Ngaphansi kwesimo samanje sokuthuthukiswa okuqhubekayo kwezimboni ezihlukahlukene, i-emulsion bitumen plant iye yathuthukiswa futhi yasetshenziswa. Siyazi ukuthi i-emulsion bitumen iyi-emulsion ewuketshezi ekamelweni lokushisa elakhiwe ngokuhlakaza i-asphalt esigabeni samanzi. Njengempahla yomgwaqo entsha evuthiwe, yonga amandla angaphezu kuka-50% kanye no-10% -20% wetiyela uma kuqhathaniswa netiyela elishisayo lendabuko, futhi inokungcola okuncane kwemvelo.

Ngokwefomu lamanje, imishini yebitumen ye-emulsion isetshenziswa kabanzi kubuchwepheshe obusha kanye nezinqubo zokunakekelwa kokuvikela, njenge-fog seal, uphawu lwe-slurry, i-micro-surfacing, ukuvuselelwa okubandayo, uphawu lwamatshe oluchotshoziwe, ingxube ebandayo kanye nezinto ezibandayo zokuvala. Isici esikhulu kunazo zonke semishini ye-emulsion bitumen ukuthi ingagcinwa ekamelweni lokushisa, futhi asikho isidingo sokuyishisa ngesikhathi sokufafaza nokuxuba, futhi akudingeki ukushisa itshe. Ngakho-ke, yenza ukwakhiwa kube lula kakhulu, igwema ukusha kanye nezibazi ezibangelwa itiyela elishisayo, futhi igwema ukufuthwa kwesitimu se-asphalt lapho kugandaywa izingxube ezishisa kakhulu.
