| | Active prevention of fires caused by damaged batteries during alternative fuel production |  |
|
| One of the most pressing recent issues in the mechanical processing and conversion of waste into solid recovered fuels (SRF) is the high fire risk. This is largely due to a constantly increasing number of lithium batteries in the general waste collection. If damaged, a chemical reaction is often initiated, which leads to incredibly high temperatures. [Photo: Lindner/Mayer]

| | To reduce the use of expensive primary fuels like coal and oil in the energy-intensive cement production, operators focus increasingly on alternative fuels and raw materials. BEUMER Group offers tailor-made systems for the entire material flow chain – from receiving and unloading the delivery vehicle to storing, sampling and conveying the materials. For precise and controlled feeding, the system provider has now developed a screw weigh feeder suitable for a variety of materials.

| | Limestone storage: Euromec/VSR Blaster sword nozzle solution | |
|
| In a cement plant, the crushed limestone is stored as bulk material in a dedicated storage building. Buzzi Maryneal cement plant operations were affected by a certain instability due to a pretty common issue: the stored crushed limestone, under specific conditions, got stuck and did not naturally flow through the dedicated vibrating feeders.

| | Belt conveyor danger zones | |
|
| In bulk material handling applications, a conveyor is typically a massive, complex and extremely powerful system. It is usually constructed of rubber belting, set on rolling idlers, wrapped around large steel drums at each end and driven by a high-torque motor. As such, a conveyor presents enough danger zones that the entire system should be considered a hazard. [Photo: Martin Engineering]
