InGlobal Resources, New Delhi focuses on sourcing advanced technology; which can produce artificial lightweight Aggregate (LWA) from fly ash, a waste product of coal burning power plants. The product is an excellent alternative to natural quarried aggregate, being strong, light and consistent.
InGlobal Resources has its main office in NewDelhi and at present exclusively represent Honcho Block/Brick making machine based on Flashy and also offers Coal Gasifier Producer Gas Fuel equipment from Lead horse, China along with Gas Burners.
To build-up a Fly Ash LWA plant envisaging full utilization of Fly Ash resources, InGlobal Resources provides the followings in co-operation with China Co. to customers for the entire project:
– Testing for making LWA from customer fly ash;
– Tailormade Process design;
– Equipment sourcing , procurement and supply;
– Plant Installation, start-up, commission and training;
– Initial plant trial operation and production.
InGlobal Resources sourced Fly Ash LWA Project proposal
The process uses above 90% Fly Ash as major raw material mixing with small volume additive, carbonaceous solid fuel and water. The additive can be clay, and coal contributes the carbon depending on the particle size and loss of ignition in fly ash. After agglomeration and pelletizing, the green pellets will be transferred to a sinter machine for sintering. The physical characteristic of LWA product is superior to Natural Aggregates.
TYPICAL PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF LWA PRODUCT:
Aggregate Size : 5~16 mm (The size is adjustable by process)
Bulk Density : 650-850 kg/m3
Particle Density : 1250~1450 kg/m3
Aggregate Strength : >5.0 MPa (Variation as per size)
Water Absorption : < 15 %
Capacity Available for LWA Plant
Annual Capacity (m3) | 100,000 |
Fly ash consumed, Per year (tons) | 85,000 |
Budget equipment price for whole plant(USD) | |
Size of building (m2) | 1200 |
Power load (kw) | 720 |
LWA Properties and Applications:
Energy-Saving and Environmental Protection:
Energy-saving in production process:- Electricity is used for ignition in the process. After the first layer of sintering bed is ignited, the rest of green pellets will be sintered by the self-contained carbon in fly ash with draft air. Gas/Oil can substitute electricity wheresoever available and at economic cost.
Energy-saving products:- Fly ash LWA has an excellent thermal insulation property. The concrete made by fly ash LWA has thermal insulation ratio 0.118-0.6w/m.k, which is about 48%-86% lower than regular concrete.
Environmental Protection:- Fly ash is a by product of coal burning power plant. Most of fly ash is dumped as waste material. Using of InGlobal Resources offered technology would enable handling large quantity of fly ash, thereby not only saving large volume of farming land but also protecting air from pollution.
Dust collector is used in the process to ensure air exhaust to meet environmental protection.
