport containers.

    Günter Papenburg has developed a cooling feature for asphalt plants that it says shortens the time normally needed for a plant’s coal dust-fuelled burners to reach operating temperatures. The cooling technology has been licenced from LOESCHE, a German producer of coal milling systems. GP managing director Carsten Weiss claimed that the firm’s burners consume more of the fuel than rival types, which only burn 90% of the coal dust. “We get an asphalt temperature of 170°C with low emissions and high efficiency
