1

Flow rate measurement for pulverized fuel

Moisture content monitoring of several materials featured in the production process is a significant element that can be leveraged in order to optimize operating parameters and improve its efficiency.

Moisture measurement can be implemented on the following materials:

on aggregates of all sizes, such as sand, that are sent to the rotary kiln via cold conveyors
on recycled materials inserted in the mixing tower.
on bitumen injected in the mixing tower. Requirement: it needs to be dry and cold.

ENVEA’s solution: M-Sens

Customer benefits:

Optimized dryer combustion, reduced gas consumption
Time saving and product quality improvement thanks to online and continuous moisture measurement

2

Material flow monitoring

Due to the harsh conditions within the process, material flow monitoring is essential to ensuring a better yield of the final product and thus increasing the productivity.

ENVEA’s solution: FlowJam

Customer benefits:

Quick detection of production stoppages
Reduced downtime and maintenance

3

Level and limit detection

Minimum and maximum level detection at various points within the asphalt plant is critical.

If silos, bucket elevators, chutes and hoppers are overfilled or insufficiently this will lead to blockages and plant downtime.

ENVEA’s solution: ProGap

Customer benefits:

Online warning of materials level
Quick detection of production jams

4

Filter performance monitoring

Optimizing filter performance is key to ensuring the smooth running of production facilities. The ability to identify or predict filter failure ensures production is kept at its required demand.

ENVEA’s solution: LEAK ALERT

Customer benefits:

Reduced downtime
Increased productivity
Reduced filter replacement costs

5

Emission monitoring

Continuous measurement of particulate emission flow and concentration enables to meet and exceed national and international standards.

That can be achieved through ENVEA’s ElectroDynamic™ range of products designed for use in harsh environments.

ENVEA’s solution: STACK, VIEW or STACKFLOW range, DUST TOOL software

Customer benefits:

Compliance with Emission Limit Values (ELV)
Reduced environmental impact

6

Ambient air quality monitoring or/and process leak detection

Real-time odour monitoring (ex: H₂S), particulate leaking and PM sizing can help to better identify environmental issues as well as protecting the workforce/neighbours from exposure to hazardous material.

ENVEA’s solution: Cairsens^® micro-sensors (H₂S and PM), AirSafe
