Bitumen melter equipment plays an important role in highway construction, but traditional heating methods have problems such as high energy consumption and low efficiency. This article introduces a new type of bitumen melting plant, which uses electric heating technology and has the advantages of energy saving, environmental protection and environmental protection. The working principle of this equipment is to heat the bitumen through the heat generated by the resistance wire, and then automatically adjust the temperature and flow rate through the control system to achieve the best melting effect.
[1]. Combination of energy, energy conservation and environmental protection
Traditional bitumen melting equipment mainly relies on coal or oil for heating, which not only consumes a lot of energy, but also emits a large amount of harmful substances, causing serious pollution to the environment. The new bitumen melting plant uses electric heating technology, which has the following advantages:
1. Energy saving: Electric heating technology is more energy-saving than traditional combustion methods, which can greatly reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions, which is beneficial to environmental protection.
2. The new bitumen melting equipment adopts a precise control system, which can achieve precise temperature control and flow adjustment, thereby ensuring the best melting effect.
3. Environmental protection: No harmful gases are produced during the electric heating process, which avoids environmental pollution and meets the requirements of modern green buildings.

[2]. Working principle of new bitumen melting equipment
The new bitumen melting equipment mainly includes three parts: heating system, control system and conveying system.
1. Heating system: Use resistance wire as the heating element to convert electrical energy into thermal energy for heating bitumen.
2. Control system: It consists of a PLC controller and sensors, which can automatically adjust the power of the heating system and the flow rate of bitumen according to the set parameters, ensuring the stability and reliability of the melting process.
3. Conveying system: Mainly used to transport molten bitumen to the construction site. The conveying speed and flow rate can be adjusted according to the actual needs of the site.

[3]. Conclusion
In general, the new bitumen melting plant has the advantages of energy saving and environmental protection. It can not only meet the needs of highway construction, but also help protect the environment and meet the requirements of sustainable development. Therefore, this new type of asphalt melting equipment should be vigorously promoted to improve the efficiency and quality of highway construction.

    More Road Maintenance

    From the current point of view, road construction machinery has bottomed out and asphalt meltering equipment has risen rapidly. In recent years, highway construction and maintenance departments have a strong awareness of using asphalt mixing equipment, especially in developed coastal areas such as Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, etc. In addition, these regions have a fast economic growth rate, relatively developed industry, and strong comprehensive economic strength. Therefore, the consumption of asphalt mixing equipments in these regions has always been at the forefront of the country. With the rapid development of highway construction and the increase in demand for asphalt, barreled asphalt has been widely used for its convenient transportation and easy storage. In particular, most of the high-performance imported asphalt used in high-grade highways is in barrel form, which requires an asphalt meltering equipment with fast melting speed, clean de-barreling, and can prevent asphalt aging. my country’s highway construction has achieved remarkable results, among which mechanized production has contributed greatly. Different types of asphalt mixers and bitumen meltering equipment are selected for the characteristics of large highway pavement construction and tight construction period. With the rapid development of my country’s economy, the further extension of expressways, and the large-scale development of western construction, the central and western regions have become new investment hotspots. While paying attention to the market in the developed eastern regions, domestic road construction machinery manufacturers have also increased their efforts to develop the central and western markets, creating new highlights for the domestic asphalt mixing plants consumer market. In summary, my country’s asphalt mixing plant sales market has begun to move westward with the westward movement of investment hotspots. As the market center of gravity gradually shifts westward, the market in the western region is gradually heating up. The self-heating integrated structure, hot air barrel melting and bitumen barrel flipping technology in the asphalt barrel removal equipment are our company’s self-heating integrated structure. The thermal oil furnace used in the old equipment is perfectly integrated with the asphalt barrel removal equipment body, which reduces the volume of the entire set of equipment, greatly reduces equipment investment, saves equipment space and transfer transportation costs.

    Asphalt spreader is an irreplaceable tool for highway maintenance. Asphalt spreader is an irreplaceable tool for highway maintenance. Highway maintenance is divided into four categories according to the nature of the project, scale, and technical complexity: minor repair, medium repair, major repair, and improvement. Specific classification:
    (1) Minor repair and maintenance project: preventive maintenance and repair of slightly damaged parts of the highway and all its engineering facilities to keep them in good condition. It is usually planned and carried out daily by the maintenance team within the annual minor repair and maintenance quota funds on a monthly (ten-day) basis.
    (2) Medium repair project: regular repair and reinforcement of general wear and tear and local damage of highway engineering facilities to restore them to their original state. It is usually planned and implemented by grassroots road maintenance agencies on an annual (seasonal) basis.
    (3) Major repair project: periodic comprehensive repair of major damage to highway facilities to fully restore them to the original design standards, or local improvements and individual additions within the original technical level to gradually improve the highway’s traffic capacity. It is usually organized and implemented by grassroots road maintenance agencies or with the help of their superior agencies according to the approved annual project budget.
    (4) Improvement projects are large projects that improve the technical level of roads and their engineering facilities in stages and sections due to their inability to meet traffic volume and load requirements, or significantly improve traffic capacity through improvements. It is usually organized and implemented or completed through bidding by regional road maintenance agencies or provincial road maintenance agencies according to the approved plan and design budget.

    We need to prepare a lot of work when using modified asphalt equipment. What kind of work do we need to prepare? Next, let me briefly introduce the relevant knowledge points.
    1. Heat transfer oil heats and insulates the modified asphalt equipment and nozzle. After spraying, the asphalt pump and nozzle do not need to be cleaned with diesel. Use high-pressure air to press the asphalt in the pipeline and spray pipe back to the tank, and then blow the nozzle; use heat transfer oil to keep warm, so that the pipeline and nozzle are smooth and unobstructed. 2. Various asphalts can be spread: high-viscosity asphalt, hot asphalt, emulsified asphalt, etc.; the spreading width can be freely adjusted, each nozzle can be controlled separately, and the maximum spraying width is up to 6m. Flexible handheld spray guns can be used to spray asphalt on corners. 3. Excellent thermal insulation performance, average cooling ≤1-2℃/h. 4. Convenient loading and unloading function. In addition to filling asphalt from the asphalt tank port, hot asphalt can be sucked out by itself, and external asphalt can also be pumped and transferred. 5. The modified asphalt equipment is evenly spread, and the nozzle design can be used for triple overlapping spraying.
    The above are the relevant knowledge points of modified asphalt equipment. I hope the above content can be helpful to everyone. Thank you for your viewing and support. More information will be sorted out for you later. Please pay attention to our website updates.
