Electricity has long been generated from fossil fuels like coal, oil, and gas. However, alternative fuels such as biomass and municipal solid waste are gaining popularity, because they convert waste into usable energy. Many biomass products come from renewable feedstocks such as corn, sugarcane, and wood. Sawdust, wood chips, and shavings from lumber production even become pellets used as alternative fuel.
The ACT Group prevents buildups and blockages while reducing dust, spillage, and carryback. From railcar, barge, or ship unloading to bunker and silo cleaning, our products and services keep material handling clean, safe, and productive. ACT flow aids knock down buildups in bunkers and silos. Our railcar connectors and unloading products also improve bottom-dump hopper car unloading.
Transfer point products — impact cradles, support cradles, and skirting — reduce spillage and dust from conveying grain, wood, or corn. In addition, EVO® transfer point products are track-mounted, which simplifies installation and improves worker safety. Primary belt cleaners remove carryback. Cartridge-mount secondary cleaners remove even more, and their compact design fits close quarters.
Because biomass dust is combustible, industrial ventilation is a key part of any safe handling system.
