Rawlings Manufacturing Completes Biomass Waste Recovery System
June 23, 2009
Rawlings Manufacturing has completed one of the first wood waste recovery systems to introduce biomass as fuel to heat cement kilns at Mitsubishi Cement in Lucerne Valley California. The system is capable of processing 50 TPH and storage of up to 250 Tons of premium biomass fuel to be burned along with coal to reduce the amount of greenhouse emissions. The biomass will replace part of the annual tons of coal the plant would otherwise have used.
The Rawlings Electric portable wood hog is a rugged, high performance hog that can reduce various types and sizes of contaminated wood waste to biomass fuel. Once the wood waste has been processed through the hog, the metal is removed by an overhead self cleaning magnet and then conveyed to a walking floor stoker storage system.
To ensure the optimal size end product the wood waste is then processed over two vibrating finger screens and then transferred to the kilns via a blower system.
Rawlings Mfg. has been manufacturing and installing the patented Rawlings Wood Hog and wood waste recycling systems for over 30 years. Both vertical and horizontal models are available in stationary, portable, and skid mounted systems.
