Case Study Outline:

Application: 140ft. high concrete bunker divided into 4 quadrants with each quadrant divided into 4 hoppers. Liners were installed in 2 of the quadrants.

Liner: TIVAR 88-2

Bulk Material: PRB Coa

Problem: Rat-holing, plugged discharge, and erratic flow conditions. TIVAR 88-2 Liners Eliminate Flow Restriction, Adhesion in Coal Bunker

Background:

Large steel making facility was concerned about slow downs in production.

Problem:

The coal mixture would adhere to the concrete walls and to the glass tiled sloping surfaces. This resulted in a plugged discharge and missed charges in the coal furnace.

Solution:

TIVAR 88-2 liners were engineered and fabricated to fit into existing concrete hopper and discharge chute. Existing glass tile was removed prior to installation of liner

Result:

Large steel making facility was concerned about slow downs in production.

IMPORTANT: Design, fabrication and installation of TIVAR 88-2 lining systems are engineered by Plastruct Canada Inc.
