Horizontal screw conveyor for ash – 7047

Horizontal screw conveyor for ash. Manufactured as a distribution screw conveyor to afterwards fill a battery of big-bags used for collection of ash.

This horizontal screw conveyor is an example of a screw conveyor  where ash is easy to transport.

The screw conveyor is designed for a capacity of 2 t/h.

When is ash easy to transport in a screw conveyor?

1. Ash is easy to transport when it is completely cooled down
2. In most cases the ash is not aggressive and you can use carbon steel for the screw conveyor

BEMA has solved many different cases involving screw conveyors for ash transport. Ash can be tricky to transport and also have characteristics that require certain design features.

Examples of BEMA screw conveyors transporting ash

1. Ash from a straw fired power plant
2. Horizontal screw conveyor for high temperature ash
3. Screw conveyor for ash transport with built-in water tank

We recommend that you read these cases and look on the solution part of web-site to see all different project BEMA has solved with screw conveyors for ash transport.

Designing the screw conveyor for ash correctly will give a life time of minimum 10 years unless it is a very special case.

It is easy to make wrong design assumptions and in these cases the life time will be reduced significantly.

In BEMA we have our own design department. Our engineers and technicians are capable of designing screw conveyors for ash with a long life time in cooperation with the customer.

What to be aware of when you specify a screw auger for ash?

1. The capacity in terms of m3/h
2. The temperature
3. Aggressivity of the ash
