Get PriceWorking Principle of Horizontal Bitumen Tank
The working principle of a horizontal asphalt tank involves the utilization of a heating system to maintain and control the temperature of the stored bitumen. The tank typically consists of a horizontal structure equipped with a heating mechanism, often using thermal oil, electric heaters, or direct burners. That is, using the thermal oil furnace as heat resources and heating oil as heat medium, the oil circulating pump raises the bitumen to needed temperature.
Application Scope of Horizontal Bitumen Tank
There are two types of heating configurations for bitumen storage:
1. The overall heating type: This configuration is suitable for large bitumen storage facilities.
2. The overall and partial integrated heating type: This configuration, which includes both overall (complete) and partial integration of heating systems, is suitable for small and medium-sized bitumen storage facilities or an asphalt plant.

Characteristics of Horizontal Bitumen Tank
1. Efficient and Eco-friendly Combustion
Incorporating a globally renowned brand of fuel burner, the horizontal bitumen storage tank achieves high combustion efficiency and environmental friendliness.
2. Stable Combustion
Ensures thorough and stable combustion, guaranteeing the quality of bitumen heating in the tank.
3. Automatic Temperature Control
Our horizontal storage tanks allow for pre-set target temperatures; the machine automatically heats to the set temperature, shuts down automatically upon reaching it, and restarts heating when the temperature decreases.
