Plant Automation
Always on Top- Cranes for Automatic 24-hour Operation in Refuse Incineration Plant
|
The conversion of two refuse cranes into fully automatic systems marks the first 24/7 solution implemented by Demag Cranes & Components in Copenhagen, Denmark. The additional use of a scanner-guided height measurement system also achieved a significant increase in handling capacity. |
Stacking, Blending & Reclaiming
Paddle Feeder Discharge Arms - A Study on Performance Characteristics
|
Rotary paddle/plough feeder performance and efficiency depends to a great extend on the shape of the plough. This paper provides calculations for the design of such feeders, illustrated by an example, to increase their capacity and lower the power consumption. |
Composite Powders
Aluminium Matrix Composites - Effects of Powder Compositing on SiC Distribution
|
Aluminium matrix composites are materials with very promising characteristics. Various additive materials and the different ways to combine additives and base material were tested to improve the overall characteristics. |
Metal Detection
Accurate Measuring and Monitoring Enhances Solids & Bulk Product Recycling
|
Accurate measurement and monitoring can enhance the solids and bulk materials recycling process and help businesses become more competitive by improving their environmental performance, strategic planning, public perception and bottom line. |
Sorting
Glass Recycling
|
Glass is used widely as a high quality, inert packaging material. A large percentage of the raw materials used consists of recycled glass. This paper describes the development and adaption of sorting and screening systems to meet the ever growing requirements. |
Fire & Explosion Protection
How to avoid the "Big Bang" of Bulk Handling
|
Dust explosions in processes handling combustible materials are responsible for many deaths and injuries every year, as well as millions of pounds worth of damage to plant and equipment. In this article, explosion panel manufacturer Elfab Ltd, presents possible safety measures. In particular, they focus on venting, probably the simplest and most common course of action. |
Size Reduction
Ball-milling of Composite Powder - Cathode Production for Alkaline Batteries
|
Improving the capacity and longevity of alkaline batteries is since long an aim of intensive research. An approach for the production of the Kathode is presented here. |
Wear & Abrasion
Wear in Bulk Materials Handling
|
The economic significance of the costs caused by wear is enormous. Improved work on the problems related to wear is only possible with an interdisciplinary cooperation of process technology, contact and fracture mechanics, materials science, construction and last not least with practice. |
An Innovation in Raw Material Comminution
| The high pressure roll mill, HPRM, a newly invented size reduction equipment, has been recently added to the list of comminution machines and is classified as a highly efficient equipment. Although the HPRM is now already being operated in several full-scale size reduction plants, it has not yet been fully characterized. |

Roll Press Briquetting Helps Chemical/Mineral Processors to Squeeze More value from Materials, improve Handling
| In many chemical and mineral processing industries once money has been invested both in mining (or buying) the raw material and in the equipment and energy needed to prepare it for sale discarding fines will not only waste part of that investment, but might even add cost in transportation and possibly dumping charges. |
