About Counter Flow Drum Mix Plant

Nilang Asphalt Equipment offers Counter Flow Technology to upgrade the continuous type Drum Mix Plant capacities 90 & 120 TPH. CFD technology is environmentally friendly and helps to reduce carbon emission in the environment. Specialised burners help to reduce the operating cost and provide opportunity to use RAP material to save virgin aggregate. CFD Plants are available with two pollution control options - Bag House Filter System & Wet Scrubber System (water system).

Precision Mixing with Advanced Features

This plant utilizes a drum-type, continuous counter-flow mixing method for uniform asphalt production. Its fully insulated drum and automated sensors for humidity maintain consistent quality in every batch. Energy efficiency is achieved through a helical gear drive and a choice of direct or thermal oil bitumen heating, suited to a range of operating conditions on-site.

Comprehensive Dust and Emission Control

A multi-stage dry cyclone or fabric filter system ensures dust and particulates are efficiently captured, keeping emissions well within international pollution control norms. Operators can choose between 3 or 4 aggregate feeders, and the filler unit provides precise level indication, guaranteeing consistent performance batch after batch.

Versatile Operation and Seamless Integration

Compatible with multiple fuel types-including the LNG option-and available in stationary or skid-mounted portable models, this plant adapts to project requirements across India. Integrated PLC-based controls and optional SCADA automation allow remote monitoring and precise process management for dealers, suppliers, and traders seeking reliability and ease of use.
