The entire asphalt mixing plant also includes the heating tank, and the quality of the final product is closely related to the correct use of the bitumen heating tank. The following are specific operating specifications for your reference.
In the process of using bitumen heating tanks, it is important to pay attention to its cleaning process, which must not only be carried out regularly, but also strictly follow the process. First use a temperature of about 150 degrees to soften the bitumen and flow it out, and then use a light cleaning agent to completely remove the remaining parts on the equipment wall.

In addition to cleaning, temperature is also the key to the use of bitumen heating tanks. There are certain requirements for temperature. Considering that the chemical properties of bitumen itself are very sensitive to temperature, when the temperature is higher than 180°C, the asphaltene decomposes into The precipitation of free carbon, carbides and asphaltene will seriously affect the ductility and adhesion of bitumen, deteriorating the properties and performance of bitumen. Therefore, the heating temperature and performance of the bitumen heating tank must be strictly controlled when heating it. heating time.
