The export of a two row containerized bitumen decanter offers multiple opportunities to our customer in Democratic Republic of Congo. It allows customer to have immense freedom in easing the bitumen melting process which is stored in the bitumen barrels. Designed with precision, this bitumen drum decanter is our answer to worry free bitumen melting process. The process is simple and easy. It is a very straight forward approach which is also a very reliable method for bitumen melting.
Placed alongside our 60-90 tph drum mix asphalt plant, this machine will be setup and used to melt the liquid bitumen and transfer it to the bitumen tanks. This will make the road construction process easy and simple as the asphalt plant will be running continuously. The melting capacity of this bitumen decanter is 2 to 2.5 tons per hour. The ex-factory loading photos of the machine can be seen here.
Introduction to the 2-row containerized bitumen decanter
Bitumen decanters play important role in the road construction industry. They are now an integral part of an asphalt plant. In this case it will be stationed next to a 60-90 tph asphalt drum mixer and satisfy its bitumen melting requirement. It is capable of enriching the melting process with higher efficiency, easy of transportation. All this is achieved with minimal energy consumption.
It is also important to note that this is a containerised design which means that it can lower the transportation costs. It is a compact unit, can be picked up and taken anywhere required and made to run and set up real quick. Even if the project sites are remote, this can be made to setup and run in such locations. The dual row design will ensure that eighteen (18) number of drums can be put inside the melting chamber at a single point of time.
Features of containerized bitumen decanters
The equipment features heavy duty components combined with a proven design suitable for efficient melting process. Atlas bitumen decanters are available in different capacities. This containerised bitumen decanter is for streamlining the bitumen melting process as it fulfils the bitumen requirements of an asphalt plant stationed nearby. Some of the important advantages are as:
Compact and modular design: One of the key highlight has to be this. It can be fitted into a 40 HC container and it is so easy and economical to transport. The machine is also easy to transport locally. The installation process is also quick. So relocation can also be simple and hassle free.
High melting efficiency: This machine is offered with a three pass thermic oil heater. It ensures uniform melting of bitumen from the pipelines that are surrounding all the bitumen barrels.
Energy saving: The machine is fully insulated from all the sides. The insulation as well as closed door design allows maximum heat trap inside the heating chamber. This helps to lower the fuel and operating cost.
Easy operation: The easy to use design featured here allows ample options. The thermic oil temperature can be maintained thus a uniform temperature can be maintained inside the chamber. The power pack is easy to use which allows for pushing the barrels inside the heating chamber.
