Print 50 for treatment DUST

emulsion 50 PRINT BITAFAL Hoping it will be of interest to other municipalities, we extend the invitation to participate, you can write to

Anticipating the arrival of the heat and low humidity environment to multiply the effect of fine suspended, and have been conducting several test sections in different traffic conditions to evaluate their performance and durability.

Were tested dosages of 0.6 to 1.0 L / m2, with the optimum performance for dust control is at low doses and releasable traffic almost immediately and are not accumulation zones emulsion. For all these tests has been carried out prior sweep the surface and has cared moisture in it was low for better performance of the emulsion.

In one of the test sections was used as 2-6 mm gravillín immediate release protection traffic without the gravillín interfere with curing or penetration depth since the absorption rate at the base is very fast. With this technique it is possible to urban jobs without cutting the road in no time.

After heavy rains last week some edges of the test sections were eroded by rain which allowed us to check the depth of action of the PRINT 50 and enclosed in photographs.

We estimate that the lifetime of the dust treatment performed with this emulsion, due to the depths reached, must be above 12 months.

MIXTURES WARM: 50 ° C at mixing and compaction less.

Following the way of introducing new technology in road construction in the country, Group BITAFAL made a successful stretch of warm mixtures with Techint SACI Route 9. This time was used on CCS S12 mixture envisaged for section a double innovation and a binder modified crumb rubber was used (BITAFLEX AMC 50) with a reducing surfactant additive mixing temperatures and compaction.

Fue posible bajar ambas temperaturas en 50°C, mejorando los promedios de densidad del tramo respecto al realizado sin aditivo a pesar que durante la jornada de prueba la temperatura máxima ambiente fue de 12°C. Por otra parte se lograron aumentos de productividad de la planta y ahorros verificados de Fuel Oil de un 27% con los cuales prácticamente se repaga el uso del aditivo.

the first tire recycling plant is disused Opens - GreenUr

They accompanying the development of technical research of both companies, the MTOP and an engineer of the supplier of the additive which conducted an extensive temperature control and final compaction work by an electromagnetic hydrometer.

The density values were never below 97%, reaching values of 99.5% in some points, quite superior to those evaluated in the section made without additive. Lubricity the surfactant imparts to the binder as well as an improvement in the adhesiveness between the aggregate and the binder contribute to the economy and efficiency during production and paving mixtures.

The following are some of the advantages of incorporating technology tibias mixtures:

Lower operating cost in factory production due to fuel savings
Increased productivity at the plant, due to mix optimization and ease of mixing the aggregate and binder
Greater workability and compactability of the mixture during its extended
Lower emissions of harmful pollutants into the air, to be applied at lower temperatures
More time between the production of the mixture and its application in the field, which can be translated within reach for longer trucks, and the ability to still compact with 6-8 hours between manufacture and compaction field mixture
The possibility of producing asphalt mixtures during cold weather (below 8 ° C)
The possibility of eliminating other bonding agents such as lime or an adhesion improver, and that the additive is an adhesion promoter
More safety and comfort for workers in the plant and in the field, due to the reduction of emissions and harmful particles in the air
The possibility of constructing a pavement with longer lifetime, less oxidized from the beginning, and lower thermal segregation at the time of its spread.

ASPHALT TECHNICAL WORKSHOP 7th.

Monday July 4 took place in the Crystal Tower Hotel Montevideo 7th Asphalt Technical Seminar organized by the Uruguayan Association of Roads in conjunction with the Standing Committee of Asphalt Argentina. It was attended by nearly 110 national road technicians who listened and participated in conferences exhibitors from Uruguay, Argentina and Chile.

The talks were on current issues of technology paving Uruguay from the use of Capeseal, the bitumen stabilized materials as those used in Route 3, to the performance of thin asphalt mixes F10 type, such as that in Ruta Interbalnearia recently.

Mr. Paternostro began with “Cape Seal: General concepts, national specifications and local examples” showing the results of the first sections carried out in Uruguay, both in its good macro-texture and in its impermeability, as well as the specifications currently used. Then, Dr. Ing. Fernando Martínez (Argentina) from IMAE presented "Prediction models of the rheological properties of asphalt binders", in which empirical tests such as penetration, softening point and Brookfield viscosity are used to predict rheological properties of asphalt binders. asphalts quite tightly without the need to use an expensive rheometer (DSR).

Eng. Rosana Marcozzi and Dr. Francisco Morea (Argentina) from LEMIT presented us with “Experiences in Argentina with warm asphalt mix technologies. New tests applied to the characterization of its performance ”, showing the good behavior of this type of mixture in the experiences carried out and opening the debate on its application at the regional level. In Uruguay, only one section was completed in 2012 but we are working from BITAFAL to repeat the experience and draw better conclusions.

During the afternoon Ing. Germán Bavdaz (Argentina) told us about the "evolution of physical parameters of asphalt mixtures after 14 years of service", focused on the performance of such thin mixtures F10 on the Autopista del Oeste, one of the busiest in Argentina.

For closing Eng. Joaquim Kemp (Germany) made an interesting presentation on "BSM -Materials bitumen stabilized. Current state of technology ", a technology that is already being implemented in Route 3 and has a very promising future in Uruguay.
