Services
What is it?
Flyash is a fine, powdery material that consists of small spherical particles. It is a byproduct of coal combustion in power plants and is collected by electrostatic precipitators before it is released into the atmosphere. Flyash contains various minerals and metals and is often used as a supplementary cementitious material in concrete production. Its high pozzolanic properties make it valuable in the construction industry.
Choosing the Best Trailer:
The best choice of trailer for transporting flyash is typically a pneumatic tank trailer. These trailers are specifically designed to handle powdered materials like flyash. They feature:• Airtight Sealing: Pneumatic tank trailers have airtight seals to prevent moisture ingress and particle emissions, ensuring the integrity of the cargo.• Unloading Efficiency: Pneumatic trailers are equipped with air compression systems that facilitate efficient unloading of the flyash at the destination.• Multiple Compartment Options: Some trailers offer multiple compartments, allowing for the transportation of different materials in a single trip, if needed.
