- W759912059 abstract "This articles reviews how modifications at a Rocky Mountain asphalt plant increased output by 300% to 400%. After 2 decades of wear and tear, the production rate of the plant's 5-ft drum plant was down around 20 tons per hour (tph). The plant exhibited several problems that contributed to the low production. The drum flighting was worn out, the burner safeties and main controls were inoperative, the main fan was undersize for the altitude and worn out, and the wet scrubber was very inefficient. Additionally, the hot oil heater controls were archaic at best, and the asphalt ratio system had died long ago. The consultant installed a fan and built an oversized knock-out box to help with the increased fines carry-out. He also installed an automatic damper control to optimize air flow through the drum. He installed a new Hauck SJO 200 Star Jet burner and new controls and converted to diesel since it is a safer fuel in this case. To optimize the fuel consumption, a set of high-efficiency flights were installed and the drum was converted from a bottom discharge to a side discharge configuration. The contractor installed a set of heavy-duty rakes at the discharge end of the drum. He then moved the hot-mix belt to the side and built a 6,000-lb holding hopper on the end so that it had a minute or two to get trucks in position on the scales. Finally, the asphalt ratio system was upgraded and the hot oil control system was overhauled, updating it to automated controls. The plant now consistently runs at 80-100 tph." @default.
