Live Bottom Bins are an important part of the process for storing and metering bulk materials. Many of these bulk materials are used as alternative fuels for the Minerals Processing, Pulp & Paper and Chemical industries. Typical alternative fuel sources are wood chips, bark, sawdust, tire-derived-fuel (TDF), waste plastic and petroleum coke. These alternative fuels are used to fire boilers, kilns and furnaces.
Live Bottom Bins consist of a storage hopper with multiple screws in the bottom. Hopper storage capacity is dependent on process requirements. The live bottom screws span the length and width of the storage hopper and are designed to remove the bulk materials at a consistent rate to feed the process. The Live Bottom Bins are designed to promote mass-flow and eliminate material bridging or arching in the hopper.
Bootec provides complete Live Bottom Bin systems or replacement screws for existing systems.
