Marini’s sophisticated EvoDryer offers a quality mix

Marini’s efficient EvoDryer system is said to offer high efficiency and high quality for asphalt batching applications. The drum is now longer and the burner has been redesigned to ensure performance is maximised.

A key feature of the reconfigured design is with the reduction of blue smoke from the pugmill and discharge areas. This is now collected and filtered to minimise emissions.

Meanwhile, the air out of the drum is also filtered to reduce emissions. And the hot air is also recirculated into the drum, boosting efficiency and reducing fuel consumption. Recirculating the air also reduces the emissions from the plant, a major boost for environmental performance.

    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

    Increasing asphalt plant sophistication will boost the capabilities for the use of recycled materials - Mike Woof writes Major innovation is being seen in the asphalt plant sector with many of the major manufacturers developing sophisticated new plants. The increased use of recycled materials and reduced fumes emissions are all important issues for the segment. In the US for example, the potential for recycled asphalt has been well identified. It is now one of the most frequently recycled industrial materia
