supplied and installed
a single-source solution based on the innovative pipe conveyor technology

2 The conveying system is eco-friendly, requires low maintenance and its enclosed type of construction protects the environment safely from possible material falling down and
emissions

3 The pipe conveyor transports the alter-native fuels from the storehouse to the preheater

4 With its ability to navigate horizontal and vertical curves, the conveyor can be optimally adapted to the terrain

5 The second line transports fuels to the main burner

6 Two successive conveyors, 206 and 190 m long, are used. Each pipe conveyor reaches a capacity of 15 t/h

In order to ensure an economical and sustainable operation, the plant Denizli Çimento Sanayii T.A.Ş. belonging to the cement manufacturer Oyak Group therefore opted for alternative fuels and raw materials to ignite the preheater, the calciner and the main burner. Denizli Çimento decided to invest in an individual system from the AFR systems segment (alternative fuels and raw materials) of Beumer Group, which stores, mixes and conveys differently composed materials, such as shredded waste tyres. The core of this solution is represented by the two pipe conveyors used in this project. These completely enclosed conveying systems ensure an environmentally safe, dust-free and low-energy transport of fuels and raw materials requiring and – as an important factor – a minimum level of personnel.
