Lintec’s warm mix asphalt system offers savings on energy consumption and emissions

1177 Lintec is showing its new Lintec Ecological Processing 95 patented warm asphalt mix system for the first time at Bauma. LEP 95 has a working temperature range of 95 to 100 degrees Celsius, which is significantly lower than conventional systems, thereby saving on energy consumption and emissions.

At bauma 2016, the system is integrated with the company's CSD 3000 plant, which can produce both hot and warm mix asphalt depending on demand at the job site. The system produces a smooth and stable foam for optimum mixing results at low temperatures. The lower temperature capability results in 40% energy savings, as well as 35% savings on both CO2 and bitumen emissions.

The LEP 95 system can be retrofitted to existing Lintec plants or those of other manufacturers. Lintec is an export-oriented company, focusing on markets such as the Middle East, Russia and Brazil where the mobility of its systems are an advantage.

    An ambitious objective has led to significant steps in the reuse of PA (porous asphalt). While the market incidentally produces PA with a maximum of 30% of recovered raw materials, BAM has introduced its own innovations, enabling more than 90% of raw materials to be reused. And this year, subsidies from the European Commission will enable the LE2AP demonstration project to be constructed: one kilometre of sustainable PA. Large-scale production is also being developed.

    Modern asphalt plants are a far cry from the early models, and are capable of producing a wide variety of mixes at the touch of a button. Patrick Smith reports Cutting-edge software-based control technology makes today's asphalt mixing plants simple and efficient to operate. The tightening of clean air regulations is reducing the emissions from the plants, and the current focus is on the goal of raising the processed portion of reclaimed asphalt (RA) towards 100%, says Ammann Group, which has been involved
