Ash Handling

Detroit® Ash Handling Systems are designed for effective, economical and trouble free disposal of ash from units burning coal or solid refuse fuels. Ash from the various collecting points is pneumatically conveyed to the ash storage silo and is unloaded at regular periods for final disposal without creating a dust nuisance. Our systems are a testament to the commitment to innovation, durability, and superior manufacturing standards.

Key Features of Detroit® Ash Handling Systems

Detroit® Ash Handling Systems, along with the Detroit® Ultraflo Mixer, Detroit® Clinker Grinder, and Detroit® VacPak, embody the perfect blend of efficiency, reliability, and environmental responsibility.

  • Robust and Durable: Built with high-quality materials for long-lasting performance, even in the most demanding conditions.

Designed for Operational Excellence

At the heart of the Ash Handling System is a sophisticated vacuum mechanism that draws air through the piping system, creating a highly effective conveying medium. The systems are configured with a positive displacement blower

  • Positive Displacement Blower System: Provides continuous and high-capacity conveying.

Unlike a steam exhauster, this system uses a vacuum breaker valve to interrupt the vacuum, allowing for seamless and efficient handling without stopping the blower motor. Our design is perfect for operations requiring uninterrupted and high-volume ash transport.
