Looking at the properties of secondary fuels and other parameters in a bid to understand the correct technical solutions required for handling ASF.

WALTER Materials Handling division of ATS Group-France, is a globally renowned brand in the field of design, manufacturing machines for Alternative Solid Fuels (ASF) handling systems since 1990s. In 2005, ATS Group established a state-of-art facility in India at Chakan MIDC of Pune, registered with the name, ATS Conveyors India Pvt Ltd and this facility serves as a global manufacturing hub for the products of WALTER Materials Handling Division.
Properties of secondary fuels, conditions of materials supply, requisite precision of processing, feed position in the kiln, automation requirements as well as the specific operating conditions at cement works all these have to be considered while working out a successful technical solution for handling ASF. It is well known that the properties of the secondary fuels are never constant and are heterogeneous in nature. This requires the use of equipment that is very flexible in operation. Walter Materials Handling division of ATS with its decades of experience in design, manufacturing of ASF handling systems for cement plants has therefore developed suitable equipment specifically for safe and reliable feeding of alternative fuels such as Municipal Waste, RDF, Shredded tires, impregnated saw dust, shredded plastics etc. As a rule the alternative fuels, which are just listed above as examples, all tend to bridge when stored in hoppers or silos and, as lightweight materials, often have bulk densities as low as 0.1 t/m3 or in some cases even less.
After the multiple successfully operating installations, of ATS designed Extractors and Double Flap Valves throughout the Globe in various Cement plants, we are delighted to announce the launch of our below listed new innovative products designed dedicated for addressing very specific customised site requirements evolved in the field of ASF handling based on feedback from different clients.
Major Indian customers of ATS in Cement industry include UltraTech, Dalmia, Birla Corporation, Ambuja, ACC, JK Lakshmi, JSW and many more.

TWIN DOSEAHORSE: This is a unique solution by ATS for Extraction cum Dosing system, used for controlled Dosing of Alternate Solid Fuels in two different feeding points. Additional advantage of this system is that it can be installed in the preheater tower of a cement kiln, very close to the inlet point for excellent dosing response, which is one of the key factors required for the substitution of fossil fuel. Using this system avoids the need of Flow Diverter and Weigh Belt Feeders for dosing in two different feeding point. Side Walls Conveyor: Transfer solution to the Pre-Heater building with a Side Walls conveyor for ASF conveying in a customised route. This can be used to convey AFR material on a high inclination and even for vertical conveying. Air Floating Conveyor: Air Floating Conveyor of ATS is very useful to convey ASF material with zero spillage up to long distances using the minimum investment of time and cost for project installation as well as operation maintenance.
