15 March 2024Cement plant
PROBLEM:
Significant material loss in this area of the conveyor. This part is visible to the public and is located right next to a popular public beach. Formation of a large dust cloud during operation.
Product conveyed by the conveyor: cement and clinker
Grain size: 40mm
Density: 1.5T/m³
Product temperature : 150°C
Maximum conveyor throughput: 650T/H.
SOLUTION:
15 meters of LIFTUBH900 with a wide guideway from the main chute to the third chute, which is a filter return.
The customer installed the LIFTUBE® on this critical part of the conveyor in order to drastically reduce cement loss and consequently cleaning time. The aim was also to make this area, which is just a few dozen meters from a busy beach, clean.
RESULT:
- Environment: Reduction of dust emissions between loading and unloading points and compliance with ISO 14001.
Quality: Full protection of the material. No product pollution.
Total safety: Protection of re-entry points.
