Mechanical conveyors

Drag chain conveyors, screw conveyors, elevators, and wet ash conveyors, are designed to withstand heavy loads and abrasive conditions. These systems enable efficient handling of bottom ash, fly ash, bedding materials, and additives at different stages of the processes. Our mechanical conveyors also play a key role in material recycling processes.  

Pneumatic conveyors

Our high-pressure conveyor (ELMO pulse dense phase) is the most energy-efficient and low-wear conveying method for handling bottom and fly ash. Blower conveying is suitable for materials with lower wear potential and for injecting additives to ensure even spreading. 

Cooling and drying

Kopar’s cooling and drying solutions, such as KRC coolers and cooled drag chain conveyors, offer the energy industry an efficient way to control high temperatures during processes. These solutions ensure that bottom and fly ash are cooled quickly and energy-efficiently. 

Drying drums can be used to dry wet sand so that the sand can be further processed and used as boiler bedding material.  

The cooling solutions combine high-performance heat transfer, compact design, and durability, making them an excellent choice for plants looking for an efficient solution to optimize their processes. The maximum efficiency of the cooler opens up new possibilities for utilising the generated thermal energy. For example, in thermal power plants, the water supplied to the district heating network can be heated with the energy released in the cooling process, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the plant. 

Crushing and screening

Our crushing and screening solutions are designed to ensure material consistency and processing efficiency. Ash crushers and screens are particularly suitable for sorting and recycling bed materials, improving the efficiency of incineration processes, reducing material wastage, and helping to achieve a more sustainable operating model. 

Silos and equipment

Kopar’s silo systems offer a complete solution for storing and managing both wet and dry materials. Thanks to a reliable dosing system, additives, and fuels are precisely fed into the process, reducing material loss. Carefully designed silo systems meet the high safety and environmental requirements of modern plants, making them an essential part of process management in the energy industry. 

The energy industry is changing faster than ever before. Stricter legislation, increasing demands for environmental responsibility, and technological innovations challenge companies to develop their processes to be more efficient, sustainable, and safe.  

At the same time, the use of solid fuels is becoming more diverse, and material handling solutions now demand more flexibility and precision. Solid fuel combustion always produces ash, which must be carefully cooled before handling or processed further. For example, efficient cooling of fly ash enables its safe storage and transport, which is necessary in many countries due to stricter regulations. Meeting these challenges requires in-depth expertise and advanced technologies.

Kopar’s team combines technical expertise, long experience, and innovative thinking to provide customers with solutions that improve plant efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and reduce costs. Tailor-made solutions ensure that the customer’s specific needs are considered from the start, whether it is ash cooling, material conveying, or recycling.
