Caer en cenizas volantes

Cada vez más de su flujo de residuos de ceniza.

Basado en una encuesta anual realizada por la Asociación Americana de la ceniza de carbón (ACAA) entre 1966 y 2011, más de 2.3 billion short tons of fly ash was produced by coal-fire utility boilers. Of that total amount, sólo sobre 625 million tons of that fly ash was used in a beneficial manner, sobre todo para la producción de cemento y hormigón. The remaining 1.75 billion tons went to landfills or filled ponded impoundments. While use rates for recently generated fly ash have increased considerably in more recent years, aproximadamente 40 million tons is still disposed of annually.

That’s not only a huge loss in terms of the production value of the wasted fly ash, it’s also a terrible burden on the environment. It’s one of the reasons why Equipo ST & Technology came up with a better way to separate dry materials such as fly ash through a proprietary Triboelectrostatic benefication process.

Nuestro environmentally responsible, water-free system doesn’t require the use of chemical or biologicals, so it can liberate particles less than 500 micrones de tamaño. The result is a greater, more valuable yield of materials for our clients, as well as a considerably lower amount of waste going to landfills.

It’s one of the reasons why ST Equipment & Technology was chosen as a key supplier in the construction of the New World Trade Center. We produced thousands of tons of high quality fly ash that was used in the creation of superior concrete that is extremely strong and durable.
