Ash Handling

Fly Ash Handling

Wherever products are burned it is necessary to have an energy efficient ash handling system, especially in a power station environment where large quantities of pulverized fuel ash (PFA) are created. Such ash can be a considerable environmental nuisance as well as being awkward to handle due to its abrasiveness and hydroscopic characteristics. With the growing environmental awareness that hydraulic ash removal systems are costly in the use of water and land, emphasis has been placed on finding an environmentally safe system.

The unique and comprehensive range of products and technologies from Schenck Process for the Power industry include several innovative methods to handle Ash products to increase the operating efficiency of the power generation process. Utilising a range of technologies from Mechanical Chain and Belt conveyors to Pneumatic conveying with Dense Phase technology, Schenck Process has a proven solution available regardless of plant size.
