Objective
KWS, NBM and DEUTAG have formed a consortium together with their Finish industrial partner Kallotikone which wishes to introduce a half-hot mix to Europe and to demonstrate that it represents an energy-efficient process, a substantial reduction of energy consumption of ca. 55% will be possible compared with the current techniques used in hot asphalt stations. This energy saving will have been realised by using an innovative steam infection technology reducing temperature from 160°C to 90°C without loss of quality of the end product.L%
The energy-efficient half-hot mix asphalt process will lead to substantial energy savings, since the use of steam injection at a max. temperature of 90°C leads to substantially less fuel consumption being required to heat one ton of asphalt granulate than is required in a conventional hot mix asphalt installation (160°C) and therefore there will be an energy-saving (fuel oil) of 55% compared with the currently used technology. For the high grade re-use of the asphalt granulate in base courses and the road bases of the asphalt pavement, the granulate is mixed with a special bitumen emulsion combined with cement. This results in a high-recycled materials.
