at FLINTKOTE'S Chicago Heights plant:
13 years continuous operation prove advantages of TURBO asphalt oxidizers Thirteen years ago three General American T U R B O asphalt oxidizers were installed at Flintkote Company's Chicago Heights plant. The units were piped to operate either individually as batch oxidizers for special products or in series for asphalt blowing. They require less than 15 h p each, and each is capable of handling up to 1000 cfm of air. They afford a rise in the melting point of asphalting material, varying from 12 to 20 degrees per hour, depending on the type of flux being produced. For thirteen years the units have been in continuous operation, providing advantages of low power consumption, high air efficiency and accurate control of product specification. The Flintkote installation is typical of T U R B O asphalting equipment installed during a 25 year period to give higher production rates per still, lower power costs and less down time. T U R B O units are safer to operate, need less top steam and less firing because of greater heat generation in the asphalt. Ask for a T U R B O engineer to discuss application of T U R B O equipment to your needs.
