Nkumushinga wibihingwa byahinduwe na bitumen, tumaze imyaka myinshi dukora mubikorwa byo gutanga no gutanga ibikoresho bya bitumen byahinduwe nibindi bicuruzwa bifitanye isano. Turabizi ko uko ibicuruzwa byakoreshwa kose, tugomba gusobanukirwa byimazeyo ibihingwa byahinduwe na bitumen, kimwe nukuri kubijyanye no kumenya ibikoresho bya bitumen byahinduwe. Hano, kugirango turusheho guteza imbere abakiriya neza, abatekinisiye basangira: Nubuhe buhanga bwo gufata neza igihingwa cya bitumen cyahinduwe?
1. Ibihingwa byahinduwe na bitumen, kwimura pompe, moteri, no kugabanya bigomba kubungabungwa hakurikijwe ibisabwa nigitabo gikubiyemo amabwiriza. Ibiranga ikigega cyo gushyushya bitumen ni: gushyushya byihuse, kurengera ibidukikije no kuzigama ingufu, ubushobozi bunini bwo kubyaza umusaruro, nta gukoresha cyane nkuko ukoresha, nta gusaza, no gukora byoroshye. Ibikoresho byose biri mubigega byo kubikamo, byoroshye cyane kwimuka, kuzamura, no kubungabunga. Nibyiza cyane kuzenguruka. Ibicuruzwa mubisanzwe ntabwo bishyushya bitum ishyushye kuri dogere 160 muminota irenga 30.
2. Umukungugu uri mumasanduku yo kugenzura ugomba gukurwaho rimwe mumezi atandatu. Urashobora gukoresha ivumbi kugirango ukureho umukungugu kugirango wirinde umukungugu kwinjira mumashini no kwangiza ibice. Ibikoresho byahinduwe bya bitumen byuzuza ibitagenda neza byubushyuhe bwo hejuru bwo gushyushya amavuta yumuriro hamwe nigihe kinini cyo gushyushya no gukoresha ingufu nyinshi. Icyuma gishyushya igice cyashyizwe muri tank ya bitumen kibereye kubika bitumen no gushyushya muri transport na sisitemu ya komini.
3. Amavuta adafite umunyu agomba kongerwamo rimwe kuri toni 100 ya bitumen yamenetse ikorwa na mashini yifu ya micron.
4. Nyuma yo gukoresha igikoresho cyo kuvanga bitumen cyahinduwe, igipimo cyamavuta kigomba kugenzurwa kenshi.
5. Niba ibikoresho bya bitumen byahinduwe bihagaritswe umwanya muremure, amazi yo mu kigega n'umuyoboro agomba kuvomwa, kandi buri kintu kigomba kuba cyuzuyemo amavuta.
