Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates generally to processing of materials; and more specifically, to apparatus and methods for processing of materials, for example, bituminous materials.
  • bitumen and asphalt are used for construction purposes, such as for construction of road pavements, bituminous waterproofing products, roofing felts, and the like.
  • Asphalt is typically a mixture of construction aggregates, for example, crushed stone, gravel, sand and so forth whereas bitumen is a by-product of crude petroleum that is used to bind the asphalt together to form asphalt concrete used for construction.
  • bitumen is a by-product of crude petroleum that is used to bind the asphalt together to form asphalt concrete used for construction.
  • a majority of existing asphalt and bituminous materials can be recycled, which provides cost benefits by reducing a need to purchase raw materials as well reducing the cost associated with waste transport and disposal. Moreover, recycling asphalt also reduces the need to use non-renewable resources, such as oil and gravel, and further reduces waste sent to landfill, as well as reducing the emissions created through asphalt processing plants.
  • asphalt recycling is performed via in-place (i.e. onsite) and offsite methods.
  • Deteriorated asphalt materials are generally recycled via two processes, namely, onsite recycling (e.g. both hot and cold techniques) and offsite recycling.
  • Hot-onsite recycling involves softening the surface through heating and then relaying the existing road.
  • Cold in-place recycling involves removing a road portion to a certain level, pulverizing it, mixing it with an additive, and then the recycled asphalt is laid, compacted, and resealed.
  • onsite recycling e.g. both hot and cold techniques
  • Hot-onsite recycling involves softening the surface through heating and then relaying the existing road.
  • Cold in-place recycling involves removing a road portion to a certain level, pulverizing it, mixing it with an additive, and then the recycled asphalt is laid, compacted, and resealed.
  • One of the problems associated with such in-place (onsite) and offsite methods is that such methods require use of multiple equipment to perform asphalt recycling. Therefore
  • the machine for extruding and molding refuse-derived fuel includes a casing mounted on a working table, a pair of screw shafts arranged within the casing, and an extrusion and molding die arranged on the discharge end of the casing so that waste supplied to the casing is extruded and molded through the pair of screw shafts and the extrusion and molding die.
  • the machine for extruding and molding refuse-derived fuel is characterized by: that a washing net panel is arranged between the casing and the extrusion and molding die; that the washing net panel is classified into a first panel and a second panel; that one side end of the first panel and one side end of the second panel are connected to each other; and that the connecting rod of a cylinder is connected to the other side end of the second panel.
  • the washing net panel slides by the cylinder so that any one panel between the first panel and the second panel is inserted between the casing and the extrusion and molding die, and the other panel is pulled between the casing and the extrusion and molding die.
  • the present disclosure seeks to provide an apparatus for processing a material.
  • the present disclosure also seeks to provide a method of processing a material in an apparatus.
  • the present disclosure seeks to provide a solution to the existing problem of inefficient processing of materials.
  • An aim of the present disclosure is to provide a solution that overcomes at least partially the problems encountered in prior art, and provide the apparatus and the method for efficient and cost-effective processing the material to be further used for construction purposes.

Thus, the present disclosure provides an improved apparatus and method that is cost effective, time saving without any compromise in quality of end product (i.e. the processed material), and thus efficient.
  • an underlined number is employed to represent an item over which the underlined number is positioned or an item to which the underlined number is adjacent.
  • a non-underlined number relates to an item identified by a line linking the non-underlined number to the item. When a number is non-underlined and accompanied by an associated arrow, the non-underlined number is used to identify a general item at which the arrow is pointing.
